Manufacturing time is quite the literal expression of Louis Vuitton's dedicated watchmaking division in Meyrin, Switzerland as La Fabrique Du Temps as it is affectionately known, translates into The Time Factory. The atelier, which was acquired in 2012 and later officially inaugurated in 2014, is modelled after Louis Vuitton's vertical integration strategy as each major division is housed in dedicated state-of-the-art facilities. From the legendary Asnières atelier for trunk making to the ultra-modern leather workshop in Ranch Rochambeau and the fine perfumery housed in Les Fontaines Parfumées, craftsmen and women were offered space for their creativity and technical skills to flourish under the best conditions possible. Within the halls of La Fabrique Du Temps is an ensemble of horological métiers and watchmakers led by the highly respected tag-team duo of Michael Navas and Enrico Barbasini responsible for the masterful creations that include the Tambour Moon Mystérieuse Flying Tourbillon and Voyager Minute Repeater Flying Tourbillon. This year Louis Vuitton is proud to unveil its latest take on the Escale Spin Time and Tambour Outdoor Chronograph GMT.
