Description
Louis Vuitton surprised the watch world when it unveiled its sublime Flying Tourbillon emblazoned with the coveted “Poinçon de Genève”, or Geneva Seal. This is a proud milestone for Louis Vuitton watches, which now enter a select coterie of watchmakers whose work has been blessed with the seal that vouches for everything from chronometric precision to the decoration of the movement.
The hours and minutes dial, positioned above the tourbillon and set on a smoky sapphire crystal disc, feature V-shaped hour markers at 3, 6, 9 and 12 o’clock. The grey metallized sapphire dial allows for a voyeuristic view of the gears and barrel, which provides the hand-wound movement, LV104 calibre, with a power reserve of 80 hours.
