Official description

The 2019 Escale Spin Time for the Only Watch auction is a delicate and technical object: a tribute to traditional and exceptional fine watchmaking craftsmanship.

Made using Grand Feu champlevé enamelling and painted by hand, the dial is a creation by Anita Porchet, one of the greatest independent enamellers in fine watchmaking.

The dial required 200 hours of work and used two specific traditional techniques which are only mastered by very few artisans in the world: Grand Feu champlevé enameling and miniature painting.

The watch houses LV79 caliber, displaying the time in a playful manner using rotating cylinders. Each cylinder is set with diamonds, a process which required 40 hours of work. The patented self-winding movement was entirely developed and assembled by La Fabrique du Temps Louis Vuitton and highlights the expertise of Louis Vuitton watchmakers.

This exceptional creation is presented in a custom Monogram canvas watch trunk — also hand-painted.
