The Louis Vuitton Escale Collection is a vibrant and colorful line that reflects a playful and artistic spirit. Launched as part of the brand’s Spring/Summer collections, the Escale Collection typically features bold and bright designs inspired by the art of Japanese shibori, a traditional tie-dye technique. Evoking the spirit of travel, the latest Louis Vuitton watch collection, Escale, features intricate details that echo those found adorning the Maison’s iconic trunks. Merging watchmaking expertise with an iconic heritage, La Fabrique du Temps Louis Vuitton reveals time-only three-hand models in an array of color and material variations for the first time on the Escale collection. The complex dials are punctuated with gold indices and studs, inspired by the metallic pieces and lozine nails of the Louis Vuitton trunks. Rendering exceptional visual texture, the grained finish center dial on the rose gold versions are an ode to Louis Vuitton’s iconic Monogram canvas. Technical Specifications:
