The new Tambour Jacquemart Minute Repeater showcasing Louis Vuitton’s daring design codes through its jacquemarts mechanism, required two years of development.
The dial, resembling a modern stained-glass window, unveils a flying tourbillon movement developed at La Fabrique du Temps Louis Vuitton, with the esteemed Poinçon de Genève seal. This journey into the blue signifies Louis Vuitton’s dedication to mastering traditional expertise, placing craftsmanship at its core since its inception. By selecting plique-à-jour enamel, an ancient technique seldom practiced today, Louis Vuitton seeks to revive its prestige, collaborating with expert enamellers to achieve a stunning blue gradient. The intricate enameling process, involving precise application without backing, demands months of meticulous effort.
The resulting dial, featuring repeated interlocking Vs for Vuitton, showcases a luminous reinterpretation of plique-à-jour enamel, further accentuated by intricate white gold detailing. Each dial undergoes up to six layers of enamel and around 100 hours of work.
The avant-garde case enhances the dial’s beauty, casting infinite nuances onto the watch mechanism. Moreover, the Voyager boasts a hand-finished skeleton movement and proudly bears the prestigious Poinçon de Genève seal, underscoring its exceptional quality and mastery of contemporary High Watchmaking. The Voyager Flying Tourbillon “Poinçon de Genève“ Plique-à-jour really stands as a testament to Louis Vuitton’s visionary spirit and relentless pursuit of excellence since its founding in 1854.
