Travel back in time to the dawn of artisanal craft as Louis Vuitton reprises the ancient plique-à-jour enamel technique in modern-day watchmaking. At the heart of the Louis Vuitton Voyager Flying Tourbillon “Poinçon de Genève” Plique-à-jour lies an enamel masterpiece developed by Byzantine artisans in the 4th and 5th centuries. The exceedingly painstaking technique takes Louis Vuitton artisans 100 hours to perfect a single dial as enamel paint is dextrously filled into the dial cutouts and fired multiple times to achieve transparency, lustre, and colourful nuances that are second to none.
Behind the stained glass dial lies the LV 104 Calibre bearing the “Poinçon de Genève” seal as a testament to the intricate hand-polishing and -decoration applied to all 168 individual components. The preciousness of the watch is further elevated with a 41mm platinum and white gold case.
