Today, we’re back with our Collector’s Series column, where we leave the stage to a collector, sharing his views on one of his watches. And what a watch this is! The ultimate customization partners, this is how we could summarize this piece that results from the collaboration between BCHH and Andersen Genève. Today’s collector, Jonathan […]
When it comes to Louis Vuitton watches, we can clearly see two categories. On one side is the so-called core collection, luxury watches composed of traditional complications and styles, such as the Tambour Street Diver.

Forget what you think about luxury branded watches. What Louis Vuitton does with its haute horlogerie collection, created at La Fabrique du Temps, is nothing else than spectacular, mesmerizing and rather unique within the spectrum of the industry. It is next-level high-end watchmaking, creativity and with an almost unique level of customisation. The 2021 Louis […]

Following in the footsteps […]
