Louis Vuitton’s new Escale Spin Time watch will be an object of curiosity to watch collectors thanks to the way it combines two innovative concepts to form an artistic new timepiece. The Escale Spin Time features the brand’s spin time complication encased in the distinctive Escale watch case. The dial features spinning cubes at the indices. Two faces of each cube feature have been hand-painted with colorful miniature nautical flags, while the remaining two feature numerals for 12 and 24-hour timekeeping). Every hour, one of the cubes spins to reveal the day’s hour while a white hand indicates the minutes. Effectively, the dial of the watch changes with every passing hour, revealing the different flags.
This watch is available in two variants: one with a two-tone caseband and bezel made from pink gold and brushed titanium while the other features a case of titanium and white gold. It has a 42 hour power reserve and is water-resistant to 30m. The watches come with a black alligator strap with a vivid yellow lining. Its lugs and crown reference the iconic steamer trunks that are at the heart of the Louis Vuitton brand.
The watch is set to hit stores later this year.
