Since its acquisition of the high-end watchmaking manufacture- La Fabrique du Temps, Louis Vuitton has begun working seriously on inventive complications. In 2014, Louis Vuitton presented a new worldtimer featuring an creative display. The Escale Worldtime has a yellow arrow pointing to 12 o'clock which always points to local time, and the time in other cities can be read by lining up the city with the corresponding hour on the 24-hour ring.

Initially, the names of the cities and corresponding emblems were hand-painted on the dial and was cased in white gold. However in recent years, Louis Vuitton has switched the case to a combination of white gold and titanium, and the city rings are no longer painted by hands. Therefore, Escale Worldtime with white gold case and hand-painted dial as the present watch is an amazing asset for every watch collector and will be increasingly valuable and collectable.
