Louis Vuitton is helping fans to keep a tab on time in 2015 in the most luxurious and fashionable manner by unveiling new Louis Vuitton Jewelry Watch Collection. Inspired by the brand’s 2015 Cruise show, the dazzling range of timepieces celebrates the multitude of colours spanning over one signature Ramage pattern.
Offered in Pink, Blue and Red, each watch from the collection sports a diamond-studded dial and bezel. The highlight of the design is the miniature hand painting and the snow-setting of the diamonds which the French luxury house has accomplished by combining modernity and know-how of Métier d’art techniques.
The nature-based Ramage pattern is brought to life with the miniature hand-painting technique which does full justice to the colors and intricate details involved. The technique which is mastered by Louis Vuitton La Fabrique du Temps Manufacture requires fastidiousness as the miniature painting is applied by hand on the pattern. It takes around 30 hours for the craftsman to paint one such dial.
The timepiece gets a luxurious uplift with the snow-setting of the diamonds on the dial. The snow-setting is achieved on the dial to enlight the miniature hand-painting and each diamond is meticulously selected and placed to create the perfect snow effect. Bringing the snow diamond-setting and the miniature hand painting techniques together gives rise to an optical illusion with luminosity, depth and graphic design.
Each model can be strapped on to the wrist with a complementing alligator strap. Louis Vuitton Jewelry Watch Collection Cruise 2015 is available in the Louis Vuitton ‘s stores.
