The Louis Vuitton X De Bethune LVDB-03 Louis Varius Project Is A Star Studded Collaboration For A Wild Watch And Clock
The Louis Vuitton X De Bethune LVDB-03 Louis Varius Project introduces a limited edition travel watch and a pair of exquisite Sympathique clocks, showcasing a collaboration between the luxury brand and Swiss independent watchmaker De Bethune. The LVDB-03 GMT Louis Varius watch is crafted in blued titanium, featuring a unique design with a 45mm case, platinum lugs, and a manual movement that includes advanced functionalities like a second time zone and a day/night indicator. Limited to just 12 pieces, the watch is accompanied by a specially designed clock that can wind and set the watch, highlighting the intricate craftsmanship and innovative engineering that characterize this collaboration. The LVDB-03 Sympathique clocks are striking marine-style desk clocks made from titanium and meteorite marquetry, weighing around 10 kg. Each clock not only serves as a timepiece but also functions as a support system for the LVDB-03 GMT, capable of winding and setting the watch without needing to remove it from the strap. With a price tag of €4,000,000 for the watch and clock set, this collaboration represents the pinnacle of luxury watchmaking, blending artistry and functionality while reflecting the distinctive traits of both Louis Vuitton and De Bethune.
