The new Louis Vuitton Escale Worldtime returns as a masterpiece of hand painted horology #LVMHWatchWeek2026
By SENATUS Magazine | 6 February 2026

A decade after its initial debut, the Escale Worldtime makes a triumphant return, reimagined as a pinnacle of high craftsmanship for the modern voyager.

This 2026 revival is more than a simple update; it is a sophisticated evolution that marries the House’s storied trunk-making heritage with the extreme precision of La Fabrique du Temps.

Offered for the first time in weightier, prestigious platinum, the collection introduces two distinct expressions of global time.The first model features a miniature-painted worldtime ring, a labor-intensive process where an artisan applies 35 colors one by one using a fine-tipped brush. It takes an entire week to complete a single dial, resulting in a vibrant tapestry of 24 flags that honor historical motifs like the Gaston-Louis Vuitton 'V'.

The second reference, the Escale Worldtime Tourbillon, elevates this artistry further with Grand Feu enamel flags. These miniature wonders undergo over 40 firings at temperatures reaching 840C to achieve their luminous depth.At the heart of these treasures lies the new in-house LFT VO 12.01 movement, providing 62 hours of power reserve and a jumping hour disc for effortless clarity. The tourbillon variant features a central flying cage shaped like a Monogram flower, a kinetic heartbeat that rotates every sixty seconds.

Encased in 40mm of polished platinum and set with a discreet saffron sapphire on the case back, these timepieces are the ultimate companions for those who find the romance of discovery in every stopover.
