The French luxury leather goods house, established in 1854, did not enter the world of watchmaking until 2002! It had the wisdom to call upon the expertise of specialist manufacturers such as Dubois Dépraz and La Joux-Perret before launching its first model, the Tambour. Louis Vuitton later set up its own premises in La Chaux-de-Fonds and incorporated the expertise from la Fabrique du Temps, a prestige watchmaking workshop based in Geneva, in 2011. “LV” is now increasingly involved in the design and production of movements.
