Louis Vuitton Escale Time Zone Blue – Modern World Time Watch with Artistic Craftsmanship
The Louis Vuitton Escale Time Zone returns in a refreshed and more refined edition: the Escale Time Zone Blue.
This new version replaces the multicolor city emblems of the original model with a blue-focused palette, dramatically improving
legibility while retaining the Escale collection’s signature artistic character. As one of the most distinctive world-time watches
on the market, the Louis Vuitton Escale Time Zone seamlessly blends horology, travel culture, and the brand’s luxury DNA.
Elegant 41mm Case with Louis Vuitton Trunk DNA
The watch features a 41mm stainless steel case with refined, polished lugs that sit comfortably on the wrist.
At the junction of the case and lugs, Louis Vuitton incorporates its iconic trunk-inspired rivet design,
a subtle tribute to the heritage of LV’s historic travel trunks. The hexagonal crown at 9 o’clock enhances the watch’s
distinctive personality, while the slim 8.8 mm thickness makes it an excellent everyday luxury timepiece.
Blue Lacquered Dial with 24 World-Time Zones
The highlight of the Louis Vuitton Escale Time Zone is its multi-layered blue lacquered dial.
The outer two rings display city abbreviations and symbolic motifs representing 24 global time zones. Every emblem is rendered
in two gradient shades of blue—one deep, one bright—creating visual depth and maintaining LV’s unique illustrated aesthetic.
Intuitive World-Time Reading
One of the strengths of the Louis Vuitton Escale Time Zone is how intuitive the display is.
The city positioned at 12 o’clock represents the home time zone. For example, if the watch shows “Beijing 10:10,”
that indicates the local time in Beijing. The inner ring shows the 24-hour format for all other world-time zones.
The crown at 3 o’clock allows quick and simple adjustment of the city at the top of the dial.
LV 87 Automatic Movement
Powering the Escale Time Zone Blue is the Calibre LV 87 automatic movement, offering a smooth 28,800 vph beat rate
and a 42-hour power reserve. The case ensures 50 meters of water resistance, suitable for daily wear.
The blue alligator strap—featuring a vibrant orange lining—adds a stylish touch that reinforces Louis Vuitton’s strong design language.
A Modern World Time Watch with Cultural Expression
The Louis Vuitton Escale Time Zone brings together practical GMT world-time functionality,
creative illustration, and unmistakable LV identity. Unlike traditional world-time watches that take a purely technical approach,
the Escale series embraces fashion, travel heritage, and artistic craftsmanship. This new blue edition enhances readability without
sacrificing the character that made the original Escale Time Zone so recognizable.
