In the world of Louis Vuitton, watches hold a special place. The brand is known for its innovative designs, rooted in its rich heritage. Their creativity seems to have no bounds, but it is not on looks alone on which they have built their success. What powers their watches is equally essential, and Louis Vuitton has a profound preference for complicated movements, especially the tourbillon, as the following three watches prove.

La Esmeralda is an important name in the history of Girard-Perregaux, as it was given to a pocket watch they made for the "World's Fair" of 1889 in Paris. This exquisite timepiece, finely engraved and fitted with a tourbillon and three gold bridges, won the gold medal. Although currently again in the museum collection of Girard-Perregaux, it was initially sold to Porfirio Diaz (1830-1915), then the President of Mexico. As the manufacture is celebrating its 230th anniversary, it felt appropriate to bring back the spirit of this unique pocket watch in a modern-day creation.

It is an interesting question to ask; when does Zenith reach its zenith? So far, it hasn't happened yet, and it is doubtful that it will happen in the near future. Today the brand launches two watches that give a new spin on already existing creations. What they have in common are mouthwatering movements encased in transparency and spiced up with a generous dash of blue.

Although they both have a completely different heritage, are Bulgari and MB&F not that different in the way that they approach watchmaking. While they are firm believers in craftsmanship and have a keen eye for details, they are both also innovators. This innovation can be technical advancement, but also in terms of design, both brands love to push the envelope. So when they decide to collaborate, true magic happens.

2022 is already starting on a high note, as Greubel Forsey is releasing the first piece of their new collection for next year. While watches from this brand are always exceptional, the Balancier S2 is even a bit more. It is continuing the legacy of complex sports watches that the brand established with its predecessors, the GMT Sport and the Balancier S. What the brand did with this watch was to distill the best parts of the original Balancier and make them even purer.

Panerai is mainly known for its large, oversized watches, but it has also introduced smaller-sized creations in recent years. They now continue on this path with the new Luminor Marina Quaranta. As its name already gives away, with Quaranta meaning 40 in Italian, have these new watches a diameter of 40mm. While significantly smaller than some of their siblings, these new watches are unmistakably Panerai.

In 2001, one of the greatest museums for watch enthusiasts opened its doors in Geneva, Switzerland. It was the vision of Philippe Stern, father of Thierry Stern, the current President of Patek Philippe, a position he held himself at the time. What makes this museum so incredible is the submerging experience that it offers. This starts with the building, located at the heart of Geneva, dating from 1919-1920, and restored meticulously.

The Ferrari 296 GTB is the Italian supercar marque's newest entry in their Berlinetta sportscar family and a replacement to the F8 Tributo.

Hublot is a brand with many different qualities, and one of them is to create diamond set watches unlike any other. This tradition started effectively in 2007 with the first One Million $ model. In the years that followed, Hublot expanded its offerings in this field, with each watch highlighting the art of high jewellery in a different, and often innovative, way. This tradition continues with the latest models of Hublot, like the Big Bang Integral Tourbillon High Jewellery.

While Chopard has been one of the leading luxury brands for decades, writing history with their jewelry and watches, its manufacture is surprisingly young. Only a quarter of a century ago, they fully began with developing and producing their own movements. Since then, these activities have rapidly increased and made Chopard one of the most respected and leading Haute Horlogerie brands when it comes to complicated movements. To mark this occasion, the brand is launching two limited editions, underscoring its achievements in those 25 years.

Ferretti Group’s Custom Line have launched a 30 metre superyacht, Navetta 30 that is packed with extraordinary amenities.

Making a complicated watch is one thing, but giving it a unique, novel appearance is something entirely different. It means that you master the mechanical challenges needed to create such a watch and control them to such an extent that you can determine the look and position of the complications on the dial. Ulysse Nardin is a brand that loves to play with these possibilities, and for them, it has become part of their DNA. An excellent example of this is the Marine Mega Yacht, an ocean-going watch that uniquely displays its rich heritage.

Past, present, and future are now united in the new Air Command that Blancpain launched today.

Only Watch has always been a charity with a unique approach. They fund research to find a cure for Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy by organizing a biennial auction for which the world's leading watch manufacturers donate a piece unique. This weekend, Christie's auctioned the 53 creations in a packed Palexpo in Geneva, raising CHF 30 million, over 32 million US dollars.
