Louis Vuitton brings the world to your wrist with its world city designer timepieces.
Known for making stunning, luxurious and eye-catching fashion, the folks over at Louis Vuitton create the visually sleek Escale Worldtime Watch that features 24 of the world's most renowned cities, right on the face of your wrist. The dial is hand painted, using 38 different beautiful colors, sitting on an equally beautiful white gold 41 mm case with lugs that resemble the brackets on the corners of Louis Vuitton trunks.
The luxurious timepiece boasts new features that includes losing extra hands and replacing them with three separate rotating dials. Only 20 of these limited edition timepieces will be available, at a whopping price of $67,500 -- a price that is suggestive of the value of the world cities it encompasses.
