The Louis Vuitton De Bethune Varius Project has been debuted as a collaboration between the brands to showcase a series of luxury horological items for discerning collectors alike to admire.
The collaboration starts off with the LVDB-03 GMT Louis Varius timepiece that has a 45mm blue titanium case with polished platinum lugs along with a De Bethune DB2507LV manually-wound mechanical movement. The watch will offer a five day power reserve and will allow view to the movement through the rear casing for admiring between wears. The collaboration also includes the LVDB-03 Sympathique Louis Varius clock that can also be used to wind and synchronize the timepiece between wears.
The Louis Vuitton De Bethune Varius Project is limited to 12 timepieces and two clocks priced at £324,000 and £3.45 million each, respectively.
