After crafting trunks for travellers in the 1830s, Louis Vuitton, the French trunk-maker and founder of the eponymous brand, opened his own workshop in 1859 following the commercial success of his highly durable luggage with secured locks that are used by the brand to this day. The brand first stepped into watchmaking by producing travel clocks in the 1920s, followed by a collaboration with IWC Schaffhausen on the Monterey II Alarm Travel in 1988. In 2002, the brand formally stepped foot into the world of horology and launched the Tambour watch featuring in-house movements. In 2011, Louis Vuitton acquired La Fabrique du Temp , renamed La Fabrique du Temps Louis Vuitton, which unites the various watch manufacturing departments - La Fabrique des Boîtiers, La Fabrique des Cadrans, and La Fabrique des Mouvements - of the brand to create high horology timepieces. Since 2023, Louis Vuitton’s watches portfolio has undergone tighter curation and redesign, and today its collections include the Escale, Tambour, Tambour Convergence, Tambour Taiko and Tambour Street Diver.
