In our daily life we are surrounded, and one can even say bombarded with objects and artifacts that will elevate our lives, make us happier or more interesting and very few of these objects do actually live up to their expectations.

Welcome in the trunk table clock by Louis Vuitton, an encounter of two worlds; travel and watchmaking. It is the latest addition from the brand and today’s object of desire.

Rather than just an accessory, it is a timepiece showcased in its tailor-made trunk. The table clock, made to the same high standards as a watch, reproduces the Tambour Moon Dual Time concave dial. Similarly, it features a double time-zone, essential for globetrotters, and a bright dial displaying colored flags. These emblematic Louis Vuitton symbols call to mind the customized patterns of the trunks of bygone days.

As for the 80 mm-diameter hemispheric steel case suspended in its trunk, it draws inspiration from 18th century navy chronometers – indispensable, high-precision tools for long-distance navigators, allowing them to calculate longitude. A counterweight makes this table clock automatically turn towards the person opening the trunk for the utmost visibility. Once extracted from its case, it will keep this orientation when placed on a table or desk.

The trunk, a travel icon since the House was founded in 1854, acts as a case. Covered in Monogram Eclipse canvas on the outside, the trunk’s interior is lined in microfiber, reproducing the flags on the dial and the Louis Vuitton signature.

With its symbolic trunk, the Trunk Table Clock sits perfectly in tune with Louis Vuitton’s heritage and further celebrates the exceptional Art of Travel and will elevate any interior it is placed in.
