Maison Alcée at the Louis Vuitton Watch Prize

Maison Alcée is pleased to announce that it has been nominated for the Louis Vuitton Watch Prize, which celebrates the art of independent watchmaking.

Among more than 1000 applications, the Persée Nuit clock was selected among the 20 semi-finalists of the Louis Vuitton Watch Prize by the Fabrique du Temps.

It is an honour to be at the side of renowned watchmakers.
A recognition for the path we propose, that of becoming a builder of a pretext to measure time or rather to understand it.

The Louis Vuitton Watch Prize Committee of Experts

The creations will now be evaluated by the Committee of Experts to determine the 5 finalists in February 2024.
This committee is made up of journalists, craftsmen, artists, collectors and watch enthusiasts of all nationalities.

Watchmaking is the art of daring to play with the concept of time.
It is with these words that Louis Vuitton’s presentation for this Grand Prix begins.
This sentence sums up the values of our House.

Watchmaking is a craft that holds a special place among other professions of excellence.
It is a practice that induces an almost philosophical approach to the mysterious and fascinating concept of time and requires a degree of scientific understanding that is unusual among other so-called manual professions.

The Louis Vuitton Watch Prize is a philanthropic and independent initiative proposed by Mr. Jean Arnault, Director of the Watchmaking Division of Louis Vuitton.
Through this prize, the Fabrique du Temps intends to celebrate the know-how and audacity of independent watchmaking, encourage craftsmen and entrepreneurs, and support future generations.
