The World Cup effect? ​​Just days before the start of the 2026 World Cup, Louis Vuitton officially announces the auction of a new work at Sotheby's , from June 9 to 18, 2026.

Designed to appeal to collectors and lovers of rare objects, this unique clock is the result of a collaboration between the leather goods workshops of the Parisian brand, its Haute Horlogerie manufacture - La Fabrique du Temps Louis Vuitton, and the Swiss movement manufacturer L'Épée 1839 , acquired by the LVMH group just two years ago.

Presented in a monogrammed trunk, the piece takes the form of a football in a skeletonized interpretation enhanced with nails and brackets emblematic of the trunk-making world.
