Whether you’re hiking, diving, or simply navigating daily life, these durable timepieces are built to withstand it all.

From rugged outdoor designs to vintage classics brimming with history, these watches offer more than just the time – they’re designed to endure. Here are our top picks for the toughest watches.

Louis Vuitton x Kari Voutilainen LVKV-02 GMR 6

The Louis Vuitton x Kari Voutilainen LVKV-02 GMR 6 is the epitome of luxury, craftsmanship, and travel-inspired design. This collaboration between Louis Vuitton and the master watchmaker Kari Voutilainen is more than just a timepiece; it’s a piece of history, blending artistry, tradition, and innovation.

The LVKV-02 GMR 6 combines Louis Vuitton’s travel heritage with Voutilainen’s expert craftsmanship. Its 40.5mm case, made from tantalum and platinum, showcases the high standards of both brands. Inspired by Louis Vuitton’s iconic trunks, the “Escale” case adds a touch of travel elegance. Each lug is hand-polished, and the case side takes four hours to satin-finish, creating a smooth blend of matte and shiny textures.

The gold dial blends both brands’ artistry, featuring a diamond-polished hour circle by Maryna Bossy and hand-guilloché detailing. It includes miniature painting, engraving, and enamel work with a day/night disc in Louis Vuitton’s signature saffron and blue. A hidden Monogram flower in the enamel adds a refined touch of elegance.

The LVKV-02 GMR 6 features a manual-winding mechanical movement, hand-finished and assembled in the Voutilainen workshop. Known for its two direct-impulse escapement wheels, the movement enhances energy efficiency, longevity, and accuracy. It also includes a retrograde power reserve display and a second time zone with a 24-hour format – perfect for global travelers.

Limited to just five pieces, the LVKV-02 GMR 6 is an extremely rare creation. Each watch is paired with a bespoke Louis Vuitton travel trunk, handcrafted using the Maison’s signature techniques. The trunk, designed to store the watch, doubles as a work of art, further enhancing the collection’s exclusivity.

The Louis Vuitton x Kari Voutilainen LVKV-02 GMR 6 isn’t just a timepiece; it’s a testament to exceptional craftsmanship, elegance, and functionality. With only five pieces in existence, this collaboration represents the pinnacle of artistry in watchmaking.

Discover the artistry behind this rare masterpiece – explore the Louis Vuitton x Kari Voutilainen LVKV-02 GMR 6 now at Louis Vuitton Malaysia.

M.A.D.Editions M.A.D.2 by Eric Giroud

The M.A.D.2 by Eric Giroud is a stunning evolution of the M.A.D.1, blending horological craftsmanship with a striking design inspired by the electric energy of the 1990s club scene. The M.A.D.2 carries forward the legacy of its predecessor, the M.A.D.1, but with a new twist that pushes boundaries even further.

The M.A.D.1 made MB&F watches more accessible, but the M.A.D.2 takes things up a notch with bold design and no limits on creativity. Designed by longtime MB&F collaborator Eric Giroud, it’s inspired by the vibrant club scene of 1990s Lausanne – specifically MAD and Dolce Vita – where music, culture, and imagination ruled. That same energy is captured in every detail of the M.A.D.2.

The M.A.D.2 stands out with its sleek, almond-shaped stainless steel case that feels as smooth as it looks. Its hour and minute subdials resemble DJ turntables, while the centre dial mimics vinyl grooves – a clear tribute to music. Even the stroboscopic band nods to the iconic Technics SL-1200, capturing the spirit of classic club gear.

Piaget Drops Sunlight Panorama Jewellery Collection: A Shining Tribute To Radiance

One of the most unique features is the bi-directional jumping hour complication, which adds an element of surprise for the wearer. The watch also features a gyroscopic off-centred rotor that can be seen from both the front and the back, offering a 360-degree view of its intricate mechanics.

There are two versions of the M.A.D.2: an Orange edition, reserved exclusively for MB&F’s loyal “Tribe” members and friends, and a Green edition that will be available through a raffle system. This follows the same strategy used for the M.A.D.1, where access to these exclusive timepieces is highly sought after and, inevitably, highly competitive.

Eric Giroud’s M.A.D.2 design is a tribute to the vibrant ‘90s club scene and vinyl culture. From turntable-inspired dials to nods to Technics gear, every detail echoes that era’s energy. A custom track by DJ Mandrax completes the nostalgic vibe.

The M.A.D.2 is a bold step forward for M.A.D.Editions, marking a shift from its original concept as a one-time project. After the unexpected success of the M.A.D.1 and its raffles, the brand has entered a new phase. Created by Giroud, the M.A.D.2 moves away from Max Büsser’s original vision, signaling a new era for the brand. The future looks promising, with more surprises likely to come from this experimental brand.

In summary, the M.A.D.2 by Eric Giroud isn’t just a watch; it’s a celebration of creative rebellion, 90s nostalgia, and the electrifying pulse of club culture, all wrapped up in a visually striking timepiece that merges cutting-edge design with horological innovation.

The orange edition is exclusive to “The Tribe” for CHF2,900 (RM13,891) + VAT. The green edition, available via raffle with 2,000 pieces in the first batch, will be drawn soon – check M.A.D.Editions’ Instagram for updates! For more info and to secure yours, click here.
