Perhaps not as well-known for its watch engineering as it is its fashion and luggage offerings, the new Louis Vuitton Tambour Mysterieuse watch makes a strong case for itself. Inspired by movements originally conceived by Jean-Eugene Robert Houdin back in the 19th century, Louis Vuitton’s appropriation carries on the legacy as the watch features on mobile sapphire discs which create a stunning visual arrangement between the mechanics and the markers around the dial. The watch is also fully customizable to the users preferences including parts of the strap and dial.

    at the fiddich,

    that is the point of a automatic watch, is to wide it you dont see people paying 250k for a quartz watch that is pointless, and when you wear it it wides itself, do your homework this isn’t a g shock.

    250k and you still have to wind it every 8 days.

    Thats art. LV has done it again. They turned the modern watch concept on its head. Literally.
