Louis Vuitton, Tambour Diving, Automatic in Pink Gold. A special and unique edition, N°1. Notes A suitcase-maker and a craftsman in travel goods since 1854, Louis Vuitton has always followed those who leaped through space. Today, Louis Vuitton helps you measure time. Nothing changes, but everything is in motion. From punctuating short journeys, voyages and expeditions, Louis Vuitton becomes fastened to your wrist for life. Louis Vuitton has left his mark on his time in the most original way: unprovokingly assertive, unaffectedly elegant, and remarkable by its very discreteness. A host of details can be discovered, with time, details that escape those who look too fleetingly, slyly companionable allusions to the brand's heritage. Looks of understanding exchanged by those in the know: the design of a number, the colour of the dial, the finish of the stitching, the design engraved on a case, the significance of the colour of a hand, and then you will realise that a century and a half is very little time in which to achieve perfection.
