Louis Vuitton : Tambour

In 2002, Louis Vuitton entered the luxury watch industry with the first model in the Tambour line, a masterpiece of design simplicity and technical innovation. With its drum-shaped (tambour in french) case, Swiss engineering and innovative aesthetics, this watch became an instant classic.

This book, published on the occasion of the twentieth anniversary of the creation of Tambour, traces the origins of the line's design, the history of Louis Vuitton watches, and the precision work of the Geneva watchmakers who created the brand's reputation for excellence. Featuring 400 illustrations, some of which from the Vuitton archives, the book also contains a catalogue raisonné of the Tambour models and comments from leading watch connoisseurs.
