Louis Vuitton has plenty of tricks up its watchmaker’s sleeve, as it proves by unveiling an authentic mechanical gem once again celebrating the passion for travel. Considered by connoisseurs as the most accomplished of all horological complications, the minute repeater is beautifully staged within a tambour or drum-shaped case in white, yellow or rose gold. The elegant dial featuring the dial’s characteristic design features thereby offers travellers a chance to tell the time set to music. Equipped with a dual time-zone indication, the Tambour Répétition Minutes watch reverses the traditional roles of the displays by indicating the place in the time where the traveller finds himself by means of the large hour and minute hands; and showing “home time” through a central dial aperture. Likewise, the hand-wound movement does not chime the time appearing on the large display, but that of the starting location. An original indication that evokes the art of travel in a spirit of ultimate luxury : each watch may be personalised with initials, a crest or a raised element replacing the number 4 on the dial.
