Louis Vuitton Timepiece

Louis Vuitton has stepped their technical game up with the company’s new watch collection. The collections is created completely in-house, from conception to completion at its La Chaux de Fonds factory in Switzerland. Tambour Mystérieuse is the most high-end timepiece from the new collection. The watch has a round dial and is composed of a mechanism that is encapsulated by two sapphire crystal discs, allowing the watch itself to float within the bezel framing it (THIS WATCH IS REAL SERIOUS!). The collections offers a wide array of customizations including monogramming the second hand with the wearer’s initials, selecting gemstones to place on the platinum, white, yellow or red gold case and a choice of leather straps. The masterpiece comes encased in a miniature Vuitton trunk and takes about a year to craft, which justifies its $265,000 price tag. The collection includes few other styles ranging from $8,224 to $10,612. Alright SAY WORD is now taking donations for the watch, if your entertained by the site, give a buck. SAY WORD!
