Louis Vuitton Tambour Diving New Watch II

The drum shaped Tambour case, which the watch takes its name from remains, but design wise that's about it. Perhaps in an attempt to further advertise the watch's actual purpose above and beyond complimenting the wearer's fashionable attire, Vuitton have thoughtfully added a divers flag motif for the subdial, as if to say, this is a dive watch!
When I first looked at Louis Vuitton Tambour Diving Watch , I liked it. It's gorgeous. It's masculine and it's back to entice you with its good looks It's Indeed the Louis Vuitton Tambour Diving II.


The Tambour Diving II uses the case size case and movement as the original, but with a more sport, less "luxo-diver" look. While The original Louis Vuitton Tambour Diving watch played with colors like brown and complimented the watch with elements such as mother-of-pearl - the Diving II has a more sober look meant to emphasize activities like boat racing. The subsidiary seconds dial has turned in to a square, and looks more like a pennant flag. Hands have been skeletonized (with a different color for the hour and minute hand), while hour markers are mostly round and done with lots of lume.
For men, the case will be 44mm wide and the women's model will be 39.5mm wide. Aside from the steel models, an 18k red gold model will also be available for men. Like any good diver, the case will be water resistant to 300 meters. Inside the watch will be an ETA 2895 automatic movement. The dial colors will be either the pictured black or a metallic blue. My only problem with it is that the hands are too short. Overall a beautiful watch that is not so much a replacement for the original Tambour Diver as it is a more simple looking supplement.
How, it's charm attracts you? if you had missed the first iteration of this Louis Vuitton watch, here's your chance to own one again.
