Louis Vuitton Tambour Collection
As a certified watch snob, I have to admit I was slightly intrigued when I saw this latest release from a "fashion brand” and jumped at the opportunity to attend the event at the local boutique: I have never bought anything from Louis Vuitton. But they qu...
Thanks for sharing these great pictures my friend! While the blue dial looks amazing I am still ambivalent about this release
