If it is worn daily, even carefully,
I think the dial fo the Convergence can only end up with many hairs or even scratches.
I agree with you, LV would be enough, or at least only the brand name on the dial.
For the same reason, I've never really understood why the dial of the Royal Oak Jumbo has the brand name at 12 and AP at 6 o'clock: one of the two would be enough, imo.

Louis Vuitton watches: a hands-on experience
Because Louis Vuitton owns La Fabrique du Temps , a manufacture founded by two watchmakers I admire, Michel Navas & Enrico Barbasini (who have participated in the creation of Laurent Ferrier's micro-rotor ), I wanted to see in the metal some of their ...
Who are their customers target?
Thanks for the Review, superb as always and the thoughts. I very much share your views regarding branding, as a watch addict. I’m wondering who they actually target, namely if they want to speak to horologically minded people or rather their fans which ar...

I couldn't agree with you more.
The Escale is the only piece here with a truly attractive dial, and that as a result of that particularly good combination with the meteorite and platinum case. I even like the Submariner GMT with the meteorite dial, and I've never been a fan of the Sub o...
The meteorite dial and platinum case are definitely what makes the first example of the Escale successful.
If it wasn't for Michel Navas & Enrico Barbasini, I don't think I would've paid attention to LV watches. But knowing how great watchmakers they are and the role they played in the creation of Laurent Ferrier's micro-rotor (which is called "FBN" for Fe...
Good! You reminded me....
of their collective history and 'origin'. I used to know this, but have admittedly forgotten in the meantime.... I used to own one LV messenger bag, and when I realized I wasn't really using it, I wanted to sell it, and the salesperson at one of their fla...
