In the previous article, it already became clear that the Tambour was off to a brilliant start. It quickly turned into a design icon within the collections of Louis Vuitton and showed its versatility. This became even more evident in the years to follow, as the watch was fitted with impressive complications and innovative technology.

The Tambour was introduced only 18 short years ago, in 2002, yet its impact has been profound. For Louis Vuitton, it was the watch that put them firmly on the map as being a watchmaking 'maison.' The way that the Tambour did this is almost unprecedented, as the model proved to be one of the most versatile designs in the history of watchmaking. It could just as easily be turned into a display of technical excellence, featuring complex mechanical movements, as housing the latest technology as a state-of-the-art smartwatch.

The watch collection of Louis Vuitton has always been carefully curated to ensure that it truly represents the DNA of the brand. This has always been a mix of traditional craftsmanship combined with forward-thinking design. Louis Vuitton started this tradition with its very first watch-collection, back in the 1980's, which was designed by the famous Italian architect Gae Aulenti. She not only created watches on occasion but was also responsible for transforming Musée d'Orsay in Paris from a train station into one of the most renowned art museums in the world.

Louis Vuitton has always been a brand that marches to its own beat. This is especially true for their watch collection. You can never confuse one of their creations for anything else but a Louis Vuitton. They are not only highly original in terms of design, but also know how to capture the essence of the brand down to the last detail. This is also the case with the two chronographs that join the Tambour-collection, one of the signature designs of the brand.
