Louis Vuitton Tambour Moon Flying Tourbillon – available in green or yellow sapphire cases

The Louis Vuitton Tambour Moon Flying Tourbillon is each crafted from a single piece of colored sapphire, in two striking fluorescent hues. These two new High Watchmaking creations are the first of their kind to carry the prestigious Geneva Seal.

These timepieces are housed in green or yellow sapphire cases measuring 42.5mm in diameter, with a height of 9.9m. It is complemented by horns and a crown made of titanium with black sand-blasted PVD treatment. The 12 letters forming the Louis Vuitton logo are engraved on the outer side of the concave case middle of the Tambour Moon, just like the 12 hour markers on the inner flange – both lacquered to stand out from the sapphire case.

Water-resistance is ensured by the use of a transparent gasket positioned between the case middle and the screwed caseback.

Worn on a black or green alligator strap, the new sapphire Louis Vuitton Tambour Moon Flying Tourbillon watches are each limited to 20 pieces. They are priced at around EUR 400,000.
