For the 10th anniversary of Only Watch, Louis Vuitton celebrates the push towards a better future with the Tambour Einstein Automata Only Watch 2023.
Designed, developed, and manufactured at Louis Vuitton’s watchmaking workshop in Geneva, the Tambour Einstein Automata is the result of some of the most recognised horological and artisanal talents in the world today.
A dial of remarkable craftsmanship, incorporating the techniques of micro-sculpture and grisaille enamel, depicts the likeness of Albert Einstein in one of his most notorious photographic and mischievous portraits, sticking his tongue out in an unexpected moment of levity.
Within the iconic Tambour case beats the LV 525 calibre whose movement brings the dial to life through 4 animations, providing time on demand.
The story of the dial continues on a hand-painted Louis Vuitton trunk, giving pride of place to this exceptional watch.
HISTORY OF THE BRAND
Since 1854, Louis Vuitton has brought unique designs to the world, combining innovation with style,
always aiming for the finest quality. Today, the House remains faithful to the spirit of its founder, Louis Vuitton, who invented a genuine “Art of Travel” through luggage, bags and accessories which were as creative as they were elegant and practical. Since then, audacity has shaped the story of Louis Vuitton. Faithful to its heritage, Louis Vuitton has opened its doors to architects, artists and designers across the years, all the while developing disciplines such as ready-to-wear, shoes, accessories, watches, jewellery and fragrance. These carefully created products are testament to Louis Vuitton’s commitment to fine craftsmanship.
