1. It's inspired by the New Wave bag.
New Wave was one of last season’s most Instagrammed bags with a distinctive quilted wave pattern that forms a ‘V’. The watchmakers at La Fabrique du Temps Louis Vuitton in Geneva were tasked to recreate this playful motif on the dial of the Tambour, the French maison’s first ever watch. They managed to replicate it, quilted wave effect and all, but not with actual leather. Instead, the white dial is stamped with a special tool, the V’ signature prominently featured in the middle.
