Maybe 5 years ago you could bash LV watches but Jean Arnault has taken their watches to the next level. He has 2 of the world's greatest watchmakers working for him and gives them Carte Blanche to create whatever is in their imagination. This one I have no interest in but if I had the cash flow, the 3 Escade Cabinet of Wonders series would be mine.

He says it all๐Ÿ‘†butโ€ฆ i think that may drop after walking out the store also gotta be real careful with that case! They make some dope looking watches though!

Zelos has done this years ago. The Mirage 8 day Sapphire case.

A bargain at twice the price ๐Ÿ˜‰

ยท

That's straight GARBAGE ๐Ÿคข

Never thought I would say this, but I prefer the ones from Jacob&Co ๐Ÿ˜

Stick to making overpriced hand bags,and clothes for pretend gangsters,yeh they made some nice looking watches other than that,reminds me of a strippers shoe ๐Ÿ˜‚should have come in the game on Ralph or gucci prices.

And it looks way better to my eyes too.

LV have had a mega exclusive off catalog, private client thing going for a few years. Now it's just coming into the light. The thing about these watches:

They are designed to appeal to 10 people in the world.

They are generally sold before they are even made.

Personally I kind of like them.

ยท

Better ways to spend that much.

Now if you are Jeff Bezosโ€ฆ. ๐Ÿ˜‰

I think LV should stick to making fake leather suitcases and hand bags. But some mushroom-tip head will buy it for sure.

Theyโ€™re amazing in my eyes! I think anything six figures and above from a well known fashion house, seems to attract snobbery.

That or begrudgery for the target market who collect them.

Their Tambour line is seriously impressive too. Look at that micro rotor below! I firmly believe that if you didnโ€™t see the front at first, nobody would be knocking the watch.

I see these specials above in your post as similar to Bulgariโ€™s bespoke pieces. High fashion brands with lots of funds to spend and watchmakers to invest in. If it means more watchmakers get a career boost then have at it! Bear in mind, they wonโ€™t work there forever. Theyโ€™ll have an impressive CV to bring to other brands too.
