WHAT’S
Been eyeing the Louis Vuitton tambour watch for almost 2 years now, and finally decided to get it. I figure that since I’m a ‘one watch only’ kinda girl, it would be worth it, especially since I wear it everyday. I wore my previous watch for 5 years daily! I bought it off a colleague and decided that I wanted to change the band to a steel one, since it’s more sturdy and will last “a lifetime” – according to the Louis Vuitton SA π I think it suits the watch better, and I’d never be able to keep a leather band clean..
The boutique was really great and let me swap the pink leather band for the steel one. It looks so much better IMHO! And best yet, it’s custom-fit to my wrist.. and I can take it back to the boutique to make it bigger in summer if I choose. I really really love it and it’s a great *ahem* investment piece since it will last forever. I know people treat Rolex and Omega as investment pieces, but for the price, I’d much rather my Louis Vuitton – a brand that I actually love, instead of spending $$ on some random brand just because it’s expensive. I can’t stop staring at the watch on my wrist now… I LOVE IT! *happy dance*

So sleek!
“Louis Vuitton” embossed around the rim, and the logo on the ‘lil dial. Too cute π
Gorgeous. I’ve always loved the faces of LV watches but not the band….but now that I know they can switch to steel bands…..I want one.
I’m a big fan of the steel band because it’s shiny but also durable. but the leather ones come in so many colours, it’s so tempting!
*nod* definitely the steel band!! π
Yay!
well the more I look at it, the more I like the steel… so I’m glad I made that choice π

Re: Wonderful Watch!
Yay thank you!!
Re: Wonderful Watch!
Yay thank you!!
wow beverly, the watch is beautiful. Love it!
Yayyy I’m glad you do! I really love it, hopefully I won’t need another watch for the rest of my life π

Yayyy I’m glad you do! I really love it, hopefully I won’t need another watch for the rest of my life π
Your watch is gorgeous! Love it!
I have tiny wrists, too. It’s so hard to find things that fit them.
I have had a few watches, but never wear them… having something on my wrist drives me crazy and I always end up bashing it against things constantly. I wish I could wear them!
I agree! That’s why I’m so pleased with this one.. she kept adjusting and adjusting til it was perfect. TOok her almost half an hour but it was worth it, esp since they’ll resize again for free forever. Yay!
That watch is gorgeous, and it really does look better with the pink band.
Oh boo…. that’s sad π
I LOVE YOUR WATCH!!
and the steel band is so much nicer (& durable too!).
Yayyy glad you think so! I did want both though, hehe
Nice watch! It’s pretty awesome Bev. Christine
Yay thanks! But now I am poor and must wear this watch every day for the rest of my liffffffffe π

Gorgeous!! I like the pink band and the steel one equally, but the metal goes with more.
Agree, I really like the coloured bands.. I figure maybe I can get those for my birthdays or something, heh! They have a bright pink (framboise) one that I was lusting over, I so want that too!
I LOVE LV’s Tambour watch! Great choice!!! I prefer metal bands too; don’t have to worry about sweat or water stains!
Me too, all their watches are lovely. I like the one with the smaller face but it doesn’t come with a steel band (though they said they will in a year)
I LOVE YOUR WATCH!!
and the steel band is so much nicer (& durable too!).
Yayyy glad you think so! I did want both though, hehe
i love it!! still very feminine and girlish despite the fact that its an everyday watch!!
And hopefully it will match almost everything! yayyy I really like it π
I love it! Great call on getting the steel band π
It had better last a lifetime though! But I”m a one-watch kinda girl so fortunately I could justify it π
You have good taste, the steel band looks better.
I’m glad you think so! It also makes it look shinier, which is all good with me π
Nice watch! It’s pretty awesome Bev. Christine
Yay thanks! But now I am poor and must wear this watch every day for the rest of my liffffffffe π
Congrats on the investment piece! I totally agree that the cost per wear for a luxury watch is really worth it. The pink is so you.
Haha don’t tell me that! I do prefer the steel one though so it’s ok
LV, Alannah Hill, Burberry, Tiffany’s….
man…. can I have your job? Forget Donald Trump… I’ll just be Bev’s apprentice…. or perhaps sugar mama would suffice…
Burberry?!
Nah it’s not the job, trust me, they don’t pay me very much! I just buy and resell lots of eBay for a profit and also do a lot of clever financing π
well…..
Ok, so Burberry was one I put in… only coz I wanna Burnerry trench π I wanted a burberry scarf too but.. you can get stripey/checkery scarves anywhere….
Re: well…..
Oooo I hear ya, the Burberry trenches are just gorgeous! Maybe wait till they go on sale? π
gorgeous π
Thanks hon! Must wear it every single day to get full use outta it π
omg, it’s so cute! π I think the steel makes it a lot more watch-y, though the band is cute too!
Yeah the pink is so cute and so me, but it just won’t last π
i agree too – looks nicer with the steel band, good decision π
It had better last foreverrrrrr! haha
lovelyyy one!! π
Hehe thanks! I’m so fascinated with how it actually FITS me.. most watches don’t :X
youve got a small wrist thats why! π
I agree! It looks wayyy better with the steel band!
I would never keep the leather one clean since it’s so light… it’s soooo pretty too though!
That is gorgeous! I do prefer the steel band too.
Very pretty!
Me tooooo yay! It will last longer, hopefully

Wow that’s gorgeous! I generally hate watches, but this one is really nice. π
Really?! I HAVE to wear one or I feel naked, haha.
Your icon is so apt π
