The recipe for the new Louis Vuitton tourbillon watch is so simple\u2026 yet so complex. Louis Vuitton loves to fit its exclusive tourbillons into platinum cases. That of the Tambour Moon, which is recognizable by its concave caseband and the almost complete absence of a bezel, mainly houses\u2026 emptiness. The Tambour Moon Myst\u00e9rieuse Flying Tourbillon is composed of a metal ring and a floating movement to which it owes the \u201cmystery\u201d moniker. In practice, it is mounted on a series of transparent sapphire disks serving as a mainplate, bridges and transmission for winding. The sapphire-mounted movement has been part of the Vuitton collection since 2012, with the introduction of the Tambour Myst\u00e9rieuse. The latter was not a tourbillon, but instead an eight-day movement shaped like a small black medallion, right in the middle of a wide empty space, featuring a diamond and ruby power-reserve indicator. While the Tambour Moon Myst\u00e9rieuse Flying Tourbillon does not have that precious touch, its movement appears to be just as independent of the case and crown, ensconced on its tiny transparent cloud. The only visible elements are the vertically aligned barrel, gear train and tourbillon. This symmetry accentuates the strange and fascinating impression created by this watch.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Between two layers of thin air Louis Vuitton Tambour Moon Myst\u00e9rieuse Flying Tourbillon CASE : [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":11,"featured_media":30419,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[80],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.gmtmag.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/30422"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.gmtmag.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.gmtmag.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.gmtmag.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/11"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.gmtmag.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=30422"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.gmtmag.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/30422\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":30426,"href":"https:\/\/www.gmtmag.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/30422\/revisions\/30426"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.gmtmag.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/30419"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.gmtmag.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=30422"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.gmtmag.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=30422"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.gmtmag.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=30422"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
