adorning multiple louis vuitton logos and motifs, the circular ‘tambour horizon’ features a 42mm case that is 12.6mm thick. the display itself is a 1.2-inch AMOLED with a resounding resolution of 390×390. on the side, the design is finished with a polished steel crown that helps users navigate the smartwatch functions.
