While Tag Heuer and Zenith rolled out new watches during LVMH Watch Week, Louis Vuitton also unveiled a beautiful collection of watches featuring a new design—something that’s outside the conventional design box: the Louis Vuitton Tambour Taiko Spin Time collection.

This line of watches goes way back to 2009 but has been reimagined in the past few years to keep up with the changing times. Unlike watches that come with hour markers, this collection has small blocks that can turn to indicate the current time.

The Louis Vuitton Tambour Taiko Spin Time was rolled out in two different versions, with an open-air design and a normal dial; there are six variants in total. The version with an open-air design is popularly known as the Air version.

Thanks to the open-air design, the hour blocks are in plain sight, making it easier to understand how the mechanism works. During the 2025 LVMH Watch Week, four new watches were launched with an open-air design. Each variant has unique details.

The second variant, on the other hand, went all out with gemstones. It comes with more than 1,000 diamonds that highlight every single element on the watch.

Designed to display time in different time zones, the third variant has unique markers for tracking time in multiple cities. Apart from that, the front face has an interesting aesthetic, thanks to the world-map art.

While the open-air design is quite fascinating, the reimagined version of the Taiko Spin Time stands out due to the closed dial. The first variant comes with gold hour markers, and the second variant is equipped with diamond stones.

All six watches are limited edition timepieces, ranging in price from $72,500 to $172,000.
