To complete the picture the timepiece is presented on a black Alligator strap with 18 Karat pink gold double folding buckle. Louis Vuitton presents the Tambour Carpe Diem, a one-of-a-kind vanitas-inspired piece from the high watchmaking collection. The watch also has an impressive 100-hour power reserve and is waterproof to a depth of 30-metres. She has infused both the snake and the skull with such movement and levity that it’s impossible not to smile at the maxim to “seize the day”. Functionally the Tambour Carpe Diem features jumping hours retrograde minutes and a power reserve indication.

However, the watch is anything but macabre, thanks to 50 hours of meticulously executed enamelling by Swiss artist Anita Porchet. Unveiled during Watches & Wonders 2021, Louis Vuitton Tambour Carpe Diem Automaton Minute Repeatermade its debut alongside highly complicated watches from mainstream watchmakers but it holds its own in mechanical complexity and metiers d’artdecoration against the best of them. The overall aesthetic of the luxury watch is of a contemporary Vanitas, the symbolic motif representing the transience of life, with the skull reflecting the inevitability of death and the hourglass to denote the shortness of life. And with the Tambour Street Diver, Louis Vuitton continues its horological journey into the unexpected. Meanwhile, one of the skull’s eyes opens to reveal the brands signature Monogram flower, and its jaw, complete with one gold tooth, drops to expose the poet Horace’s famous phrase ‘Carpe Diem’ emerges- a reminder to make every day count. The Tambour Carpe Diem features bold high-watchmaking virtuosity, while the Tambour Curve GMT Tourbillon Volant, another high-watchmaking timepiece, is an invitation to new horizons. A touch of the snake push-piece triggers the 16-second animation that brings the snake on the dial to life, slithering aside to display the hour in the middle of the skull, while the end of the tail jealously guarding a brilliant-cut diamond, flicks towards the minutes.
