The drum shaped Tambour case, which the watch takes its name from remains, but design-wise that's about it. Perhaps in an attempt to further advertise the watch's actual purpose above and beyond complimenting the wearer’s fashionable attire, Vuitton have thoughtfully added a divers' flag motif for the subdial, as if to say, this is a dive watch!

There will be four versions of the Tambour Diving II, two case sizes; gents 44mm and ladies 39.5mm. The 44mm watches will come in either stainless steel or 18Kt Rose Gold, with either blue or black sunburst dials. The Rose Gold variant will have the blue dial and red as opposed to black for its bezel insert.


The end portions of Diving II's semi-skeltonized hands as the markers are, have been applied with white SuperLumiNova. The Tambour Diving II will have a 300 meter water-resistance as its predecessor, ladies version however only 100m. Louis Vuitton offer a 5 year International warranty on their timepieces.


My apologies for the lack hi-res images at the moment, but this is the one and only image floating round the net . . . Below is the first Tambour Diver with internal bezel, which I have always had a bit of a soft spot for.
