Louis Vuitton watches

[M1K3]

I happened to be in LV and was presented these for feedback.

In my view LV are heading in the right direction (this doesn't mean I like the pieces), but there is still a long long way to go.

The Bad:
No QR straps
Price
Finishing at this price point just isn't good enough, I would take a AP(retail), JLC or Breguet any day.
Value proposition sucks, imagine trying to liquidate a €40K platinum with meteorite dial and not be completely and utterly shafted!
LOUIS VUITTON on the dial, I hate this almost as much as I hate to see the word AUTOMATIC on a dial. They need to take a leaf out of the Christopher Ward book.
Soft edges everywhere, hands/indices just look at them! Don't look precise at all.
No screw down crown

The Good
In house movement, albeit with st finishing for such an expensive watch.

To me, they look like they should cost about £200-300 max and be something some chav will be wearing just to say "its LV mate"

I'll stick to decent Swiss brands for half the price thanks.

I concur.

The numbers being charged are very much on the crazy side. Remember though, not everyone knows much about watches and will take the Swiss made LV offerings as high end.
