Why ask? AE is P. E. R. F. E. C. T. I. O. N.

I fell in love with the AE at first sight, when I saw a pic from W&W 2023. I immediately contacted my dealer who was at W&W. I waited 8 months for this one. Definitely worth the wait.

I mean...

... I know LV has been improving its watch maker footprint. But to compare it to the chopard with LUC movement.🧐 XPS for me

Chopard all day

The XPS of course! No offence to the LV, but not even a fair fight IMHO…then again I must be biased!

If you need to ask……maybe I am just a snob 😂😂😂

Or maybe yhey need LV advertising 🤣🤣🤣🤣

This is a very nice piece from LV, but I don’t get the matchup against LUC.🤔

Alpine Eagle for me, without a second of hesitation.

First change the name “Tambour” to something fancier then I’ll consider the competition 😬

I voted with my wallet . . .

Merci, mon ami!🥂

Next to each other, it's not even close.

 
 By: India Whiskey Charlie : January 15th, 2024-22:34

So true, my friend! But I’m intrigued to see what the future hold for LV!🥂

 
 By: Mach : January 16th, 2024-01:46

I forgot you had seen both! Excellent choice! But you already knew that!

 
 By: Chronometer (aka yacomino) : January 15th, 2024-23:32

‘We’ already knew that!😉

 
 By: Mach : January 16th, 2024-01:47

Indeed we do :-)))

 
 By: Chronometer (aka yacomino) : January 16th, 2024-13:05

XPS and not even close for me :)

 
 By: m2 : January 15th, 2024-23:06

How is this even a choice? The LV of course! Just kidding..

 
 By: Echi : January 16th, 2024-01:58
Chopard all the way! 😁😁😁

What say me?

 
 By: MilDiver : January 16th, 2024-06:18
That Flaflello, like most of the "watch info" sites, is long gone from being an info site and transformed into an ad agency. And they will do anything to manipulate our brain... But we stay strong, No context, AE XPS in a heartbeat.

I am surprised that they did not through also a speedmaster into the round? :)

 
 By: @lberti : January 16th, 2024-09:35

Chopard for me

 
 By: Watchonthewrists : January 16th, 2024-08:28

The AE takes it, definitely.The dial of the LV is overdone in my opinion.

 
 By: lm6 : January 16th, 2024-09:30

LV for me. The symmetry is good. What needs to be round is round. IMO.

 
 By: iceheller 1945 ✌️ : January 16th, 2024-12:45
Eagle symmetry looks weird to me, couple with the bezel screws and strangle design bracket just not my cup of tea. The sun burst dial is however nice.

AE

The LV is nice but so predictable nothing special

 
 By: Gelato Monster : January 16th, 2024-15:25
The XPS every part is special.

Why ask? AE is P. E. R. F. E. C. T. I. O. N.
