THE PINNACLE OF TRADITION
The Geneva-based manufacturer unveils three new expressions of time, three mechanical diaries that allow you to navigate through the hours, days, months, and leap years at a glance.
The age-old beauty of watchmaking is expressed through its name: the Traditionnelle collection by Vacheron Constantin, representing a love of tradition that stems from respect for ancient craftsmanship and timeless aesthetics, yet presented in a modern light with mechanics that are as innovative as they are impeccable. Legibility, functionality, and beauty are the main features defining the three new creations from the Geneva-based manufacture, certified by the Hallmark of Geneva, three references of the Traditionnelle Perpetual Calendar Ultra-Thin, which are equally suited to both men and women.
The proportions of the case (36.5 mm in diameter and 8.43 mm thick), with its slim fluted crown and slightly rounded lugs resembling two arms ready to embrace, ensure ideal ergonomics on the wrist. As for the metal used to craft the case, Vacheron Constantin offers three versions of this model: rose gold, white gold, and white gold set with diamonds to highlight the classic spirit of the silver opaline dial.
Comfort is also a feature of the Traditionnelle Perpetual Calendar Ultra-Thin, as all the information can be read at a glance. In the center, the dauphine-shaped hands indicate the hours and minutes, pointing to a series of baton hour markers and a railway track around the edge of the dial. The mechanical calendar is laid out in a harmonious and clear manner, with the days at 9 o’clock opposite the date at 3 o’clock, the moon phase and age at 6 o’clock, and the months and leap years culminating at 12 o’clock. Useful for navigating through time on a daily basis, these displays are powered by the 1120 QP caliber, an automatic manufacture movement that beats at a gentle frequency of 2.75 Hz and delivers a power reserve of approximately 40 hours when fully wound.
