Drawing its inspiration from the Art-Deco period, the Malte collection emphasis on the appearance of the beauty of curves, holding itself distinctive among Vacheron Constantin's collection for its tonneau shape. The Malte Tourbillon, an enhanced variation of the collection was launched in the year 2000 in celebration of the millennium and stepping forward of the brand. Offered in various case material and creative configurations, the present example has a very rare setting fully skeletonised with enhanced baguette-cut sapphires on the bezel and pavé-set diamonds exhibited on the case band. Upon close inspection, one would notice the symbol of Vacheron Constantin's Malte cross would be ingeniously incorporated on the tourbillon carriage, rotating gloriously in one minute intervals. The present example has a unique configuration and possibly sold to his Royal highness - Prince Jefri of Brunei.
