Vacheron Constantin regularly calls upon its finest watchmakers and craftsmen to create exceptional pieces in the purest watchmaking tradition and also with all the innovations of our time. The cabinotiers perpetuate this tradition of Haute Horlogerie at the manufacture, and this name refers to the skilled watchmakers located in little workshop on the top floors of Geneva buildings to benefit from natural light during the 18th century.
This timepiece is extremely refined and is the simple result of more than 200 years of the manufacture's history and know-how.
It is truly the movement of this piece that stands out: a single button split seconds chronograph, equipped with a hand-engraved peripheral oscillating weight that fully reveals the calibre's finishes. Also with a comfortable power reserve of 51 hours, it is a watch and a calibre to have in your collection if you like the exceptional.
The silvered opaline dial also displays a pulsation scale and a power reserve indicator.
All housed in a platinum case, this is a unique piece.
