Swiss luxury watch brand Vacheron Constantin is expanding its Traditionnelle collection with two manual-winding pink gold models (33mm and 38mm) featuring a majestic green sunburst dial.
Presented at Watches and Wonders Shanghai, these two watches, reserved exclusively for China for a full month, are fitted with a tone-on-tone alligator leather strap and driven by in-house manual-winding movements.
Vacheron Constantin Traditionnelle Manual-winding 33mm
The Traditionnelle manual-winding watch comes in an elegant 33 mm diameter pink gold case.
This beautifully balanced model features a slim stepped profile, railway-type minutes track and Dauphine-type hands.
The radiance of the 54 round-cut diamonds delicately set on the bezel is matched by that of the majestic green sunburst dial. A truly luminous sight enhanced by a tone-on-tone alligator strap.
Beating behind the scenes is in-house manual-winding Calibre 1440 with its 42-hour power reserve and Côtes de Genève decorative pattern.
Vacheron Constantin Traditionnelle Manual-winding 38mm
The Traditionnelle manual-winding watch is adorned with a pleasing pink gold and green colour combo, framed by a 38 mm diameter case.
This new Traditionnelle watch features all collection’s characteristic design codes. Its classic look is immediately recognisable by the slender, stepped case middle and the railway-type minutes track punctuating the dial, swept over by Dauphine-style hands. The new green dial with a sunburst finish plays with light effects at every subtle flick of the wrist.
Vacheron Constantin has opted for manual-winding in-house Calibre 4400 AS endowed with a generous 65-hour power reserve to drive the hours, minutes and small seconds indications.
It can be admired through the sapphire caseback and features the refined Côtes de Genève pattern representing the unmistakable signature of a High Watchmaking timepiece.
