ADVANCING LEGACY
WOW Singapore
|Issue 73
With Vacheron Constantin's 270th anniversary arriving next year, let's take a moment to appreciate what truly makes the maison great through three of its quietest novelties

With so many stars-in-the-making at Watches and Wonders Geneva, it would take something quite spectacular to linger in memory. Vacheron Constantin had more than a few of those somethings. The Egerie - Pleats of Time was a three-way collaboration with couturier Yiqing Yin and perfumer Dominique Ropion, creating the world's first perfume concept watch. The Grand Lady Kalla returns in a transformable guise, with the high jewellery secret watch accompanied by a gem-set bracelet and sautoir necklace. There was a small army of Overseas models, four with olive green dials and one in full titanium, revealing the brand's keen sense of prevailing trends. And of course there was the Berkley Grand Complication pocket watch, now the most complicated timepiece in the world.
But Vacheron Constantin was not founded on trends and spectacle (however adept the brand may be at both). It has remained one of the most respected watchmaking brands today because it spent the last 269 years perfecting the art of classic elegance, backed up by a rigorous approach to mechanical innovation. And it is in the Patrimony and Traditionelle collections that one can best connect with this heritage.
