Timing is a precision affair, but it isn’t always about how accurate your watch might be. In fact, it frequently isn’t about something prosaic like accuracy. We use the word ‘affair’ deliberately here, because there are some timepieces that you absolutely have to love. Anything less than the strongest emotional bond and the watch will spend more time in a box than on your wrist. This is especially true if the watch in question is something exquisite, like the Vacheron Constantin Égérie Self-Winding, which relies on your movements to power its own mechanical heart. The Égérie collection debuted earlier this year, even before the digital Watches & Wonders show, so we have all had some time to come to grips with the series. It was Vacheron Constantin’s first ladies collection in more than 10 years, and the second coming of a collection that first appeared in 2003.
