Replica Vacheron Constantin Patrimony, Three New 42mm Models In Platinum, White Gold and Pink Gold

While the formal purity of the Vacheron Constantin Patrimony collection is highlighted by the refinement of the noble materials from which the replica watches are crafted, it is given a distinctly contemporary expression in an even more generous diameter. The three models interpreted in 42 mm case elegantly assert the pure, restrained lines of the iconic Vacheron Constantin collection. Reflecting a minimalist design that combines taut lines with rounded curves in a pleasing aesthetic balance, the new models presented at the SIHH 2016 come in 950 platinum, 18K white gold or 18K 5N pink gold.


In keeping with the Patrimony design codes; these timepieces feature a broad opening framing understated dials that are slate-colored for the platinum version and silver opaline for the white gold and pink gold models.


Slightly convex on the external zone and adorned with a circular “pearl” minute-track, the restrained dial is enlivened by a small seconds subdial at 6 o’clock.


The functions are driven by Caliber 4400 AS, a mechanical manual-winding movement developed and manufactured by Vacheron Constantin.


Visible through the sapphire crystal caseback, it features all the hand finishes characteristic of Haute Horlogerie. All models bear the Hallmark of Geneva.

Vacheron Constantin Patrimony, 40mm with Gold Bracelet (Reference: 81180/CB1R-9159)

Swiss luxury replica watch maker Vacheron Constantin introduces a new version of its iconic Patrimony 40 mm model by adorning it with an 18K 5N gold bracelet. The latter, a true Fine Replica Watchmaking classic, endows the replica watch with a particularly precious character and makes a seamless fit with the case.


With the superbly slender silhouette of its 6.8 mm case and a heart beating to the rhythm of a mechanical manual-winding in-house movement, the Patrimony model reflects horological tradition and appears in an even more refined guise in this new version with gold bracelet.


Endowed with a frequency of 4 Hz (28,800 vibrations per hour) and an approximately 40-hour power reserve, Caliber 1400 housed by the Patrimony timepiece is distinguished by meticulously chamfered bridges adorned with Côtes de Genève, as well as a circular-grained base-plate. This exceptional caliber is housed in an 18K 5N pink gold case measuring 40 mm in diameter.


Accentuating the slim lines of the collection, the silvered opaline dial is distinguished by a slightly convex external area. Enjoying excellent legibility thank to a broad opening, the dial is enhanced by discreet hour-markers and a pearl minute-track. The baton-type hands, also in 18K 5N pink gold, further highlights the refinement to this timepiece, accentuated by the emblematic Maltese cross.

The elegantly streamlined replica watch profile highlights an appealing 8.1 mm thick silhouette.

Replica Vacheron Constantin Métiers d’Art Fabuleux Ornements (PRE-SIHH 2016)

Prestigious Swiss replica watch manufacture Vacheron Constantin offers an exclusive preview of one of the masterpiece horology creations to be unveiled at SIHH 2016 haute horlogerie exhibition.

To be unveiled at the upcoming luxury replica watch exhibition, newest editions of the Vacheron Constantin Métiers d’Art Fabuleux Ornements collection, like its predecessors, celebrate the ornamental beauties of the world drawn from the decorative arts of several cultures. Two year after its first launch, the collection unveils four new models born of the art of open-working and a combination of artistic crafts bearing the Hallmark of Geneva.


Ten different master artisans have provided reinterpretations of Ottoman architecture, Chinese embroidery, Indian manuscripts and French lacework. These creations are equipped with an ethereal hand-engraved movement: calibre ultra-thin 1003 in 18K gold. The finesse of the front-facing décor is precise to the nearest tenth of a millimetre, while on the back Vacheron Constantin has opted for an exclusively chamfered and hand-drawn finish that preserves a restrained appearance.


Métiers d’Art Fabuleux Ornements “Indian manuscript”

Traditional arts meet at the crossroads of different cultures. To highlight this exceptional know-how, the model “Indian manuscript” is created from the alliance of Grand Feu champlevé enameling and hand engraving.


Métiers d’Art Fabuleux Ornements “Ottoman architecture”

The “Ottoman architecture” timepiece is defined by hand chamfering,
natural white mother-of-pearl base and a gold grid work studded with
half-pearl beads.


Métiers d’Art Fabuleux Ornements “French lacework”

The “French lacework” model is adorned with a translucent hand-guilloché Grand Feu enamelled dial. The base of the gold dial is clad in a guilloche motif lending subtle depth to the transparent enamel and set with garnet-colored sapphires and diamonds.


Métiers d’Art Fabuleux Ornements “Chinese embroidery”

The fourth timepiece “Chinese embroidery” is crafted in pink gold according to the stone- cloisonné technique with jade. The dial is sculpted from mother-of-pearl and features a pink opal shaped according to the glyptic art and complimented by finely hand engraved gold leaves and pistils.

For 260 years, the Manufacture has consistently enhanced the beauty of its creations through artistic crafts. Hand engraving is one such technique. A demanding art calling for exceptional patience and dexterity, it was used right from the start as a means of achieving ethereal lightness. The first replica watch created by Jean-Marc Vacheron in 1755 already featured an open-worked and engraved balance-cock. A master in the practice of this extremely intricate discipline, Vacheron Constantin has given free rein to its creativity, progressively open-working both simple and complicated calibres, associating them according to its inspiration with other artistic crafts.

Replica Vacheron Constantin Métiers d’Art La Légende du Zodiaque Chinois – Year of the Monkey

To celebrate the Chinese year of Monkey, Swiss luxury replica watch maker Vacheron Constantin presents a special edition timepiece from its Métiers d’Art La légende du zodiaque chinois series with the sign of the monkey. The latter will take over from that of the goat at the Chinese New Year on February 8th 2016. Bearing the Hallmark of Geneva, these two new creations, realised in twelve models each, combine the technical excellence of Caliber 2460 G4 with the beauty of artistic crafts.


China, a nation with which Vacheron Constantin has been cultivating special relation since 1845, first introduce the paper-cutting technique known as Jianzhi, a popular art echoed in Swiss culture through its famous Scherenschnitt paper-cutting. This artistic approach, highlighted in the Métiers d’Art La légende du zodiaque chinois, has been given a fresh interpretation thanks to the expertise of the master engravers and enamellers.


The foliage motif appearing on the dial and based on classic Chinese iconography is etched directly in the metal. The pattern remains semi-embedded and stands out from its gold base by a subtle stage-setting of variously accentuating reliefs creating a depth effect. This makes the vegetation appear to be floating over the dial.


Then comes the stage of Grand Feu enamelling, a technique invented in Geneva and that remains the preserve of a very few particularly skilled artisans. By applying the enamel in successive layers, the enamel specialist enhances the intensity of the blue or bronze-toned dial. The monkey, made of platinum or gold, is hand engraved and delicately applied to the dial centre.


Caliber 2460 G4 makes it possible to create a distinctive and ideal stage-setting for the decorative arts, by giving the central dial motif a starring role. The hands-free time display is achieved through four apertures showing the hours, minutes, days and dates. These indications – the first two of the dragging variety and the last two of the jumping type – proudly embody the longstanding savoir-faire of the Maison in designing and developing original displays.


Clearly visible through the sapphire crystal back of the platinum or pink gold case, the 22-carat oscillating weight is adorned with a recurrent Maltese Cross pattern testifying to finishes performed in keeping with the finest replica watchmaking traditions. All movement components are indeed finely finished in accordance with the criteria of the Hallmark of Geneva, a quality label of which Vacheron Constantin is the most faithful representative.
