Under the loupe are those that defined Vacheron Constantin\u2019s impressive history, including the\u00a0Traditionnelle and Patrimony<\/strong>. The second one in the list above is previewed here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Scroll the collections, and you\u2019ll discover countless product\u00a0variants. However, while\u00a0a Traditionnelle comes in hand-wind or self-winding iterations, a Patrimony is exclusively available as a self-winding timepiece, either a three-hander or not, like the signature\u00a0Moon Phase with a Retrograde Date<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n Here is\u00a0a brand\u2019s favourite. Nevertheless, the Maison took the chance to revise the model further by applying the 270th-anniversary treatment inside and out while building on a proven layout whose gold case measures\u00a042.5 mm across and 9.7 mm in thickness<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The\u00a0\u201c270 years\u201d<\/em>\u00a0treatment expands Vacheron Constantin\u2019s brand identity and introduces some traits we hope could\u00a0become standard soon. They make this classic complicated gold watch with an ultra-flat shape look and feel much better.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Look at the dial. It has an unexpected pattern, representing the\u00a0\u201c270 years\u201d<\/em>\u00a0official logo<\/strong>, with the Maltese cross placed at 7:30. You can hardly notice it at first glance. Still, it adds character enough to make it contemporary yet understated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The next addition is rooted in the brand\u2019s history. Vacheron Constantin has revived the\u00a0\u201cc\u00f4tes unique\u201d<\/em>\u00a0decoration<\/strong>\u00a0from its archives. It all began in 2021 when it crafted the Historiques American 1921 watch. As the brand claims, more than five hundred hours of training were needed to bring\u00a0\u201cC\u00f4te unique\u201d<\/em>\u00a0to life again. The outcome is a dense array of ultra-thin lines that set the decoration into a class apart from the ubiquitous C\u00f4tes de Gen\u00e8ve you\u2019ll see in an ordinary movement.<\/p>\n\n\nThe Patrimony Moon Phase and Retrograde Date<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
