The Vacheron Constantin Traditionnelle Complete Calendar Openface is not shy to flaunt its incredible movement and finishing. With the prestige approval of the Poinçon de Genève gracing this timepiece, all its glory can be admire from the front to the back. Cased in a 41mm diameter pink gold case, a glimpse of the guilloche dial and gear can be appreciated under the sapphire crystal. As the white gold Dauphine hands glide across midnight, the wearer is able to see a world of wheels and levers as well as the jump of the sapphire day wheel in action. The date is indicated on the periphery of the dial by a crescent tipped hand that brackets the date with clear legibility. Tastefully depicted is also a photoreleastic moon phases at 6 o’clock cleverly designed with a semi-frosted shape that is modern and elegant.

Turning the watch to its caseback reveals the self-winding calibre 2460 QCL/2 is a pleasure for the wearer. Powered by a 22K gold rotor with the iconic Vacheron Constantin Maltese Cross, the timepiece that bears the hallmark of Geneva beats at 4 hz has a power reserved of 40 hours thanks to the 308 parts of this workhorse.
