完整圖錄內容
The minute repeating mechanism within the watch is perhaps the most striking feature of all. The minute repeater features an original centripetal flying strike governor that regulates the speed of the striking hammers, at the same time eliminating the background noise of typical lever-based mechanisms. The governer is proudly displayed through the sapphire crystal case back, which can be marveled in action.
The watch furthermore features the prestigious Poinçon de Genève (Hallmark of Geneva), attesting to the quality and craftsmanship of the present watch.
Vacheron Constantin
Swiss | 1755The world's oldest watch brand in continuous operation since its founding in 1755, Vacheron Constantin was the first watch company to manufacture movements with interchangeable parts beginning in 1839. Vacheron's watches are admired for their Latin-influenced case designs, well-balanced proportions and exquisitely finished movements of the highest quality. The Geneva-based manufacturer is known for their highly complicated masterpieces, including the King Farouk Grand Complication made in 1935, the Tour de l'Ile that was the most complicated serially produced wristwatch when introduced in 2005 and the 57260 — the world’s most complicated watch — made in 2015.
Key vintage models include minute repeating wristwatches such as the references 4261, chronographs such as the references 4178 and 6087 and the oversized Cioccolotone models such as ref. 4737. Collectors also appreciate Vacheron's Chronometer Royal pocket and wristwatches, as well as the '222,' the brand's first luxury sports watch produced from 1977 through 1984.
