Égérie Moon phase 8005F/000R-B958 37 mm Pink Gold
Moon phase 8005F/000R-B958
No less than 36 round-cut diamonds surround the moon and its starry sky, behind clouds of mother-of-pearl. The moon phase is perfectly combined with the dial: thanks to the tapestry technique, its motif recalls the delicate pleating of an Haute Couture fabric. This 18K 5N pink gold watch is set with 58 round-cut diamonds and a cabochon moonstone between 1 and 2 o’clock. An elegance matched by three interchangeable straps which for a variety of styles as desired.
A 100-piece limited series developed with designer Yiqing Yin
Undeniably dreamlike, the moon-phase indicator is adorned with lilac mother-of-pearl and festooned with diamonds. Elegance suffuses the entire timepiece, expressed in the contours of the 37 mm diamond-set pink gold case, in the slender hands reminiscent of dressmakers’ nimble fingers, and in the Égérie collection’s characteristic asymmetry: a crown at 2 o'clock aligned with the moon phase, with the Vacheron Constantin inscription at 8 o'clock.
Clearly visible through the transparent caseback, the Manufacture's Calibre 1088 L ensures accurate timekeeping as the he delicately openworked 22-carat gold oscillating weight inspired by the Maltese cross sweeps over the hand-turned Côtes de Genève motif.
These Haute Horlogerie signatures are echoed by that of Yiqing Yin, whose name is engraved in full on the caseback, alongside the unique number of the watch within this exclusive 100-piece limited edition.
The Égérie moon phase watch is highly versatile thanks to the collection’s ingenious system of interchangeable straps. The wearer can play on textures or create contrasts in the blink of an eye: lilac alligator leather for an elegant tone-on-tone effect, deep blue satiny calfskin or powder pink grained calfskin leather.
