Inspired by 1956
The aesthetic of this watch is a tribute to the original model designed in 1956, reference 6073. The Maltese cross, a Vacheron Constantin icon, is subtly reflected in the design of the horns. The crown is cleverly integrated into the case to preserve its clean look, while the curved sapphire crystal accentuates its retro style.
Calendar information is one of the most useful functions a watch can offer in daily life. This combination of astronomical complications brings all the features of a calendar to the wrist, day of the week, date, month, and moon phase. The color enhances the information display, making it easier to read.
PERSONALISE YOUR WATCH WITH A STRAP
Whether it’s the color of the leather, the color of the stitching or the color of the side edges, the possibilities are almost endless to make your watch strap entirely unique. You can also add a design or text to the lining of your watch to make it even more special. The strap bar: a tailored appointment for you to discover in the Vacheron Constantin Boutiques.
INTERPRETING MODERN ELEGANCE
A name and a date evoking an iconic model by Vacheron Constantin dating from 1956. This modern, elegant and relaxed collection with its resolutely cosmopolitan style expresses its personality through the contrast between the classic dial and the daring case. The latter is notably inspired by the Maltese cross-shaped emblem of the Maison that is also picked up on the openworked pink gold oscillating weight.
