Tribute to Explorer Naturalists - Terre de feu 7500U/000G-B993
Introduced by the Republic and Canton of Geneva in 1886 as the ultimate standard in excellence and an emblem of Geneva’s fine watchmaking expertise, the Poinçon de Genève or Hallmark of Geneva, is synonymous with provenance, quality craftsmanship and reliability.
Vacheron Constantin pays tribute to the Explorer Naturalists in a series of 4 limited editions of 10 pieces each. Inspired by art, history and culture, the collection set sail for the scientific discoveries of naturalists who travelled the world’s oceans aboard the english ship Beagle in the early 1830s. The remarkable mix of hand-engraving and enameling reveals the double aesthetic of the story. By virtue of its construction, the self-winding 1120AT/1 caliber, displays satellites hours on the bottom dial. Its movement is stamped with the Hallmark of Geneva, a guarantee of excellence and reliability.
