Art and Culture

Since 1755, the Maison has taken inspiration from cultural and artistic universes in Europe, the United States, the Far East and the Middle East, as well as paying tribute to its Greco-Roman roots. This has resulted in timepieces with highly sophisticated creative ornamentation, with remarkable watchmaking expertise with the decorative expertise of artistic crafts. It is within this context that Vacheron Constantin has entered into partnerships with various cultural institutions and artists.

Artistic collaborations

A shared commitment to excellence

Collaboration, with royalty, business titans and artists, has been one of the ways Vacheron Constantin perpetually expands the frontiers of Haute Horlogerie. Today, by working closely with select artists who embody the Maison’s Quest, we keep ancestral savoir-faire alive with new ideas, even as these brilliant minds draw inspiration from the Manufacture’s heritage.
