Vacheron Constantin introduces the Traditionnelle Tourbillon High Jewellery, a blend of high watchmaking and gem-setting artistry. This watch is part of the Traditionnelle collection, which exemplifies the brand’s commitment to both technical sophistication and decorative mastery. Although the Vacheron Constantin Les Cabinotiers collection has kind of the same message. Or was it the Vacheron Constantin Métier d’Art collection?
Anyway, blending precision engineering with ornate design leads to this High Jewellery model, showcasing nearly 350 baguette-cut diamonds through an invisible setting technique. The result is an ultra-shiny timepiece probably worn by ultra-shiny people.
Diamonds are everywhere
This timepiece measures 41 millimeters in diameter and 12.46 millimeters in thickness. Crafted in 18k white gold, the case is fully adorned with diamonds, extending to the bezel, lugs, crown, and even the clasp.
The dial features 158 baguette-cut diamonds, arranged in a radiating pattern that highlights the central tourbillon. The white gold hands do not disturb the pattern but are a little harder to read. In total, the watch has 334 diamonds, with a total weight of approx. 27.11 carats (guaranteed minimum carats).
The power reserve of the Vacheron Constantin Traditionnelle Tourbillon High Jewellery is 80 hours
At the heart of the watch is the Vacheron Constantin caliber 2160, an ultra-thin self-winding movement. Apparently, it has shrunk a bit as in the recently launched Vacheron Constantin Les Cabinotiers Le Temps Divin Ode to the four Guardians it has a diameter of 31 millimeters. In this Traditionnelle tourbillon High Jewellery it is 30.4.
Never mind, this movement provides an impressive 80-hour power reserve. The tourbillon carriage, shaped like the Maltese cross, adds a signature touch and serves as the small seconds indicator. Furtermore, it has meticulous finishing with bridges adorned with Côtes de Genève, while the main plate features circular graining. The peripheral rotor, crafted in 18k gold, displays a Clous de Paris hobnail guilloché pattern.
Strap and pricing of the sparkling VC Traditionnelle Tourbillon
The watch features a dark grey alligator leather strap with a matching alligator inner shell, with saddle finish and large square scales. The 18k white gold folding clasp, set with 16 baguette-cut diamonds, secures the strap and adds to the watch’s opulent aesthetic.
The Vacheron Constantin Traditionnelle Tourbillon High Jewellery is available exclusively in Vacheron Constantin boutiques. The price is on request and there is also an earlier released 39-millimeter model available.
