[Press Release] The Patrimony Contemporaine small model is an elegant and classically designed timepiece available in 18-carat pink or white gold.
Its hand-wound manufacture movement is entirely crafted by Vacheron Constantin and bears the Hallmark of Geneva.
The 18-carat gold case is 36 mm in diameter and frames an opaline, silver-toned dial.
Long applied hour-markers punctuate a beaded minute circle in 18-carat gold.
The slender 6.7 mm watch profile is accentuated by a rim of brilliant-cut diamonds.
The Manufacture Vacheron Constantin Calibre 1400 is revealed through the transparent caseback. Its technical sophistication is matched by hand-finishing performed to traditional standards and meeting the most demanding criteria.
The flat surfaces are adorned with Côtes de Genève and the sharp edges are chamfered and hand-polished, as are the flat-headed screws.
