Vacheron Constantin launches timepiece to honour Chinese new year

Vacheron Constantin launches a timepiece in honour of Chinese new year

Vacheron Constantin Year of Monkey watch 2016

January 12, 2016: Watchmaker and master enamelling brand, Vacheron Constantin, continues its Métiers d’Art La Légende du Zodiaque Chinois series with a magnificent year of the monkey inspired timepiece. 

Handcrafted using Grand Feu enameling original to Geneva, this collection showcases an expertise only a handful of particularly skilled artisans own. This method lays the enamel in successive layers, enhancing the blue or bronze-toned dial in a way that can only be taught through years of experience. Vacheron Constantin pays tribute to the Chinese New Year with a hand engraved platinum or gold monkey delicately placed in the center of the dial. 

Vacheron Constantin watch enameling technique

The collection flawlessly combines artistic craftsmanship with the technical excellence of Caliber 2460 G4. Limited to a mere twelve models each, these two new additions to the Métiers d’Art La Légende du Zodiaque Chinois series are only available through Vacheron Constantin boutiques.
