April 11, 2016: Fine watchmaker, Vacheron Constantin celebrates masculine sartorialism with the novel Metiers d’Art Elegance Sartoriale line.
Taking its own spin on men’s classical attires, Vacheron Constantin creates five new timepieces that bear the coveted Hallmark of Geneva.
Flaunting the Maison’s masterful decorative techniques, the crescent-shaped dials, coated with translucent Grand Feu enamel, reproduces authentic color charts of the masculine wardrobe.
They come in five distinct patterns – raspberry red Prince of Wales, lavender Harringbone, warm grey Windowpane, linen-colored Pin Stripes and a royal blue Tartan.
All of them feature a gold subdial at 3 o’clock and an hour circle, which is set in mother-of-pearl, a nod to shirt buttons.
An original mechanical manual-winding movement, Caliber 1400, powers the five models, which come with exquisite alligator leather straps in colors that match the shades of the dials.
The timepieces also blast a polished case that leaves room for a personalized engraving at the back.
