Part of the Collection Excellence Platine and issued in a limited edition of 100 individually numbered pieces, the new Vacheron Constantin Traditionnelle Complete Calendar features a 950 platinum case with a sand-blasted dial bearing an almost invisible “Pt950” inscription between 4 and 5 o’clock.
Even the topstitching on the dark blue alligator leather strap and the folding clasp are made of platinum.
Magnified by the precious metal, the elegant 41 mm case of the Traditionelle houses the 308 components of Calibre 2460 QCL, a mechanical self-winding movement entirely developed and manufactured by Vacheron Constantin. Equipped with a 22 carats gold oscillating weight, it beats at the frequency of 4 Hz and ensures a 40-hour power reserve while driving the central hours, minutes and seconds, complete calendar (day, date and month), precision moon phase and age of the moon.
The accurate moon-phase indication requires just one adjustment every 122 years (compared with three years for a simple moon phase).
In line with the typical aesthetic codes of the Traditionnelle collection, the dial is characterized by a railway-type minute track, Dauphine-type hours and minutes hands, as well as “bâtons de Genève” hour-markers.
Blue Arabic numerals grace the date - indicated by a slender blue central hand - and other calendar indications, while the platinum moon disc gives the final touch to this exclusive model.
Water-resistant to 30 metres and vearing the Hallmark of Geneva, the Vacheron Constantin Traditionnelle Complete Calendar (ref. 4010T/000P-B345) has a retail price of Euro 69,000 / US$ 68,500. vacheron-constantin.com

If I understand well this is less than an annual calendar so I need to adjust it seVeral times during the year. At this price I would expect a perpetual or at least an annual calendar!
ReplyDeleteAgree. The complication of an annual calendar (at least) would add preciousness.
