A FIRST: SUNBURST GREEN DIALS ENTER THE OVERSEAS COLLECTION

A first in the Overseas collection, the iconic watchmaker Vacheron Constantin announce the introduction of intense green dials featuring a sunburst satin-finished centre and velvet-finished flange.

Meet diversity with a new colour for four pink gold models: chronograph, dual time, date in 41 mm and 35 mm.

Versatile watches delivered with three interchangeable bracelet/straps: a pink gold bracelet with quick-release folding clasp; along with green calfskin and green rubber straps secured by a likewise interchangeable pin buckle.

Intense green has been added to the dials and interchangeable straps of four new Overseas models in pink gold, a first for this collection. In perfect harmony with the spirit of travel, this new hue can now be found on the dials of the 35 mm gemset, 41 mm date, 42.5 mm chronograph and 41mm dual time models. Water-resistant to 150 metres, each of these new timepieces is equipped with a top-quality self-winding calibre featuring meticulous finishing. The movements feature an oscillating weight engraved with the collection’s emblematic compass rose. On these four models, just as on all Overseas watches, the pink gold bracelet with folding clasp is easily adjustable. It can be replaced by a calfskin leather strap or a green rubber strap, each with an interchangeable pin buckle.

NEW DIAL COLOR

By endowing the dials of four pink gold models with an intense green colour, the Maison has enhanced the adventurous vocation of the Overseas collection. This new hue breaks with the classic colour codes of Overseas watches: black, silver, pinkish beige and the emblematic blue. Combining the deep brilliance of pink gold with the intensity of green, these new timepieces bring a fresh aesthetic to Vacheron Constantin’s sporty-chic watches. To accentuate the intensity of this new colour, meticulous care has been lavished on the finishing touches. Against a translucent lacquered backdrop playing on depth effects, the centre is graced with sunburst satin-brushing, while the flange is delicately velvet-finished. The legibility of the models is ensured by the contrast between the gold hour-markers and hands highlighted with Super-LumiNova® and the dark dial colour. Featuring a lighter shaded double minutes track – or a single one on the gemset model – they enable accurate readings of the minutes and seconds. The finishes of the integrated rose gold bracelets with polished and vertical satin-brushed links evoking the shape of a Maltese cross, harmoniously match those of the dials, topped by a circular satin-finished bezel.

CHIC YET SPORT

This new introduction of intense green dials covers different models in the Overseas collection. It includes four references: the 35 mm gemset, the 41 mm self-winding model with date display, the 42.5 mm chronograph and the 41 mm dual time iteration. In keeping with the collection’s sporting vocation, these new models with their open sapphire crystal case backs are water-resistant to 150 metres thanks to a screw-down crown. A soft-iron casing ring provides anti-magnetic protection for the movements. These timepieces feature various calibres with High Watchmaking finishes, all self-winding with an 18K pink gold oscillating weight featuring the collection’s emblematic compass rose. Robust, sturdy and beating at a frequency of 4 Hz (28,800 vibrations per hour), they have a comfortable power reserve.

 

ONE WATCH, THREE FACES

Overseas watches have made versatility one of their most practical and attractive features. Thanks to the interchangeability of its bracelet/straps, each model adopts a different style. The four new models come with an integrated pink gold bracelet featuring a triple-blade quick-release folding clasp. This system makes it possible to achieve an up to 4 mm larger wrist circumference by stretching the last one or even two links connected to the clasp of the rose gold bracelet. The bracelet can be swapped out tool-free for a calfskin or rubber strap. Featuring the same green colour as the dial, these two wristbands feature a pin buckle that is also interchangeable without tools.

FROM GEOMETRY TO ARTISTRY

A Vacheron Constantin watch is far more than merely the sum of its parts. Starting from a sketch, a geometrical drawing and its technical extensions, a whole world of shapes, colours and textures is born. The complex structures of mechanical engineering combine with design; meticulous detail gives life to grace; artisanal intelligence sparks emotions. Based on formal, mathematical study, Vacheron Constantin timepieces are thus endowed with a touch of soulfulness and elegance representing the ultimate expression of artistic talent. The classicism of the Traditionnelle collection; the minimalism of the Patrimony watches; the allure of Égérie; and the sporty-chic spirit of Overseas, all vividly illustrate this alchemy within which artistry is inspired by geometrical shapes, expressed through Vacheron Constantin’s 2024 theme.
