Introducing The Vacheron Constantin Patrimony Manual Winding 39MM And Moon Phase Retrograde Date
One of the novelties presented at the Watches And Wonders by Vacheron Constantin was the new Patrimony, which arrived in the new 39mm size, with a new look on the dial and in a thinner case.
There are three new entries in the collection and they are the Patrimony Manual-Winding which comes in two variants, one in 18k white gold and the other in 18k pink gold, and finally the Patrimony Moon Phase Retrograde Date which comes in an 18k white gold case, in a wider case measuring 42.50mm by 9.70mm.
The three new Patrimony all feature an aged silver dial, with gold hour markers applied in the shape of triangles at 3-6-9-12 hours and in the shape of a baton at the remaining hours and dots on the minute track. The two new 39mm versions add just two centre pencil hands while the wider 42.50mm version beyond the hands adds a retrograde date on the upper half of the dial and an aperture with the phases of the moon at 6 o’clock.
Inside, the new Patrimony Manual-Winding 39mm comes equipped with the Caliber 1440, just 2.60mm thick, which runs at 28,800 Vph and offers up to 42 hours of power reserve, which is protected by a solid gold case back. In the Patrimony Moon Phase Retrograde Date we find the Caliber 2460 R31L automatic movement with 275 components that works at a frequency of 4 Hz and offers up to 40 hours of power reserve.
The watches come attached to an alligator leather strap in olive green for both versions in 18k white gold and in light blue for the 18k pink gold version with a pin buckle in the same material as the case and in the shape of the Maltese cross , with prices to be provided on request.
