The name of this watch from the longest continually operating Swiss watch brand says it all. The 18-karat pink gold 41mm watch is powered by a mechanical 242-part, self-winding movement made in-house by the brand. The dial is open-worked, allowing for viewing of some of the finely finished movement parts (the rest are visible from the sapphire caseback), as well as the large tourbillon at 6 o'clock. The watch also offers a retrograde date display from 9 o'clock to 3 o'clock on the dial. When the date arrow hand reaches the last day of the month, it jumps back to the first day to start its trek again. The watch carries the Hallmark of Geneva Seal.

Operating uninterrupted for 260 years, Vacheron Constantin is the oldest watchmaking manufacturer in Switzerland. At no time in history has the watchmaker ceased to create, overcome and enhance the horological landscape, contributing greatly to the technical advancements that we benefit from today. To date, the company still strives to achieve the best artistry, agility and dependability, making its watches interactive and robust in a bid to both fascinate and serve its wearer.The limitlessness of the brand is reflected by the astrological inspiration of its collections. Even from its Traditionnelle line, the sculpted dragons and birds found on the watch surface prance around an eye-catching sphere of linear and triangular lines that allude to the horoscopic symbol. Similarly celestial, the Fistysix and Égérie collections depict the versatility of time through sun and moon phase displays and feature a complex, self-winding mechanism.
