Carrying the Hallmark of Geneva certification, the 18K rose gold Overseas Ultra-Thin Perpetual Calendar measures 8.1mm in thickness. This is a watchmaking feat, given that the complicated 276-part movement has hours, minutes, moonphase, date, day of the week, month and leap year indications, without needing a correction until the year 2100. One of the slimmest perpetual calendar watches on the market to date, the Vacheron Constantin caliber 1120 QP/1 ultra-thin mechanical, self-winding movement that powers it measures a mere 4.05mm in thickness. The case measures 41.5mm in diameter and has a soft iron casing ring to ensure anti-magnetic protection. It offers 60 hours of power reserve and is water resistant to 150 meters. The silver translucent lacquer dial has 18K gold hands and hour markers that are also highlighted with luminescence. A transparent sapphire caseback reveals the beauty of the finely finished movement and pared-down components.

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.
