Vacheron Constantin replica Launches Three Traditionnelle Openface Watches to Celebrate 270th Anniversary A limited-edition 950 platinum timepiece elegantly showcases the essence of mechanical watchmaking.
Vacheron Constantin’s anniversary celebrations are highly anticipated. The 270-year-old watchmaker kicked off its festivities in January with the stainless steel Historiques 222. Yesterday, the brand launched the new Les Cabinotiers Solaria Ultra Grand Complication, arguably its most complicated timepiece to date and a high-end successor to the Historiques 222. Together with the Traditionnelle Tourbillon Perpetual Calendar, also launched yesterday, these three watches form an impressive anniversary lineup. But Vacheron Constantin’s celebrations don’t stop there. The brand also announced three limited-edition Traditionnelle Openface 270th Anniversary watches. These timepieces, with their unique style, showcase the essence of traditional watchmaking craftsmanship.
These Traditionnelle Openface watches embody two of Vacheron Constantin’s signature principles. Firstly, they pay homage to the tradition of mechanical watchmaking, showcasing the beauty of the movement’s inner workings. Secondly, they celebrate the brand’s proud retrograde display function. Building upon the existing modern design of the Traditionnelle collection, Vacheron Constantin has created this new series of watches. The three new models are: Traditionnelle Perpetual Calendar Retrograde Date Openface, Traditionnelle Tourbillon Retrograde Date Openface, and Traditionnelle Complete Calendar Openface. Each watch is limited to 370 pieces and features a specially designed 270th anniversary dial. best replica watches review
Vacheron Constantin Traditionnelle Perpetual Calendar Retrograde Date Openface
Let’s first look at the Traditionnelle series retrograde date perpetual calendar openface watch (model: 4030T/000P-H054). Building upon the previously mentioned conceptual features, this watch is equipped with a brand-new movement, making it the standout among the three. It features a 41mm platinum case, only 10.94mm thick. The Traditionnelle case is notable for its recessed case back and slim bezel. The slim bezel design ensures maximum display of the dial. To commemorate the brand’s 270th anniversary, Vacheron Constantin specially crafted dials adorned with hand-guilloché guilloché for these three watches. The lines forming the guilloché ultimately converge to form the brand’s iconic Maltese cross.
All three watches feature skeletonized dials. Therefore, their guilloché is not as prominent as that of the Traditionnelle Tourbillon Perpetual Calendar watch released yesterday. However, these patterns still add exquisite detail to the watches. All three watches feature dials adorned with the signature railway-style minute track and applied gold baton hour markers. Above the dial, faceted dauphine hands, both hour and minute, are suspended, complemented by a blue arrow-shaped date hand. In this watch, the date hand is linked to the retrograde date display. fashion replica watches
The skeletonized dial showcases the new in-house 2460 QPR31/270 movement.
As you can see, the date, month, and leap year cycle are displayed in white lettering on a transparent sapphire crystal disc, with a deep blue background further emphasizing each numeral. The moon phase display at 6 o’clock tracks the actual 29-day, 12-hour, and 45-minute cycle of the moon. This display is based on the actual morphology of the lunar surface and only needs correction every 122 years. Finally, the retrograde date display is located within the hour markers in the upper half of the dial. The blue date numerals echo the stylish blue hands, remaining highly legible against the silver background.
This watch is powered by the new in-house 2460 QPR31/270 movement. This complex automatic movement is only 5.45 mm thick and consists of 312 parts. Operating at 4 Hz, it features 27 jewels and offers a 40-hour power reserve. Small pushers on either side of the platinum case allow for adjustment of the various functions.
Furthermore, every component of the movement is meticulously hand-finished. Particularly noteworthy is the bridge, which features the same unique wave-pattern finish as the Traditionnelle Tourbillon Perpetual Calendar. The rose gold rotor adorned with a large Maltese cross is also particularly striking.
This new Traditionnelle Perpetual Calendar Retrograde Date Open Face watch is a limited edition, each piece featuring a dark blue alligator leather strap and a platinum pin buckle. Additionally, each watch is engraved with a unique limited edition number on the case back.
The second of the three timepieces is the Vacheron Constantin Traditionnelle Tourbillon Retrograde Date Openface (model: 6010T/000P-H055). Unlike the previous model, this is a new version of an existing model, namely the rose gold version with a grey dial (model: 6010T/000R-B638). This watch features a similar 41mm platinum Traditionnelle case to the previous model, with a thickness of 11.07mm. The case is paired with a skeletonized 18K silver gold dial, decorated with the same Maltese cross guilloché pattern, railway-style minute markers, white gold hour markers, white gold dauphine hands, and a deep blue retrograde date hand, creating a seamless overall design.
As you can see, the layout of this watch is quite simple and straightforward, as it “simply” combines a retrograde date display and a tourbillon function. The date display is located within the hour markers in the upper half of the dial. The tourbillon is positioned at 6 o’clock, occupying most of the lower half of the dial. A large space is left between the tourbillon and the tourbillon, through which part of the internal workings of the in-house 2162 R31/270 movement can be seen.
This automatic movement consists of 242 parts, vibrates at 18,000 vibrations per hour, and has a 72-hour power reserve. Thanks to the beautifully finished rose gold peripheral rotor, the movement is only 6.35 mm thick. Furthermore, the finishing of the movement is equally exquisite. In addition to the 270th anniversary logo, the bridges are also decorated with the same delicate “côte unique” finish.
Finally, this watch will be equipped with a dark blue alligator leather strap with a platinum pin buckle, completing the overall design. As with the previous model, pricing is available upon request from customer service. https://www.grand-watch.co
The Vacheron Constantin Traditionnelle Full Calendar Openface watch (model: 4020T/000P-H038) adds a finishing touch to these three special timepieces. This watch is also based on a classic model from the brand’s existing collection. The new watch launched today also features a 41mm platinum case, 11.05mm thick, and water-resistant to 30 meters. The case is paired with a skeletonized dial that displays the day, date, month, and moon phase. However, since it is only a full calendar watch and not a perpetual calendar watch, it lacks a leap year display function.
As you can see, the blue numerals for the date display are located outside the hour markers on the outer edge of the dial. A slender blue central hand, along with dauphine hour and minute hands, indicates the date.
Furthermore, the date and month displays are similar to those of the Traditionnelle Perpetual Calendar Retrograde Date Openface watch. However, the sapphire crystal is positioned higher to make room for the moon phase display at 6 o’clock. This precise moon phase display only needs adjustment once every 122 years.
The newly manufactured 2460 QCL/270 movement makes all watchmaking wonders possible. This self-winding movement, composed of 312 parts, is a modern version of the brand’s first self-winding movement, the 2450, launched in 2007.
As seen in other models in the regular collection, the movement of this watch is not entirely new. Its uniqueness lies in its special finishing to commemorate the 270th anniversary. Like other models in the collection, the movement is engraved with a 270th anniversary badge and adorned with the same unique wave-pattern finish. Therefore, this watch is the perfect finale to the collection.
Like the other two watches, the Traditionalnelle Complete Calendar Openface watch also features a blue alligator leather strap and a platinum pin buckle, exuding elegance. Furthermore, its unique limited edition number is engraved on the case back.
Final Thoughts on the Traditionnelle 270th Anniversary Openface Limited Edition
In conclusion, these three watches are true classics among the 270th anniversary editions. Given their special commemorative significance and limited release, I have no doubt they will soon be snapped up by collectors. The release of these watches perfectly showcases the unique charm of the Vacheron Constantin brand.
While these three openface watches may not be as stunning as the Traditionnelle Tourbillon Perpetual Calendar or the breathtaking Les Cabinotiers Solaria Ultra Grand Complication, they are exquisitely elegant, a hallmark of the 270-year-old Vacheron Constantin brand. They provide a perfect ending to the Traditionnelle collection’s anniversary editions. Therefore, we can say that Vacheron Constantin has gone to great lengths to celebrate its 270th anniversary.
