The Watch
In the late 1950s, Vacheron and Constantin focused on producing dress watches with high finishing, there's a reason why they are considered part of the "Holy Trinity of Watchmaking" alongside Patek Philippe and Audemars Piguet. The brand has always maintained its uncompromising pursuit of perfection on the inside and out of every timepiece to be released over the past 265 years.
.
Vacheron & Constantin has established itself globally, becoming highly regarded in both watch collecting circles and high society. Acclaimed for their superior skill with design and quality they have created timepieces for such nobles as Empress Eugenie to whom they supplied a pendant watch, a pocket watch for Tsar Alexander II and several watches for Emperor Napoleon II that carried his portrait.
