Introducing: The Vacheron Constantin Patrimony Perpetual Calendar Extremely-Skinny With Blue Dial

In a approach this watch is an anachronism within the context of recent perpetual calendars. Perpetual calendars have advanced to a tremendous extent within the final twenty years, and absolutely synchronized perpetual calendars, a few of which may simply be set forwards or backwards with out damaging the motion, have develop into increasingly more prevalent. Nevertheless there’s a lot to be stated for this method as properly – it is a very distinguished motion, in a fully traditional structure, from a producer whose stock-in-trade is doing issues the quaint approach. And naturally, the usage of this motion permits for the development of an elegantly skinny perpetual calendar watch, at eight.9mm thick (for reference, the thinnest perpetual calendar ever, no less than thus far, is the AP RD #2, at 6.30mm thick – nevertheless that is to this point an idea moderately than a manufacturing watch) Positive, it is likely to be mid-20th century watchmaking from an engineering standpoint, however that is not a nasty factor in any respect on this case – in any case, not for nothing do many connoisseurs consider the 1950s and early 1960s because the excessive water mark for watch design, and this traditional design is strikingly lovely in blue.
