From Vacheron Constantin, which launched its most gem-encrusted Overseas to date, to Alterum, which took minimalism to the extreme, it was a week full of contrasts. Nothing could have prepared us for Vacheron breaking its design codes and presenting something so special, which, while exuberant, still retains the typical elegance of the Holy Trinity brand. And I could never have imagined how much the base metal would make a difference, even when covered with diamonds, completely changing the look of the timepieces. Discover the rest of the selection below and enjoy reading!
Vacheron Constantin Overseas Self-Winding High Jewellery
Vacheron Constantin unveils the first fully gem-set Overseas in two different metals.
Both are in the 35mm size, but while the 18K white gold has an ethereal look due to the lack of colour, the 18K 5N pink gold still clearly shows the Overseas’ shape.
Each timepiece is set with 1,430 diamonds, alternating brilliant cuts for dial and bracelet and baguettes for indices and bezel.
Price: on Request.
