Vacheron Constantin - Overseas Chronograph Perpetual Calendar 18 Carat Pink Gold NEW
The Overseas Chronograph Perpetual Calendar model in 18- carat pink gold is the latest addition to Overseas collection, Vacheron Constantin’s
sporting and technical line. This elegant and highly technical
timepiece boasts a chronograph and a perpetual calendar – two of the
complications most favoured by devotees of mechanical Haute Horlogerie.
This
Overseas Perpetual Calendar model, boasting all the signature features
of this collection, radiates a sophisticated, refined and immediately
recognisable character – starting with the flowing and powerful lines of
its case, the bezel inspired by
Vacheron Constantin’s Maltese Cross
emblem, along with the hourmarkers, crown, screw-lock pushers, as well
as the caseback enhanced by a raised medallion depicting the famous
three-mast Amerigo Vespucci ship.

Its 18-carat pink gold 42 mm-diameter
case, like all men’s
Overseas models, is guaranteed water-resistant to
15 bar (approximately 150 metres) and houses a soft iron cage protecting
the mechanical movement from magnetic fields of up to 25,000 A/m.

The association between the pink colour of the case and the subtle sandy
shade of the dial lends a luxurious sporting touch to this model. Like
the other timepieces in this collection, the hands and hour-markers are
accented with white luminescent substance ensuring perfect readability
even in the dark.

This exceptional model representing a
compendium of technical Haute Horlogerie beats to the rhythm of
Calibre
1136 QP and its
228 parts: a mechanical self-winding movement – just as
one would expect from a sports watch – oscillating at the rate of 21,600
vibrations per hour and endowed with an approximately 40- hour power
reserve.

In addition to the hours, minutes and small seconds at 6 o’clock,
Calibre 1136 QP powers the chronograph functions – sweep seconds-hand,
30-minute counter at 3 o’clock and 12-hour counter at 9 o’clock – as
well as those of the perpetual calendar – day of the week, date,
48-month counter with leap years as well as a moon-phase display.

This
timepiece is also delivered with a luxurious presentation case equipped
with a rotating mechanism that enables the watch – when not worn – to be
kept perpetually wound and thereby ensure that the perpetual calendar
indications are properly adjusted.
