Vacheron Constantin Patrimony Collection Excellence Platine

Vacheron Constantin Patrimony Collection Excellence Platine

Vacheron Constantin’s latest Patrimony Collection Excellence Platine is the quintessential all-platinum, three-hand dress watch collection, but with a fresh new take and contemporary proportions. The Collection Excellence Platine is a phrase Vacheron uses for limited edition watches they release with cases and dials made from 950 platinum. The Patrimony collection’s most significant feature is in fact this 44 mm case of 950 platinum with a thin, polished bezel and simple curved lugs. It is also a slim watch at 7.65mm. The baton hour markers and primary hands are polished 18ct white gold with a hint of colour present in the form of heat-blued steel seconds hands The most significant thing about the watch is the movement—the caliber 4400 AS—a manually wound, time-only movement that provides 65 hours of power reserve and beats at 28,800bph. It is also stamped with the Geneva Seal as many other Vacheron Constantin watches are. The movement is on display through a sapphire crystal case back, and the watch is rated at 30m of water resistance.
