For the past twenty years, the Vacheron Constantin Patrimony collection has drawn abundant inspiration from the minimalist style of the 1950s, and the new Patrimony retrograde calendar moon phase watch continues this tradition. It features a 42.5mm platinum case and a silver-tone sunburst satin-finished dial.
The precision moon phase display shows the waxing and waning of the moon through a window at 6 o'clock, accurately representing the moon's cycle (a total of 29 days, 12 hours, and 45 minutes). This precision moon phase function only needs to be adjusted once every 122 years. Another complication is the retrograde calendar display located in the upper half of the dial, showcasing Vacheron Constantin's expertise and aesthetic design.
The watch is powered by the in-house 2460 R31L self-winding movement, integrating two complex watch functions. Through the sapphire crystal caseback, the intricate 18K gold openworked rotor can be admired, inspired by the brand's Maltese cross emblem.
The new Patrimony retrograde calendar moon phase watch creates a harmonious visual aesthetic with its simple and elegant design. In addition, it is paired with a new olive green alligator leather strap, adding a touch of unique color to the wrist.
