Watch the Oscars

It was a moment that would be seared in watch-making history. The iconic Vacheron Constantin, for its Patrimony Contemporaine Retrograde Day and Date, was given first prize for the year 2007. The jury has rewarded and honored the excellence of the horological tradition that respects the Geneva Hallmark.

Stamped with the prestigious Geneva Hallmark, the caliber 2460 R31 R7 offers the hour and minute as well as retrograde date and day functions.

The 18K pink gold case is a generous 42.5 mm in diameter. Its convex sapphire back reveals the exceptional finishing and the decoration on the movement that has met Vacheron Constantin’s most stringent quality criteria.

At the end of each year, the two watch magazines Montres Passion and Uhrenwelt give the Watch of the Year Prize, an award made by a jury of professionals from the watch industry and announced at a ceremony that has become a key event of the watch year.

This elegant piece is a prime choice for both men and women.
