Vacheron Constantin opens a new chapter in its Métiers d’Art – Tribute to great civilisations collection. Born from the partnership with the Louvre Museum, a first series of watches was unveiled in 2022. Following this lineage, the Maison presents four new timepieces expressing the spirit of cultural exploration that lies deep in its soul. In close collaboration with the museum's curators, major works from the Department of Antiquities have been selected in honour of Pharaonic Egypt, the Assyrian Empire, Ancient Greece and Imperial Rome. Each of these eras is represented by an emblematic work preserved at the Louvre Museum, reproduced as a glyptic stone applique. Selecting stones of the same type and/or origin as those found in the Louvre required extensive research. This original approach to watchmaking is further enhanced by the ornamentations surrounding the four central figures and the peripheral friezes. This limited edition is equipped with the manufacture calibre 2460 G4/2, allowing for great artistic freedom.
