SIHH 2015: Metiers d'Art Mecaniques Gravees Calibre 2260: At the occasion of its 260th anniversary celebrations we are enriching our Métiers d’Art collection with the Mecaniques Gravees calibre 2260 Tourbillon featuring an amazing 14 day power reserve and distinguished by its etirely hand-engraved movement housed in a 41mm platinum case.
The plates and bridges of the hand-wound Cal 2260 are adorned with delicate floral motifs, reminiscent of the engravings gracing the first pocket watches created by Vacheron Constantin from 1755 onwards. It takes close to 10 days to engrave just one movement!
Engraving, which has been used in watchmaking right from its very origins, is a demanding art requiring extreme expertise and dexterity on the part of the master artisan who sculpts tiny parts without ever compromising their perfect aesthetic and functionality. The skilfully engraved parts endow these timepieces with a distinctive stature, confirmed by the Hallmark of Geneva. For more information http://bit.ly/17OM5Fc
