Time will stand still at the SIHH when Vacheron Constantin will unveil its Malte Tourbillon Regulator. Offered in 18 kt gold and platinum, this perfectly balanced tonneau case packs a manual-winding caliber 1790R. It has 27 jewels, beating at 18,000 bph and a power reserve of 40 hours. Some of the exceptional finishing operations on the 1790R movement can only be done by hand, particularly in the case of the bar, which takes 11 hours to hand-finish. Measuring a 40mm X 50mm, the crystal is sapphire.
The dial is 18kt gold done in five kinds of finishing for optimal reading: snailed, guilloched, opaline, vertical satin-finishing and circular satin-finishing. The dark-blue or brown hand-stitched, saddle-finish, square-scaled alligator leather strap can be clasped with a Platinum or 18kt gold buckle that features a half Maltese cross motif.

The 14 pink sapphires celebrate Valentine’s Day, and the heart set with 3 pink sapphires at 2 o’clock symbolizes the love of February.
As unique as your lady, this watch can be customized by replacing the pink sapphires with diamonds or blue sapphires, and to put a cabochon of a precious stone in the heart, or even to choose a bracelet that matches the dial.
A Luz Flamingo dial in encased in a stainless steel case. Powered by ETA quartz or mechanical hand wound Piguet 8.10, 17 pink sapphires add oomph to this purely feminine timepiece.
