About This Watch
The Vacheron Constantin Traditionnelle Manual-Winding embodies the classical Geneva watchmaking tradition in its purest form. The 38mm 18k rose gold case houses the caliber 4400, an in-house manually wound movement that represents the modern foundation of Vacheron Constantin's mechanical collection. At just 2.8mm thick, the caliber 4400 enables the slim 7.8mm case profile that is essential for a formal dress watch. The silver dial features applied rose gold baton hour markers, Dauphine hands, and a small seconds register at 6 o'clock, all arranged with classical symmetry. The Traditionnelle collection draws its design DNA from the round dress watches that Vacheron Constantin excelled at producing throughout the 20th century, characterized by thin profiles, precious metal cases, and movements finished to the highest Geneva standards. Through the sapphire caseback, the movement displays impeccable hand decoration: Côtes de Genève on the bridges, circular graining on the mainplate, beveled and polished edges, and the Geneva Seal stamp confirming compliance with the most rigorous quality criteria in Swiss watchmaking.
