Vacheron Constantin has expanded its collection of titanium watches with the introduction of the Overseas tourbillon model. Crafted entirely from titanium, including the case, bracelet, crown, and bezel, this timepiece features the collection’s iconic blue dial and is powered by the ultra-thin self-winding Calibre 2160.
The Overseas tourbillon showcases a visible tourbillon regulator at 6 o’clock, accentuated by a dial opening, and is equipped with an 22K gold peripheral oscillating weight ensuring a remarkable over three-day power reserve. With meticulous finishing both on the titanium case and the movement, this timepiece perfectly embodies the travel-inspired essence of the Overseas collection.
Titanium, renowned for its lightweight and durable properties, aligns seamlessly with the adventurous and sporty codes of the Overseas collection. Introduced in 1996 and reimagined in subsequent years, Overseas embodies a spirit of exploration reminiscent of Vacheron Constantin’s pioneering heritage since the 19th century.
The intricate finishing work on the Overseas tourbillon, including vertical satin-brushed detailing on the bracelet and a circular satin-brushed finish on the bezel, exemplifies the Maison’s commitment to excellence. The translucent blue-lacquered dial, adorned with a sunburst satin-brushed flange, adds to the model’s allure, creating a striking contrast against the bezel’s matte finish.
At the heart of this timepiece lies the ultra-thin Calibre 2160, meticulously crafted to accommodate the tourbillon complication while maintaining a sleek profile. With a 22K gold peripheral oscillating weight ensuring an 80-hour power reserve, the movement showcases Vacheron Constantin’s technical expertise in ultra-thin complication movements.
This Overseas tourbillon model offers versatility with its interchangeable bracelet and straps. The integrated titanium bracelet, featuring a triple-blade folding clasp, can be effortlessly swapped out for blue calfskin leather or rubber straps, providing options to suit various occasions.
From the meticulous craftsmanship of the movement to the versatile design, the Overseas tourbillon embodies the fusion of technical innovation and artistic expression synonymous with Vacheron Constantin. As part of the brand’s annual theme, which explores the intersection of geometry and artistry, this timepiece exemplifies the harmony between precision engineering and timeless elegance.
