Vacheron Constantin: Métiers D’Art Tribute To The Celestial
Celebrating the beauty and mystery of the night sky, Vacheron Constantin introduces the Métiers d’Art Tribute to The Celestial, a series of 12 references. Each dial features a hand-guilloché illustration of one of the zodiac signs and its associated constellation, which is highlighted by diamond ‘stars’. Presented in an elegant 39 mm white gold case set with baguette-cut blue sapphires to complement the blue dials, the watches are powered by the ultra-thin self-winding manufacture movement with a tourbillon, Calibre 2160.

True to its storied heritage, yet open to contemporary energy, this latest iteration makes a confident statement with an electrifying purple dial.
Why blend in, when you can stand out?
Jaquet Droz: Tourbillon Dragon John Howe
Jaquet Droz is reaffirming its commitment to Art in all its forms with the formation of a creative triptych bringing together a collector, the artist of their choice, and the artists at Jaquet Droz.
These three voices join forces to create a single piece, to the collector’s specific brief. The artist creates a painting, sculpture or engraving that is reproduced in miniature by Jaquet Droz’s Ateliers d’Art and incorporated into a unique hand-crafted timepiece. In this way, the collector receives two works of art: the original piece and its watchmaking twin, linked by time.
This immersive, collaborative approach gives the collector the opportunity to keep the soul of their masterpiece on their wrist, and to travel with it.

This one-of-a-kind timepiece is a complete work of horological art, inspired by the autumn foliage of Lake Saimaa, with numerous details reflecting Finnish national symbols.
