Métiers d'Art La Symbolique Des Laques : 33222/000R-9704

The Vacheron Constantin Métiers d'Art La Symbolique Des Laques Tsukimi Autumn model, reference number 33222/000R-9704, is a meticulously crafted timepiece from the renowned watchmaker's 2012 collection. Featuring a 40.0 mm case made from luxurious rose gold, the watch combines traditional Swiss watchmaking with exquisite Japanese artistry through its lacquered dials, employing the maki-e technique. This model is part of a limited series, with only 20 sets produced annually, each containing three watches that celebrate different themes. The movement powering this piece is the ultra-thin Calibre 1003 SQ, known for its openworked design in 18K gold and ruthenium coating. The movement's slim profile at just 1.64 mm thickness and its intricate assembly of 117 components showcase Vacheron Constantin's commitment to precision and craftsmanship. A transparent caseback allows for a view of the movement, which is stamped with the prestigious Hallmark of Geneva. Completing its aesthetic, the watch features a black Mississippiensis alligator leather strap with large square scales, secured by an elegant pin buckle crafted in 18K pink gold adorned with a polished half Maltese cross. This model represents a harmonious blend of art and horology, epitomizing both cultural beauty and mechanical excellence.
