Integrating traditional Swiss watchmaking with contemporary innovations, Vacheron Constantin has been creating timepieces at the highest level for centuries with a superiority in creating some of the most iconic skeletonized wristwatches since the early 1920s. The firm’s Metiers D'Art department is one that is responsible for giving an artistic life to their horological masterpieces, preserving and displaying traditional Swiss watchmaking crafts such as hand-engraving and enamelling.

The present Vacheron Constantin Metiers D'Art Mecaniques Ajourees features a fully skeletonized movement displayed via sapphire crystals on the front and back. Detailed by hand, the engraved bridges and barrel are a sight to behold. Contrasted by a blue grand feu enamel chapter ring, skeletonized Roman numerals on top provides a sense of depth and legibility. Housed in a 40mm diameter round-shaped case in white gold, the feel is contemporary. A perfect marriage between old traditional craft fused with contemporary finishing, the present example is a perfect choice for collectors of skeletonized watches.
