Vacheron Constantin has long been known for producing exquisite and highly complicated timepieces since the founding of the firm in 1755. Considered as one of the world’s oldest manufacturer of timepieces, Vacheron Constantin has developed a competitive advantage over others. With an archive that dates back a couple of hundred years, the firm is able to produce in-house movements inspired by the past.

Confirmed by archives, the very first watch created by founder of Vacheron Constantin, Jean-Marc Vacheron, featured an open-worked movement with engraved balance-cock, and setting the foundation since. The Malte Openworked Tourbillon is a testament of how traditional watchmaking remains as an important factor today, combining inspirations from the past with contemporary and innovative features. The result is a beautiful skeletonized wristwatch with engraved bridges to reflect the past, fitted with a tourbillon to display the capabilities of the modern manufacture today. The bridges, mainplate and barrel are hand engraved by Vacheron Constantin artisans requiring extreme precision to execute.

The present example is offered with an Extract from the Archives issued by Vacheron Constantin confirming the production of the present example in 2006 encased in platinum and further accompanied by the original presentation box.
