European Watch Clock and Jewellery Fair 1992 BF 261
A minute repeater now joins the Vacheron Constantin collection. This masculine model with leather strap offers a choice of ’18K yellow gold or 950 platinum case. The exact replica of a Vacheron Constantin model from the Thirties, it owes its revival to advanced technology. The handwound movement, 31.40 mm across, is amazingly thin : only 3.30 mm. With a 4.8-hour power reserve, it strikes on demand the hours, quarters and minutes on two gongs. Only 200 of this limited-edition model are to be made. (VACHERON CONSTANTIN)
