Combining technical excellence with exceptional craftsmanship, this timepiece embodies the pinnacle of fine watchmaking.
A Revolutionary Anniversary Movement
At the heart of this watch beats the caliber 2162 QP/270, a true horological marvel.

A feat of engineering that blends elegance with precision.
Elegant and Refined Design
The 42 mm 950 platinum case, with its fine bezel and fluted caseback, epitomizes the sophistication of the Traditionnelle collection. Its 18-carat gold dial, adorned with a Malta cross-inspired guilloché pattern, captures light from every angle, while the dauphine hands and railroad-style minute track add a classic touch.
A Legacy Immortalized
The sapphire caseback reveals a movement finished with the signature “côte unique,” an aesthetic recently rediscovered by the Maison. The discreet “270th Anniversary” engraving honors this historic moment. The watch is completed with a blue night alligator leather strap and a platinum deployant clasp, ensuring both comfort and elegance.
Conclusion: A Limited Masterpiece
The Traditionnelle Tourbillon Quantième Perpétuel is more than just a watch; it is a unique collector’s piece. With only 127 examples, it represents the perfect blend of horological complications and exceptional savoir-faire, standing as a symbol of Vacheron Constantin’s excellence.
