3 highlights from the Vacheron Constantin Les Cabinotiers 2019 exhibition in Singapore
The Les Cabinotiers experience in Singapore, which combined lots of quality time in the company of Vacheron Constantin's Style and Heritage Director, Christian Selmoni, with a stunning tropical plantation style residence as a setting for the big watch reveals, really brought home one of the 'Holy Trinity' brand's key points of difference. It is exclusive to the highest degree. Vacheron Constantin is not increasing production, despite wait lists and shortages for key models Vacheron Constantin embodies the notion of less…
A primer on the Vacheron Constantin Les Cabinotiers Collection, and why it gets us so darned excited
Editor's note: Justin Mastine-Frost, while being full of energy as a human being, is not what I would describe as 'excitable'.

GPHG "Innovation" Prize given to Vacheron Constantin Traditionnelle Twin Beat Perpetual Calendar
It's been a very busy week of watches in Geneva, with Only Watch 2019 setting new records, and the Grand Prix d'Horlogerie de Genève (GPHG) awarding prizes to some of the best watches of the year (which included some upsets). Amidst the clamour and drama of the GPHG, where the pitting of brands head to head can increase the blood pressure of some ardent watch enthusiasts, the focus can sometimes miss the truly impressive feats of technical engineering that are…
