Vacheron Constantin, the world's oldest Haute Horlogerie manufacturer with over 250 years of uninterrupted history, has cemented its Bond with China by opening its third Flagship boutique in the nation. The new Flagship boutique is located at 1881 Heritage, the revitalized site of one of Hong Kong's famous government building. A perfect location, the 1881 Heritage like Vacheron Constantin, is dedicated to preserving its traditions while integrating itself into contemporary lifestyle. The new boutique resembles or is in line with the design of Vacheron Constantin Maison in Geneva and is subtly decorated with a contemporary luxurious interior design harmonizing with the brand: precious wood, leather, and fixtures and furnishings emanating a warm and serene atmosphere. What is more, to celebrate the opening of the new store and to commemorate the strong relationship that Vacheron Constantin has with China, the manufacturer has introduced a very exclusive limited series of 3 "Dragons" watches.

Vacheron Constantin Historique Aronde 1954 (Ref. 81018/000R-9657)Last week one of the most revered Swiss watchmakers has presented its new Vacheron Constantin Historique Aronde 1954 (Ref. 81018/000R-9657) hand-wound watch in rose gold.Powered by the same Caliber 1400 manually-wound movement, that we have seen last year in the Vacheron Constantin Patrimony Contemporaine for Venezuela limited edition wrist watch, the new timekeeper is delivered in a uniquely shaped case, also made of rose gold.As you can see on the pictures, the elongated body of the watch features swallow-shaped sides that provide the ultra-thin timepiece with feather-light, even playful appearance.The visual lightness of the VC Historique Aronde 1954 is further supported with an opaline silvered dial with hand guilloche and hand-applied hour markers and Arabic numerals.The baton-shaped hands are also thin enough to be in harmony with the rest of the dial, but at the same time are also large enough for the watch to be completely legible.It is not yet clear whether Vacheron Constantin plans to sell the watch as a limited edition model or will produce as many timepieces as it will be able to sell.I surely hope that the latter will be true, since this new timepiece looks absolutely fabulous.
