The Swiss timepiece manufacture Vacheron Constantin is about to release its new horological masterpiece – the Quai de l'Ile Retrograde Annual Calendar watch.Launched in 2008, the original Quai de I'Ile timepiece was enthusiastically received by the discerning audience. Then, the public could enjoy the Day-Date Self Winding and Day-Date with Power Reserve versions of this model. Now, the line is joined by a stunning timepiece equipped with a Retrograde Annual Calendar complication.The aforementioned retrograde date indicator is found on an extremely legible dial, which can be dressed in different colors. The calendar, which requires correction once a year, is located on a segment, extending from 2 to 5 o'clock.The display of the new Vacheron Constantin watch is visually balanced by a moon-phase indicator, which needs to be manually corrected just once per 122 years.Positioned at 9 o'clock and artfully combined with a small seconds hand, this counter overlaps with a month sub-dial. The latter is slightly shifted away from its traditional 6 o'clock position, which lends the timepiece its exceptional character.Pointing to the hours and minutes are appealing central hands, crafted from gold. They circulate over Arabic numerals, which alternate with stick-shaped hour-markers. Completing the impeccable appearance of the display is the brand's logo, residing beneath the 12 o'clock hour-marker.The dial of the new Quai de l'Ile Retrograde Annual Calendar watch is gently hugged by a cushion-shaped case, which measures 43 mm in diameter. It is sculptured either in white gold, rose gold or a marvelous combination of these two materials. The case is offset by an elegant bezel, rendered in white or rose gold. The winding crown, nestled at 3 o'clock, captures attention with its refinement. The company's craftsmen have also equipped the timepiece with high-grade top and bottom sapphire crystals.The absolute precision of the model is guaranteed by a manufactory-made self-winding caliber 2460 QRA movement. Composed of 326 individual parts, the mechanism operates at a frequency of 28,800 vibrations per hour and offers a 40-hour power reserve.A consummate combination of technical performance and ultimate elegance of design, the new Vacheron Constantin watch is delivered on a black or brown alligator leather strap.Alternatively, it can be mounted on a black or brown rubber strap, closed with a folding clasp in white or rose gold.
