Today’s Haute Time Watch of the Day is a one-of-a-kind timepiece by Vacheron Constantin created exclusively for the Moscow Boutique. The Traditionnelle Calibre 2253 Moscow Boutique timepiece is a one-of-a-kind piece created by Vacheron Constantin in celebration of the inauguration of the new Moscow Boutique just opened in the Berlin House in Moscow.

This exclusive piece exhibits the quality and craftsmanship of 260 years of watch making history. Powered by a Calibre 2253 mechanical, manual winding movement developed and created and manufactured by Vacheron, it features a perpetual calendar, the equation of time and sunrise and sunset times for the city of Moscow, along with a tourbillon and 14 day power reserve ~ and certified with The Hallmark of Geneva.

The case is 44mm created in 950 Platinum and features a sapphire crystal and transparent case back. The black opaline dial shows hours, minutes and small seconds at 6 o’clock along with the tourbillon cage decorated with the signature Vacheron Maltese cross. Indications on the dial also include a perpetual calendar with day of the week, date, month and leap year as well as the sunrise and sunset time in Moscow and a power reserve indicator on the back side of the timepiece.

Fitted with an elegant black Mississippi alligator leather strap which is hand stitched and saddle finished, the Tranditionnelle Calibre 2253 is equipped with a polished platinum triple blade folding clasp.

The Vacheron Constantin Traditionnelle Calibre 2253 Moscow Boutique edition timepiece is a unique piece and the only one that will be available and engraved with the number “1” on the case back. This special piece is delivered to the special client with a pair of 18k white gold cufflinks which matches the dial of the timepiece.
