Les Cabinotiers Majestic Tiger White Gold / Red Wood

In Context

At 41 mm it is sized to the current mainstream: 40 mm is the median across every watch measured in this catalogue. At 12.4 mm it is a tall case, and it will catch on a cuff. The case back is closed, so the movement stays out of sight, and the sapphire crystal will resist everything short of deliberate abuse. Rated to 30 m, it is protected against rain and splashes and nothing beyond that.

The movement winds itself from the motion of your wrist. 40 hours of reserve carries it overnight, but not through a weekend in a drawer. At 28,800 vph the seconds hand advances 8 times a second.

7600C/000G-B455 is one of 4 executions of the 7600C/000G base reference. Underneath they are the same watch; what separates this one is a multi-color dial and a white gold case. It was a limited edition. Introduced in 2019.

The 2460 G4 is Vacheron Constantin's four-aperture automatic, which leaves the centre of the dial free for the Métiers d'Art decoration. Hours and minutes drag past two windows and the day and date jump in two more. It powers 35 watches in this library. The base is the 2460, the in-house automatic Vacheron Constantin introduced in 2005 with a 22-carat gold rotor, 28,800 vph and a 40-hour reserve. The G4 display puts all four indications on discs at the edge of the dial, two of them dragging continuously and two jumping at midnight, so the centre is uninterrupted by hands and can carry enamel, engraving or marquetry. The movement has 27 jewels and a 31 mm diameter, and every one carries the Hallmark of Geneva. The G4/1 and G4/2 are its variants. In the library it sits under 28 [Métiers d'Art](/brands/vacheron-constantin/metiers-d-art) references, the annual Legend of the Chinese Zodiac series in platinum and pink gold and the Les Univers Infinis dials, and 7 [Les Cabinotiers](/brands/vacheron-constantin/artelier-cabinotiers-special-order) special orders. The 40 mm case accounts for 26 references and the 41 mm for 7. Every one of the 35 is a limited edition. The [2460 SC](/calibers/vacheron-constantin-2460-sc) is the same base with conventional hands, and the glossary defines the [guilloché](/glossary/guilloche) the dials are often built on.

34 other watches in the library run the Vacheron Constantin 2460 G4.
