Égérie Self-Winding 35 Pink Gold / Diamond / Silver

In Context

At 35 mm it is classically proportioned: the size a dress watch was understood to be for most of the twentieth century, and small enough to sit under a cuff. At 9.32 mm thick it is about average for a modern wristwatch. The case back is open, so the movement is visible without taking the watch apart, 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.

4605F/000R-B496 is one of 2 executions of the 4605F/000R base reference. Underneath they are the same watch; what separates this one is a silver dial and a pink gold case. Introduced in 2020.

A self-winding calibre with date built for the Égérie, Vacheron Constantin's women's line, and sized to that collection's off-centre dial rather than adapted from a men's movement. The 22-carat gold rotor is engraved with a compass rose, and the bridges behind the sapphire back carry Côtes de Genève. 144 components, and the seconds hand hacks for setting.

3 other watches in the library run the Vacheron Constantin 1088.
