4400

About the Vacheron Constantin 4400

It beats at 28,800 vph and stores 65 hours in a single barrel, long for a hand-wound movement, with hours and minutes and no seconds, which leaves a decorated dial uninterrupted. The 4400 AS adds a small seconds for the Traditionnelle and the American 1921.

In the library it powers 12 Métiers d'Art references at 37 mm, the Florilège series with its enamel botanical plates among them, 4 Traditionnelles, one Les Cabinotiers and one Patrimony. 13 are limited editions.

The 1400 is the smaller hand-wound movement of the Patrimony, and the 2460 SC the automatic beside it.
