Vacheron Constantin M̩tiers d'Art Ajour̩es Only Watch 2015 : Ref Number 82020/000G-B143

A contemporary reinterpretation of the ancestral art of hand engraving, the finely openworkedmechanism of the M̩tiers d‰۪Art M̩caniques Ajour̩es model is further ennobled by another artisticcraft in which the Manufacture Vacheron Constantin has excelled since its origins: Grand Feuenamelling. Once again demonstrating the full extent of their expertise, the in-house enamellingartisans have created a ring topping the calibre by dint of meticulous work calling for extremevirtuosity, since the circular shape of the ring to be enamelled implies substantial risks of distortion.This perilous exercise thus brilliantly performed was compounded by a further difficulty: that ofachieving one of the shades most difficult to create with Grand Feu enamel: a deep red payingtribute to the Principality of Monaco. To render the vivid beauty of this red hue, the masterenamellist had to create a perfectly smooth and uniform surface so as to avoid the appearance ofany undesirable bubbles during the successive firings of the enamel.The Grand Feu enamelled ring is accentuated by Roman numerals evoking those of the central clocksin the large railway stations of late 19th century Europe, thereby forming a visible connection with thearchitectural motifs engraved on the calibre. Furthermore, the openworked ONLY WATCH logo onthe ring at 3 o‰۪clock celebrates this charity event organized by the MONACO YACHT SHOW, PHILLIPS‰۪watch department and the MONACO ASSOCIATION AGAINST MUSCULAR DYSTROPHY.
