Vacheron Constantin has developed a new timepiece to join its emblematic Malte collection. The Malte Power Reserve and Date model has become a harmonious addition to the collection.
The Malte Power Reserve and Date is created for connoisseurs of traditional watchmaking and those who appreciate timepieces developed for refined everyday living. It may be presented as an elegant and valuable gift for serious-minded gentlemen who value long-established traditions.
As suggested by its name, the watch provides two advantageous complications, a power reserve and date function. The timepiece is presented in an attractively designed round-shaped case featuring slightly fanned horns. The case measures 38 mm in diameter, so it is a medium-sized timepieces in comparison to other watches in the Malte line.
Vacheron Constantin watchmakers have developed the model in two versions - 18K white or pink gold. The Power Reserve and Date watches feature a silvered dial in contemporary guilloche work to improve its legibility. The dial shows the time with help of central 18K gold fan-shaped hour and minute hands, while a seconds counter is found at six o'clock. As for the power reserve indicator, it is placed at eleven o'clock and reveals 18K gold applied facetted hour-markers. The large counter for the date function is featured at three o’clock.
In the heart of the Malte Power Reserve and Date watch there beats the brand's newly developed manual-wound 1420 movement. The mechanism is characterized by perfect finishing innate to every creation that belongs to the realms of traditional watchmaking craftsmanship. The immaculate operation of the movement to join the latest generation of mechanisms elaborated by the Geneva-based manufacture is guaranteed by the prestigious Geneva hallmark.
The Malte Power Reserve and Date watch is provided with a screw-down back. The timepiece boasts 30-meter water-resistance. The overall look of the timepiece is finely completed by a black or brown hand-stitched, square-scaled alligator leather strap equipped with a classic 18K white or pink gold buckle.
