Shaped in the distinctive tonneau form that defines the Malte collection, this reference houses its 18K 5N pink gold case, bezel, and crown within dimensions of 42.1 mm × 36.7 mm and a thickness of just 9.25 mm. A sapphire glass transparent caseback closes the piece, offering a view through to the movement within, while water resistance is rated to 3 bar.
The metal dial is paired with a black alligator Mississippiensis strap, secured by an ardillon buckle fashioned in matching 18K 5N pink gold. Every element of the case architecture — from bezel to crown — shares the same warm 5N pink gold composition, lending the watch a unified and refined appearance.
Reference 82230/000R-9716 represents Vacheron Constantin's Malte line in a configuration that balances an unconventional case geometry with the warmth of rose gold and the suppleness of a fine alligator strap.
