Crafted entirely in platinum 950 — case, bezel, crown, and deployant buckle alike — this 44mm round Traditionnelle carries a measured 13.54mm thickness that speaks to the complexity housed within. A sapphire caseback offers an unobstructed view of the movement, inviting appreciation of the tourbillon and perpetual calendar mechanisms that define this reference.
The metal dial is paired with a dark blue alligator Mississippiensis strap, lending the piece a considered contrast between the cool luminosity of platinum and the depth of the strap's color. The deployant buckle, also rendered in platinum 950, ensures the finishing extends consistently across every element of the watch.
Reference 80172/000P-9589 sits within Vacheron Constantin's Traditionnelle collection, a line long associated with classical proportions and high complications presented in a round case format suited to formal wear.
