Housed in a 44 mm 18K 5N pink gold case, the Traditionnelle 88172/000R-X0001 pairs a metal dial bearing applied gold hour markers with a sapphire crystal above and a transparent sapphire case back below. The open caseback invites a direct view of the mechanical movement, while the pink gold crown and 30-metre water resistance round out the case specification.
A dark brown Alligator Mississippiensis leather strap keeps the watch firmly rooted in classical dress-watch tradition, secured by an 18K 5N pink gold deployant buckle that complements the warm tone of the case metal throughout.
This example of the Traditionnelle is accompanied by its original box and papers, offering the full ownership experience for one of Vacheron Constantin's most technically ambitious references in the collection.
