Tourbillon 41MM Pink Gold Silver Dial

Fiftysix Tourbillon – Majestic 18K Pink Gold Chassis and the Artistic Heritage of the Scalloped Lugs Blueprint

The structural case framework projects absolute horological dominance through its refined contours, achieving a perfectly balanced 41 mm diameter scale and an ultra-slim thickness of 10.94 mm to sit comfortably as an elite high-complication dress watch. The entire integrated body, sloping polished bezel, and notched crown are masterfully sculpted from solid 18K Pink Gold—selected exclusively by the Maison to present a warm, opulent pink metallic luster that tracks ambient light beautifully. The architectural design codes honor the legendary 1956 reference, seamlessly integrating the stepped lugs whose profiles represent the four branches of the Maltese Cross emblem.

Elevating its vintage charisma, the container is topped with a historic box-type sapphire crystal that rises prominently above the bezel rim, mimicking the curved plexiglass domes of ancestral horology while providing superb optical distortion-free viewing. The reverse exhibition window exposes the hand-decorated mechanical execution of the movement. The high-grade structural container is securely sealed against dust and moisture to satisfy a daily-resilient 3 bar (30 m) water resistance, executing a flawless bridge between high-jewelry refinement and haute horlogerie mastery.

Iridescent Double Finished Silver Sector Façade Paved with Blue SuperLuminova

The visual dial canvas is beautifully laid bare across its highly customized, silver-toned face, utilizing a complex sector dial layout that divides the timekeeping landscape into concentric zones of contrasting textures for optimum scannability. The central focal area presents an understated matte opaline texture, while the outer chapter ring segment is finished with a striking sunburst satin-brushing that shifts dynamically from pristine silver to shimmering platinum under direct light. The track combines applied 18K gold baton index points with alternating bold Arabic numerals, framed by a traditional internal railway-type minute counter. The absolute nocturnal legibility is driven by solid gold baton hands and indices heavily inlaid with a premium blue SuperLuminova® compound that radiates a sharp luminescence.

The crowning mechanical achievement beats majestically at 6 o’clock, where an expansive aperture reveals the hypnotic rotation of the high-precision tourbillon carriage. The custom tourbillon frame, meticulously openworked and hand-carved into the definitive silhouette of Vacheron Constantin’s Maltese Cross symbol, requires absolute mastery to balance and finish. This horological mechanism completely nullifies the destabilizing effects of Earth’s gravity on the regulating organ, while its upper bridge proudly carries a blued small seconds hand that marks a fluid 60-second temporal matrix across the skeletal theater.

Manufacture Caliber 2160 Engine – Ultra-Thin Core with 22K Gold Peripheral Weight Module

Ensuring absolute precision and kinetic authority is the high-performance mechanical self-winding movement, Caliber 2160, calculated, constructed, and hand-decorated entirely within Vacheron Constantin’s foundry in Geneva. Composed of 188 individual components and 30 jewels, this elite engine operates at a traditional frequency of 18,000 vibrations per hour (2.5 Hz) with a remarkably thin movement profile of just 5.65 mm. The engineering breakthrough relies on an advanced peripheral rotor crafted from solid 22K gold, which winds the mainspring barrel along the external track of the mainplate rather than stacking above the bridges. This execution enables an unobstructed, panoramic view of the entirely hand-finished caliber architecture through the reverse sapphire window. Equipped with a high-capacity barrel, the movement supplies an exceptional power reserve of 80 hours (more than 3 full days of continuous rate stability), stamped with the supreme Poinçon de Genève certification as a guarantee of mechanical excellence and reliability.
