VACHERON CONSTANTIN CONCOURS D’ÉLÉGANCE

Vacheron Constantin, in partnership with Phillips and Bacs & Russo, launches the world’s first "Concours d’Élégance Horlogère." This global competition mirrors the prestige of elite coastal automotive showcases like the Pebble Beach Concours, inviting collectors to display rare timepieces produced between 1755 and 1999.

A professional evaluation by a jury of historians and master watchmakers, offering recognition for provenance and preservation. It includes seven award categories, from "Chiming Mechanisms" to "Chronomètre Royal," specifically highlighting the brand's long-standing connection to marine precision and nautical navigation. For coastal enthusiasts who value the technical mastery of marine chronometers and the timeless elegance of seaside luxury, this competition validates the legacy of their finest assets. The event emphasizes the "emotional dimension" and technical impact of each watch on horological history.

Submissions open January 19, culminating in a prestigious trophy ceremony this November.
