Focus on the Egérie Self-winding

The Égérie Self-Winding Collection belongs to the elegant Egérie collection, which combines haute horlogerie with the sophistication and refinement of haute couture. Named after the goddess Egeria, a famous nymph in Roman mythology, this timepiece draws inspiration from powerful women of the past as well as contemporary muses who inspire artists and designers. These elements evoke a classic feel, both slim and graceful, yet with daring and mischievous overtones. A pleated effect on the dial is reminiscent of fine fabrics, while an off-centered aesthetic provides the asymmetry that is integral to the history of Vacheron Constantin. The 35mm case comes in pink gold or stainless steel, each set with diamonds, and with an open sapphire crystal back that showcases hand-crafted Côtes de Genève finishing and a 22K gold oscillating weight. It is equipped with an interchangeable strap/bracelet system enabling the wearer to swap wristbands without the use of a tool. The variety and inherent versatility of this timepiece make it a perfect daily companion for a bold touch to any outfit. The other models in the collection include the Égérie moon phase in 18K 5N pink gold or stainless steel, and the Égérie moon phase diamond-pavé version in 18K white gold with a 37mm case.
