Specialist note
Vacheron Constantin, respected as the world's oldest watchmaker, celebrated its 250th anniversary in 2005. Their museum, which houses more than 400 rare and unique pieces, recreates a 1700's cabinotier's workshop, presents an insight into the long and illustrious history of Vacheron Constantin. Indeed, their wide spectrum of eminent clients ranging from Louis XIV to Napoleon reveals the popularity of this Genevan company over the centuries. Since the opening of its first boutique in 1906, Vacheron Constantin has grown in leaps and bounds. Today, it has a worldwide presence of twenty-three boutiques and sits under the auspices of the Richemont luxury group.
