Vacheron Constantin has recently unveiled the first watch in the Overseas collection featuring a minute repeater function, model 6510V/110T-128C, marking a dual breakthrough in the brand’s technology and design. This new piece boasts a five-grade titanium case with a diameter of 44.5mm and a thickness of 13.1mm, preserving the collection’s signature slender lines while maintaining approximately 30 meters of water resistance. It houses the in-house developed 2755 QP manual-winding movement, combining a minute repeater, perpetual calendar, tourbillon, and power reserve display, all within a mere thickness of 7.9mm, constructed from 602 components, and offers about 58 hours of power reserve, certified by the Geneva Seal.
Beneath the intricately carved sapphire crystal watch face, a gray NAC electroplated bridge intertwines with a silver rhodium wheel system, creating an avant-garde visual effect. The 18K white gold hands and hour markers are coated with blue Super-Luminova® luminescent paint, enhancing readability in low light. The unique time regulator design utilizes a concentric device to control the striking rhythm in silence, while the fixed arched lever, crafted from 18K gold and engraved with the initials of brand founder Jean-Marc Vacheron, adds a touch of collectible significance. The tourbillon operates at a frequency of 2.5 Hz, and the bridge exhibits exquisite craftsmanship with chamfered edges and satin-finish techniques that showcase supreme artisanal aesthetics. Each watch comes with a five-grade titanium folding clasp and interchangeable blue alligator leather and rubber straps, allowing for effortless switch-up of your style without the need for tools.
The bezel combines sandblasted, polished, and brushed finishes, exuding a strong modern sporty vibe. Vacheron Constantin has a rich heritage in intricate design; this new piece not only pays homage to past classics but also pushes the boundaries of watchmaking technology, showcasing the brand’s exceptional mastery in high-end horology.
