About Vacheron Constantin

Welcome to the comprehensive Vacheron Constantin guide. Since 1755 – for 270 years without a single interruption – this Geneva manufacture has been producing watches at the highest level. Vacheron Constantin is the oldest continuously producing watch manufacture in the world and member of the "Holy Trinity" of watchmaking (together with Patek Philippe and Audemars Piguet).

The philosophy of Vacheron Constantin: "Faire mieux si possible, ce qui est toujours possible" (Do better if possible, which is always possible). This uncompromising attitude is reflected in every detail – from the hand-decorated movement with Côtes de Genève to the artisanal Métiers d'Art dials to the prestigious Geneva Seal.

From Napoleon to King Fouad of Egypt to modern watch lovers – VC watches have adorned the wrists of kings, aristocrats and connoisseurs. Discover what makes this manufacture so special and why Vacheron Constantin is among the most prestigious watch brands in the world.
