The cushion-shaped, 18k pink gold "Harmony Dual Time" combines a second time zone with a day/night indication. The watch is one of the seven models of the so-called Harmony Collection, which was created to celebrate the 260-year anniversary of the Vacheron & Constantin company in 2015. It was produced in a limited edition of 625 pieces in pink or white gold.
The "Harmony Dual Time" handles very comfortably and is easy to read. All adjustments can be made through the crown and in both directions.
The cushion shape, the large blue Arabic numerals and the gold spade hands are typical of the classic, distinctive look of the Vacheron & Constantin models of the 1920s. The crystal case back reveals the magnificently embellished mechanical movement and its 22k pink gold rotor; the floral engraving is inspired by the oldest known model, created by Jean-Marc Vacheron in 1755. Like all other mechanical Vacheron & Constantin movements, the movement bears the Poinçon de Genève stamp. The corresponding certificate is part of the extensive set of accessories this watch comes with.
