The new RM19-02 watch regains the watchmaking traditions of the past and has given birth to Richard Mille’s modern watchmaking philosophy. This watch chose Magnolia as the design pattern because Magnolia is the only flower in the world that has survived for millions of years, and its history is even longer than that of bees. The opening and closing of Magnolia symbolizes the endless cycle and regeneration of endless life. The flowers are bright and clean, delicate and elegant, the structure is solid, and they have strong adaptability to harsh environments. Magnolia flowers are designed at 7 o’clock, and 5 hand-carved and drawn petals hold a flying tourbillon in the flower core. Pressing the button at 9 o’clock, Magnolia blooms slowly or regularly as required, and then gently lifts it, opening and closing, as if elegant ballet is dancing and harmonious.

In Geneva in 2014, Vacheron Constantin dazzled us with a series of skeleton watches. From the Master of Art series to Malta, he has been performing the openwork world that he sees. Some people say that if the new product is just a hollow design, then it seems to lack appeal. Exactly what the brand has added to it, let’s take a closer look. Official watch model: 82020 / 000G-9924.

Personally, compared to working on technology, the appearance of learning is actually greater. How can we make innovations year by year, and inherit the brand’s classic tradition? This is a headache for major brands. The Master of Arts series was originally a series of Vacheron Constantin’s pursuit of peaking in arts and crafts, so it seemed to become more difficult to climb another higher peak.

 This watch has a diameter of 40 mm and the case is made of 18K white gold. Although the biggest highlight of this watch is the hollowed out surface, the exquisitely crafted case is also blooming under the night sky. Light.

 The thickness of the watch is only 7.5 millimeters. The crown is also made of 18K white gold and is engraved with the iconic Vacheron Constantin logo.

 As mentioned above, the biggest highlight of this watch is on the surface of the dial. The biggest difference between Vacheron Constantin’s cut-out watch this year and the work launched in previous years is that Vacheron Constantin implemented the architectural concept of the watch into the carved design of the watch. , Different from the classical European style decorated with European decorative patterns, it has a more visual sense of balance and a more modern sense.

 The Métiers d’Art Mécaniques Ajourées watch even incorporates the technique of big fire enamel. It is decorated with different colors of enamel on the outside of the hour ring. There are three versions of blue, black and gray, and there are high-quality jewelry with bezel set with square diamonds. paragraph.

 The watch is equipped with a 4400SQ manual winding movement and has the Geneva Seal. The movement itself is 2.8 mm thick and 28.6 mm in diameter, providing a power reserve of 65 hours.

 The geometric structure of the building is widely used on each bridge bridge on the front and back of the movement, and the 3D three-dimensional effect created by deep V angle and geometric line carving makes the work have extremely bright light and shadow performance.

 The clockwork box incorporates Vacheron Constantin’s iconic Maltese logo. The partial full-cut method makes the clockwork in the clockwork box subtly become the best decorative pattern of the Maltese logo.

 The hollowed-out hour-marker ring also conveys the same structural aesthetic concept, which complements the enamel outer ring, and the visual hierarchy between the movement and the face plate is also quite harmonious.

Summary: In fact, the dial is the most eye-catching place for clocks and watches. Many of the skeletonized watches launched by Vacheron Constantin this year did not have much innovation in technology. Formal fusion. Whether it is enamel or sculpture, they all represent a superb art culture of human beings. Inheriting it with a clock as a carrier, I think it is still worthy of recognition.
