Got to see the new Vacheron releases

[raclaims]

I mean we all know how good they look in the pix but in the metal wow even better

1. 222 in yellow gold - I really expected to not like this one. For one I don’t own any yellow gold pieces and two it’s 37mm. Boy was I off base. The bracelet is just phenomenal and so ridiculously comfy. The 37mm feels right at home on my wrist (almost 8 inch wrist) because of the large footprint of the bracelet etc It just feels super elegant

2. The titanium and rose tourbillon skeletons are bonkers. The titanium is quite light on the wrist but didn’t feel like a toy as some others do in titanium. The finishing is stellar and def a killer piece. The rose is so heavy in comparison but not in a bad way. Just different execution of a fantastic piece

3. The salmon dialed perpetual calendar chrono in the Traditionnelle line also took me by surprise. Normally I do not like salmon but again this just nails it. The platinum case and manual wind is a massive winner

4. The new updated skeleton perpetual calendar in rose now with blue highlights- let’s just say I changed my order from the white highlights to this one

What a group of amazing pieces. They just killed it

Pix to follow

Thanks for the in person experience notes. I was blown away by all the releases as well in pics/videos especially thought the 222 was an absolute home run glad to see it lived up to that in person.

Did you take all of them home with you right away, or are they just going to give them to you one per month?

Ha!!! If they just gave them to me I’d be happy to wait a month each. For some reason they ask for payment which is befuddling

Thumbs down. I thought they took care of you. Seems they have their hand in your pockets.

What a great looking event! Was this at the NY boutique?

[Jerrocop]

Very nice. Really like the 222. I'm generally not a fan of skeleton watches and although VC makes a beautiful watch this one doesn't convert me.

[Jmaguire17]

What did you think about the finishing, weight, etc of the skeleton tourbillon titanium vs the Odysseus titanium?

[JF100]

222 looks incredible on your wrist. Bit surprising i thought it would look smaller.

Waittttt a minute…what about those legendary ‘good looks’ we have heard so much about?!? Can’t believe they have stopped working and money won again.

Thanks for those pictures by the way. Can’t wait for the incomings…Everything VC touches (or retouches) is turning to gold. Figuratively and literally.

Great looking watches.

[JayHantz]

Looks like an amazing event, my favorite is still the QP, and the skeleton dial is stunning. That 222 takes a very close second place…I think they really did well with the “re-issue” and it pays so much homage to the original.

Thank you for sharing!!!

It’s quite the disappointment

So it was quite impressive overall

The Odysseus is lighter but the finishing of the bracelet on the Odysseus was more one of contrasting polish to dark finish - FWIW in the end I’m getting the vacheron and not the Lange

Maybe they are seeing too much of a good thing ??? I suppose when you see brilliance regularly you lose the perspective of just how gorgeous he really is?? Nah can’t be that. I transcend the norm

I wish these guys would straighten up when it comes to the moon phase on their perpetual calendar. A smiley face moon? Good grief. Great pictures. Thank you.

[DoricSpiker]

Gold 222 looks the pic of the bunch to me. Outstanding. Thanks for the pics .
