Vacheron Constantin Opens Boutique in Beverly Hills

It is currently under construction and is situated across the street from the Rolex and Patek boutiques.

This is great news. Vacheron is a great manufacture.

Very cool. I'd love to check it out if I get over that way again. I'd also like to stop by the Breguet boutique too. Lots of good stuff to see in Beverley Hills!

That is turning into (not that it wasn't to begin with I suppose) an amazing watch corner!

I don't get how they can make decent profit selling at MSRP with double the overhead of other locations.

I doubt they actually turn a profit at that location, but it is great advertising. Although you never know, there is plenty of walk-in money in that town!

When completed, a photo of the store (and maybe any window display) would be most welcome.

One of the most famous shopping streets in the world. Typically, they have sales staff fluent in, for example, Chinese and Japanese.

The picture getting a little clearer?
