The Watch: Vacheron Constantin is the oldest continuously operating watch manufacture in the world, founded in Geneva in 1755. The FiftySix collection, launched at SIHH 2018, takes its inspiration from reference 6073, a watch the brand released in 1956 with a case design that introduced lugs shaped to evoke the Maltese cross of the Vacheron logo. The modern FiftySix preserves that lug geometry, adds a box-shaped sapphire crystal for vintage warmth, and updates the proportions for a 40mm case.
Reference 4600E/110A-B487 is the steel-on-bracelet version with the petrol blue dial. The dial is a double-finished construction: opaline at the center transitioning to satin sunburst at the periphery, with applied 18k gold Arabic numerals and stick markers and 18k gold baton hands filled with blue Super-LumiNova. The date sits at 3 o'clock. The brand introduced this bracelet variant in 2019, and the bracelet uses Vacheron's micro-adjustment system that allows up to 4mm of wrist circumference adjustment without tools.
The caliber 1326 is automatic, COSC certified, with a 22k gold oscillating weight inspired by the Maltese cross. The movement runs at 28,800 vph with a 48-hour power reserve and is visible through the sapphire caseback. Hallmark of Geneva certification across the movement.
