This exceptional mechanical Swiss replica vacheron constantin atelier cabinotiers vladimir watch bearing the Hallmark of Geneva has a setting to match. The motifs and the bas-relief technique (which is extremely rare in watchmaking) used here were both done by request of the owner. In the end, the twelve figures – from the dragon through the rabbit and the rooster to the snake – were made to stand out slightly from the main body of 18-carat pink gold. The decision was then made to depict the signs of the zodiac on both sides of the case, which itself is made of 18-carat pink gold. In order to meet the challenge and create this extremely complex and unique timepiece, Atelier Cabinotiers called on more than 20 experts and craftsmen. It was a colossal task for the engravers – the twelve figures alone took more than six months – and required that a very special case first had to be made with extra-thick sides, from which the superfluous material was removed, carving roughly at first and then in very fine detail. It was a Herculean effort for a watch that deserves to join the legendary ranks of exceptional watchmaking. The Vladimir’s case is itself a work of art, epitomising the legendary expertise and nimble fingers of Atelier Cabinotiers’ artistic craftsmen. On the sides of this unique and imposing piece, which is 47 mm in diameter, the signs of the Chinese zodiac appear in bas-relief. As with every other timepiece from Vacheron Constantin’s workshop, the case was then polished very subtly, a task made all the more difficult by the fact that it absolutely must not destroy the engraver’s incredible work on the bas-reliefs. Before getting to the heart of the matter with regard to the subject and materials, the designers showed the purchaser many sketches.
