This signature 42.5mm timepiece sports a rare combination of retrograde hand-type day and date display with hour markers and hands following the gentle curve of the dial. The pink gold case complements the luxurious dark brown alligator leather strap that is accompanied by a polished pink gold clasp. These subtle design details all seamlessly work together to create a contemporary classic while also giving the nod to the past design DNA of Vacheron Constantin.
