Vacheron Constantin, a Swiss luxury watch and clock manufacturer, has announced its support towards local rising talents through the sponsorship of
Fashion Trust Arabia, 2021.
For over 266 years the maison has thrived through the never-ending quest for excellence and craftsmanship. To support the artists of today and bring
their work to life, Vacheron Constantin will sell an Égérie Moon Phase timepiece and proceeds will be donated to the Fashion Trust Arabia fund prize.
Vacheron Constantin Égérie Moon Phase Timepiece Égérie was born through the encounter of two worlds, Haute Horlogerie and Haute Couture,
through the prism of craftsmanship, precision, excellence, and beauty.
No less than 36 round-cut diamonds surround the moon and are perfectly combined with the dial, thanks to the tapestry technique, its motif recalls the delicate pleating of an Haute Couture fabric. This 18K 5N pink gold watch is set with 58 round-cut diamonds and a cabochon moonstone between 1
and 2 o’clock.
Christophe Ramel, Vacheron Constantin Regional Brand Director for the Middle East, commented: “We are proud to be supporting up-and-coming
fashion designers and creativity in the region as we believe in the artists of the time, the ones with talents no machine could ever replace. We wish all
participants the best of luck in shining on a greater global scale.”
Fashion Trust Arabia is a non-profit initiative launched in 2018 under the patronage of HH Sheikha Moza Bint Nasser as honorary chair, with co-chairs
Sheikha Al-Mayassa bint Hamad Al-Thani and Tania Fares.
It was initially conceived as a prize to support up-and-coming and established fashion designers in the region, an initiative that has been highly successful in its three years of existence.
Founded in 1755, Vacheron Constantin is the world’s oldest watch manufacture in continuous production for over 265 years, faithfully perpetuating a
proud heritage of watchmaking excellence and stylistic sophistication through generations of master craftsmen.
At the pinnacle of Haute Horlogerie and understated elegance, the maison creates timepieces with unique technical and aesthetic signatures, and an
extremely high level of finishing touches.
Vacheron Constantin brings to life unparalleled heritage and a spirit of innovation through its collections: Patrimony, Traditionnelle, Métiers d’Art,
Overseas, Fiftysix, Historiques and Égérie. It also offers its discerning clientele of connoisseurs the rare opportunity to acquire unique and bespoke timepieces by means of its “Les Cabinotiers" department. -
