Deeply rooted in symbolism, ancient Chinese culture finds new expression in Vacheron Constantin’s limited-edition Métiers d’Art—Tribute to Traditional Symbols collection.

Crafted in collaboration with Mr. Song, former Associate Research Librarian at the Palace Museum in Beijing’s Forbidden City, this series is an amalgamation of artistry and history, offering a window into the grandeur of the Ming and Qing dynasties.

Central to the collection is the “Seawater Cliff” motif gracing the dials, a symbol once featured prominently in imperial decor and ceremonial dragon robes. This image of waves crashing against cliffs evokes the power, resilience, and stability of the emperor’s reign, translating centuries of tradition into exquisite horological art.
