A 37 time zones world timer ? Yes, Vacheron Constantin did it !

The only one I've handled in real life is the 2015 rose gold and I really loved the dial. The case of the Traditionnelle, though, is pretty chunky.

Here are all the variants I could find in both in the Traditionnelle and Overseas collections.

Enjoy!

About the Vacheron Constantin Patrimony Contemporaine Ref. 86060

The reference 86060 represents Vacheron Constantin's Patrimony Contemporaine in a larger case format. This model sits within the Contemporaine series, offering the traditional Patrimony aesthetic in contemporary proportions.

The 42mm case is crafted from 18k rose gold and features a fixed bezel configuration. The silver dial is protected by sapphire crystal, while an automatic movement powers the timepiece. Water resistance extends to 30 meters, reflecting its dress watch orientation.

This reference appeals to collectors seeking a modern interpretation of classical watchmaking principles in precious metal. The 42mm case size positions it for those preferring larger proportions within the Patrimony collection, while the rose gold case material and silver dial combination provides a refined aesthetic suitable for formal wear.

The Traditionelle WT Platinum Blue dial for me, followed by the Mecca.

I think I would stick to the 2015 rose gold, the only one I've seen in real life

and the dial looked great. I also like the grey dial Overseas.
