Overview
The openface tourbillon in its standard dress
The Vacheron Constantin Traditionnelle Tourbillon Retrograde Date Openface, reference 6010T/000R-B638, in 18K pink gold with a slate-grey NAC-treated openface dial, on a grey alligator strap. Self-winding calibre 2162 R31 with tourbillon and retrograde date; 41 mm, 11.07 mm high, certified to the Hallmark of Geneva.
The reference 6010T/000R-B638 is Vacheron Constantin's Traditionnelle Tourbillon Retrograde Date Openface in 18K pink gold, 41 mm across and 11.07 mm high, with the collection's stepped lugs, slim bezel and fluted case back. The openface dial is built in three parts: a sapphire crystal carrying an 18K gold hand-guillochéd segment in a slate-grey shade across the upper section, an 18K gold tourbillon seconds ring, and a slate-grey opaline flange around the outside. A blackened 18K gold hand with a white arrow shows a retrograde date, dauphine hands and applied hour-markers are 18K gold, and small seconds sit on the tourbillon carriage; it is worn on a grey alligator leather strap with an 18K pink gold triple folding clasp.
The self-winding calibre 2162 R31 drives the tourbillon and retrograde date; the brand describes its slate-grey tone as an NAC surface treatment, visible through both the dial and the sapphire case back. The movement measures 31 mm across and 5.65 mm high, with 242 parts and 30 jewels, running at 18,000 V.P.H. (2.5 Hz) for a stated 72-hour power reserve. The watch is certified to the Hallmark of Geneva, which the brand dates to 1886 as the Republic and Canton of Geneva's own standard, now read as a mark of origin, craftsmanship and reliability.
For collectors
This reference carries the plain calibre 2162 R31, without the anniversary-suffixed calibre of the platinum piece in the same case dimensions -- the movement's NAC grey finish and the absence of an anniversary dial pattern are the visible difference between the two.
