Overview
A tapestry dial and moon phase for the Égérie line
The Vacheron Constantin Égérie Moon Phase, reference 8005F/000R-H157, a limited edition of 100 pieces in 18K pink gold with a pink mother-of-pearl tapestry dial, on a hand-painted pink calfskin strap. Self-winding calibre 1088 L with moon phase and central seconds; 37 mm, 10.23 mm high, with two further straps included.
This execution is a limited edition of 100 pieces, per this record's own text, in the same 18K pink gold case and calibre 1088 L movement. The dial is pink mother-of-pearl rather than opaline silvered, with lilac mother-of-pearl clouds around the moon phase, and it comes on a pink calfskin leather strap rather than an alligator strap, with a hand-painted calfskin strap among the two further straps supplied -- the brand notes this makes each example unique.
Vacheron Constantin's Égérie Moon Phase is offered across this family in 18K pink gold or stainless steel. The dial centre carries a pleated pattern the brand produces with what it calls its tapestry technique, in a shade that varies by execution, with an off-centred moon-phase display ringed by 36 round-cut diamonds (approximately 0.1 carats) in front of mother-of-pearl clouds. A further 58 round-cut diamonds are set through the case, and the crown carries a moonstone. The case measures 37 mm across and 10.23 mm high, water-resistant to 30 m, with a transparent sapphire case back.
The movement is the self-winding calibre 1088 L: 30 mm across, 5.03 mm high, 164 parts and 24 jewels, running at 28,800 V.P.H. (4 Hz) for a stated 40-hour power reserve, driving hours, minutes, central seconds, the moon phase and a balance-stop function. Depending on the execution, the watch is worn on a leather strap, with two further straps supplied for changing between them, or on a matching bracelet closed with a triple folding clasp; the Ardillon buckle and triple folding clasp are each made in the case's own metal.
For collectors
The five references built on this case and calibre differ mainly in dial colour, case metal and whether the watch is fitted with a strap or a matching bracelet -- the movement, case size and diamond-set ring around the moon phase are identical across all of them, worth knowing when comparing within the family.
