Historical watchmaking innovation is resurrected in the Vacheron Constantin "Historiques"
collection, which features modern versions of unique watches from the company´s
history, spanning more than two millenniums. Since 2005, when the line was re-launched
as part of VC´s 250th Anniversary celebration, the company has
added a new watch per year to the "Historiques" collection. The Toledo
1952 is part of that collection, featuring a dial face that includes a sapphire
moon phase display, with an improved full-calendar movement. The Vacheron Constatin
Toledo 1952 is distinguished by its rectangular, but curved, case. Considered a
rare find, the VC company also manufactured the Toledo 1957, a round version of
the 1952 model.
The 21st Century adaptation of the Vacheron Constantin Toledo 1952 doesn´t
waiver much from its 1950´s predecessor. The case is the same size, 36x43
mm, though considered large at the time. The triple-date complication displays the
hours, minutes, small second, hand-type calendar, phases of the moon, day, date
and month, but is modernized to include automatic winding. The full-calendar movement
requires only once-a-year setting to allow for leap years. This most recent edition
of the classic watch is available in 18K white gold or 18K 5N pink gold, both with
alligator leather straps.
As was common in the 50s and 60s, the triple-date display has been recreated on
the Toledo 1952 with the classic blue moon phase, showing the waxing and waning
of the moon. The backdrop for the moon phase movement is pinstripe guilloche work,
an intricate engraving technique. Mechanically, the timepiece beats at 28,800 vibrations
per hour, thanks to the Vacheron Constantin original 36 jewel 1125/1225 self-winding
caliber movement. It has more than 40 hours of reserve power.
Every Vacheron Constantin timepiece is stamped with the prestigious Hallmark of
Geneva, and the Toledo 1952 is no exception. This certification is awarded only
to Genevan watchmakers that abide by strict guidelines for horological excellence.
Technical specifications must be met, including 12 specific criteria for ensuring
movement perfection. The VC company received its first certification as early as
1901. Tracing its roots back to 1755, the VC company was launched by a young watchmaker,
Jean-Marc Vacheron. Through the generations, VC expanded into overseas markets and
Francois Constantin was brought in to assist with those operations. Horological
innovations attributed to VC include the first winding crown, which replaced the
winding key, and the invention of a machine capable of mass producing small watch
parts and dials.
