Vacheron Constantin: Artists of Time
Franco Cologni and Bruno Ehrs
Geneva-based Vacheron Constantin has maintained its reputation for producing exceptional timepieces, from its first watch circa 1760 to its extraordinary mechanical watches of today. Highly collectible, these prestigious timepieces are conceived as much to seduce by their elegance as to provide precision timekeeping. With specially commissioned photographs, the book traces the rich history of the manufacture and includes an informative catalog of timepieces and a guide to the watchmaker’s art. An unwavering commitment to excellence is the firm’s hallmark; the heritage of 260 years of unique artistic and technical expertise.
Franco Cologni is chairman of the Cultural Council of the Fondation de la Haute Horlogerie. He has contributed to numerous works on jewelry and the history of the clock industry with Flammarion including The Mastery of Time (2012), The Cartier Collection: Precious Objects (2012), The Cartier Collection: Timepieces (2006), Cartier: The Tank Watch: Timeless Style (2012), Writing Time: Montblanc (2011), Cartier: The Tank Watch (1998), Jaeger LeCoultre (2006), The Secrets of Vacheron Constantin: 250 Years of History (2005).
