Vacheron Constantin opens its first standalone boutique in Malaysia
Founded in 1755, Vacheron Constantin is one of the oldest surviving watch brands in the world. With such a rich legacy, it is also one of the most coveted and admired among connoisseurs; its name alone is a hallmark of horological excellence.
Now the prestigious Swiss brand has opened its first standalone boutique in Malaysia, located in the Pavilion Kuala Lumpur. A real treat for its fans as well as aspiring collectors, the 100 sq m boutique welcomes visitors with a facade inspired by the manufacture’s Maltese cross emblem and a luxuriously appointed interior of warm wood and marble.
If you're a fan of fine watchmaking, there's plenty to discover here. The boutique houses a complete collection of its watches, from the classic Patrimony and the contemporary classic Overseas to the technically sophisticated Traditionnelle honouring haute horlogerie traditions from the 18th century and the Égérie, a mechanical collection dedicated to the ladies.
Promising an immersive experience, the boutique offers a strap customisation service besides being the venue of choice for hosting heritage exhibitions. You can also look forward to an annual rotation of Les Collectionneurs' selection of vintage watches and Les Cabinotiers' one-of-kind creations that showcase the manufacture’s incredible wealth of creative and technical expertise.
Meantime, here are some of the new timepieces that you can now discover at the boutique.

This three-hand feminine model is minimalism at its finest. Although simple in appearance, it boasts lavish details—think white or pink gold case, leaf-shaped hands, and a date counter at 6 o’clock painstakingly designed to complement the gradient colour effect of the dial. There are four references: white gold case set with or without diamonds with deep blue dial, and pink gold case set with or without diamonds with blush pink dial.

The latest Égérie adorns its distinctive dial with the ‘pleats’ patterns inspired by haute couture with the colour taupe, which is a first for the collection. The bezel is set with 58 round-cut diamonds with a crown, positioned at 2 o'clock, topped with moonstone. The moon phase counter is also set with round-cut diamonds, delivering unparalleled sparkle against the sombre taupe.
There's also a version with a date indicator in place of a moon phase.
