About this product
Product Information
This sumptuous book brings to life the rich past and the landmark creations of one of the world's great watchmakers. Founded in the Swiss city of Geneva in 1755 by the gifted craftsman and businessman Jean-Marc Vacheron, Vacheron Constantin is the oldest watch manufacturer in the world with an uninterrupted history. Its phenomenal rise to an international reputation of the highest standing in turn throws light on the global success of the great Swiss watchmaking tradition. The book traces the principal milestones in the company's history: its founding during the Age of Enlightenment; the successive generations of the Vacheron family; the association in 1819 with Fran ois Constantin, who opened up the North American market to the company; the transformational relationship with the inventor Georges-Auguste Leschot; and the company's subsequent international recognition and expansion. Through an array of glorious illustrations, it presents Vacheron Constantin's historical collections, while highlighting the creations of the craftsmen who contribute to the technical excellence of its timepieces--the master-watchmakers--and the artisans who transform them into genuine objets d'art-- the master engravers, guillocheurs , jewelers and enamelers.

I did not receive this item BUT before I had reason to become concerned this seller contacted me to tell me that they had not yet received tracking information from their supplier so they were issuing me a full refund. They asked that I contact them if I should receive the item later. The refund was done immediately. Wow!!! Great people! That kind of customer care is very, very rare these days~taking care of an issue before a complaint was even made!!! I HIGHLY recommend this seller!!
