Ora ïto runs rings around a Vacheron Constantin limited-edition watch

Gold watch.

For Vacheron Constantin, a watch brand that epitomises a ‘classic with a twist’ aesthetic, a collaboration with French designer Ora ïto (aka Ito Morabito) felt like a natural step. Celebrated for his distinctive signature style, dubbed ‘Simplexity’, Ora ïto emphasises the art of making complicated things easy. It is a philosophy shared by Vacheron Constantin, which continues to champion a clean minimalism with its first co-creation with the designer, the Patrimony watch.

Making its original debut in 2004, the Patrimony has traditionally indulged in a geometric play with juxtapositions of curves and angles, a history built on here in this new collaboration, with the hypnotic pattern of concentric circles on the curved dial. The signature monochrome dial is rethought in a deep gold tone, giving this 100-piece limited edition a vintage nod.
