Born of technical excellence wedded to expert design, Vacheron
Constantin's Malte chronograph carries on the company's finest
chronographic traditions of topflight quality and understated styling.
It features a hand-wound mechanical chronograph movement with
traditional column-wheel construction and elaborately decorated parts,
along with an arresting engine-turned dial.<br><br>Designed to time,
record and display given spans of time, the chronograph stands in many
ways as the quintessential depositor of the spirit of horology.
Instrument watch par excellence, it was gradually developed during the
19th century at the urging of scientific and engineering circles,
industrialists and even sportsmen lamenting the lack of an accurate
and practical way of determining the duration of all sorts of
phenomena, processes and performances.<br><br>Watchmakers finally came
up with satisfactory solutions, inventing a variety of new components
and ingenious devices in the process. From the moment it appeared, the
chronograph has been continually perfected and upgraded, becoming ever
easier to use and ever more capable.<br><br>Vacheron Constantin lost
no time coming up with its own chronograph designs and, by the early
years of the 20th century, its designs were reputed for their
reliability and good looks.<br><br>As watches migrated from pocket to
wrist, Vacheron Constantin forged ahead, coming out with its first two-
push-piece chronographs during the nineteen thirties. This
construction markedly improved performance, enabling two successive
times to be captured without having to reset the chronograph to zero,
unavoidable with single push-piece models in the pocket-watch style,
i.e. with the push-piece fitted in the winding crown
axis.<br><br>Chronographs soon graduated from simply measuring the
time a given event took, to precisely determining the duration of
particular phenomena, read by the chronograph seconds hand off a
variety of specifically calibrated scales on the dial  tachymetric,
telemetric, pulsometric and even productometric. Over the years,
Vacheron Constantin has naturally designed and launched a variety of
chronograph designs, some featuring one or more scales of this kind.
The hand-wound Malte Collection chronograph, features a telemetric
scale along with the more usual tachymetric graduations.<br><br>In a
clear salute to tradition, Vacheron Constantin watchmakers chose a
hand-wound mechanical movement for their Malte Collection chronograph:
the legendary calibre 1141, a tried and tested design with an
impeccable technical record, not least because of its fine, dependably
efficient column-wheel construction.<br><br>In the style of many an
earlier model, the new Malte chronograph features a 30-minute
totalizer and a sub-dial for the running seconds positioned on the 3-
to-9-oclock axis, along with a center chronograph seconds
hand.<br><br>Every watch movement by Vacheron Constantin is finished
like a piece of jewelry, and the calibre 1141 movement is no
exception. A clear sapphire case back provides a fascinating look at
its complex construction and magnificent finish. Along with 'ctes de
Genve' decorative ribbing and the circular graining of appropriate
areas, the sides of its parts and components are 'stroked' by hand
with a file to create delicate parallel lines. Steel parts are
chamfered by hand and their chamfer polished; flat screw heads are
also meticulously polished. In keeping with solid, long-established
traditions, these and many other craft techniques are regularly put to
good use today still in Vacheron Constantin
workshops.<br><br>Traditional expertise and technical virtuosity also
come together on the Malte chronograph's dial face, a true if discreet
work of art in its own right. Made from a sheet of silver-finished 18K
gold, its center is painstakingly engine-turned by hand. The neat,
crisp layout of its various features  hour circle with minute and
second divisions, telemetric scale based on one 30-minute totalizer
and sub-dial for the running seconds  results in comfortable,
immediate legibility. Along with two 18K gold and three-blued steel
hands or pointers, the dial features six round hour markers and six
Arabic numerals in 18K gold, all protected by glare proof sapphire
crystal.<br><br>In 18K white rose gold, the case embodies to
perfection the Malte Collection's assertive personality. Its generous
size and finely balanced proportions, 'fan-shaped' bracelet lugs and
round push-pieces, crown featuring a version of the corporate 'Maltese
cross' symbol and pair of 'sword blade'-shaped hands all compose an
undeniably contemporary composition, yet one that will in time come to
be admired as a classic Haute Horlogerie design.
