Watch Description

Heir to a model from 1956, this steel watch features a precision moon phase that is accurate over 122 years. This poetic complication is finished with day, date, and month displays. Embellished with blue, the date hand and the moon phase disc contrast elegantly with the silver-toned dial. Its openworked caseback reveals an elevated oscillating weight in 22K gold, inspired by the Maltese cross.

### Overall Watch Rating: 8.9/10.0

 

#### Breakdown by Watch Metrics:

- **Brand (11.1% Weight): 9.5/10**

Vacheron Constantin is among the most prestigious watch brands, with over two centuries of history and craftsmanship. The Fiftysix collection represents a modern approach while maintaining Vacheron Constantin's storied legacy.

 

- **History & Innovation (11.1% Weight): 9.2/10**

The Fiftysix Complete Calendar is a nod to classic Swiss horology, with a modern interpretation of traditional calendar complications. Vacheron Constantin continues to balance tradition with technical advancements.

 

- **Rarity (11.1% Weight): 8.7/10**

While not a limited edition, the Fiftysix Complete Calendar is produced in relatively low quantities, contributing to its exclusivity. It is less commonly seen, adding to its collectability within its category.

 

- **Material (11.1% Weight): 8.8/10**

The stainless steel case offers durability and versatility. Although it lacks the prestige of precious metals, the high-quality finish is meticulously executed, maintaining the elegance expected from Vacheron Constantin.

 

- **Movement (11.1% Weight): 9.0/10**

The watch is powered by Vacheron Constantin's in-house automatic caliber 2460 QCL/1, featuring a complete calendar and moonphase complication. It offers reliable performance and displays the brand's high level of movement craftsmanship.

 

- **Complications (11.1% Weight): 9.1/10**

Featuring a complete calendar with day, date, month, and a moonphase, this watch is functionally rich. The combination of complications adds to both the practical and visual appeal of the timepiece.

 

- **Functions (11.1% Weight): 8.8/10**

The Fiftysix Complete Calendar offers useful complications but lacks high-level water resistance (30 meters), which limits its utility outside of formal or everyday settings. The moonphase and calendar functions are valuable for day-to-day use.

 

- **Versatility (11.1% Weight): 8.5/10**

This watch is versatile within formal and casual settings but is not designed for active wear. It balances a refined style that can be dressed up or down, though it leans more toward formal occasions.

 

- **Dials & Design (11.1% Weight): 9.2/10**

The dial features a sector design with opaline and sunburst finishes, offering excellent craftsmanship and legibility. The moonphase and calendar functions are well integrated into the dial's aesthetic.

 

- **Cohesiveness (11.1% Weight): 8.8/10**

The watch maintains a consistent design language with the Fiftysix collection, blending contemporary elements with traditional watchmaking. The design is harmonious and well-executed.
