“Establishing a partnership with the prestigious Metropolitan Museum of Art allows us to underscore our shared vocation for the transmission of knowledge and the preservation of the arts,”<\/em> says Louis Ferla<\/strong>, CEO of Vacheron Constantin, in a press release. “Vacheron Constantin’s commitment to art and culture has always been an inexhaustible source of inspiration, permeating our freedom to create and express beauty in all our watches. The company’s links with the United States and New York go back more than two centuries, with many of our finest creations having been made for American collectors and clients, such as the iconic American 1921. This partnership with the Met confirms our cultural and artistic attachment to this country, as well as our concern to preserve its savoir-faire”.<\/em><\/p>\n

This new collaboration continues Vacheron Constantin’s commitment to the Louvre in Paris<\/strong>. This partnership, which came into being in 2019<\/strong>, aimed to bring the world of fine watchmaking closer to that of fine art and history. Their association began in 2016 with the restoration of the La Cr\u00e9ation du Monde<\/strong> clock, an 18th-century masterpiece that belonged to the French king Louis XV.<\/p>\n
