Vacheron Constantin Watches

Vacheron Constantin founderThis company is one of the oldestVacheron Constantin manufactory watch manufactory. The ruling in Geneva, XVI-XVII factory company Vacheron Constantin's hard work, successful business in every way and fought with the luxury of leaving the lovers of beautiful things only loophole - to create luxury Swiss watches. Therefore, out of 20 000 people who lived in Geneva in the middle of the XVIII century, about a quarter were employed in watchmaking. Of these, 800 were watchmaker, that is, the owners of shops and the owners of the nominal brand is put on the dials and movements. One of them was a young engineer, Jean-Marc Vacheron.
In 1755, the hearth of a 24 year old Jean-Marc, to inherit his father's shop, he immediately took the bank's 1,000 pounds of silver. He made a very good agreement with the Geneva watch factory, according to which the workshop was to deliver Vacheron a few dozen complex watch movements. Within ten years the company has paid all loans, and in thirty years has launched its own watchmaking under the family name.
Second half of its brand name acquired by François Constantin, who helped when Vacheron fell into crisis during the monarchy. Francois was an experienced trader and explorer. His idea of selling watches and their public relations were so good and interesting, that Constantine became a partner in the firm and April 1, 1819 it was renamed the Vacheron Constantin.
Brand's Maltese Cross appeared on the watch Vacheron Constantin in 1880. However, it has appeared much earlier in watches and the Maltese cross has little to do. Part, called the Maltese cross, used in machinery since the XVII century and was directly connected to a spring, transforming the uniform rotary motion into intermittent - a detail the process of assembling watches Vacheron Constantinne gave to have a watch too much, and secondly, forced the spring to unwind with a more uniform force. The name "Maltese Cross", this piece has only a superficial resemblance to movement of Vacheron Constantin watches.
