Vacheron Constantin Malte Platinum 100th Anniversary Edition

As I mentioned in my opening preview of the 2012 Vacheron Constantin collection, 2012 is the 100th anniversary of the brand’s first tonneau-shaped watch (1912), and to mark the occasion Vacheron Constantin has decided to present the Malte 100th Anniversary Edition model, a hand-wound watch issued in a 100-piece limited series in a platinum case.  This piece of course is molded in the redesigned Malte tonneau case, with a more curved middle section than the previous model — the side and front-angle photos below give a really good sense of the more dramatic shape of the new Malte case.
