The Tribute to Great Civilisations watches have been created in collaboration between high-end watchmaker Vacheron Constantin and the Louvre Museum as a collection of historically inspired accessories.
The watches come in the form of Métiers d’Art model, which has been customized with a series of iconic masterpieces right on the dial. The timepieces are designed in four models which include the Sphinx of Egypt, the Victory of Hellenistic Greece statue, the bust of Octavian Augustus and the Lion relief sculpture originally from the Palace of Darius in the Persian Empire.
The Tribute to Great Civilisations watches are each powered by a self-winding Manufacture Calibre 2460 G4/2 movement and act as more of a work of art on the wrist.
