Vacheron Malte Chronograph Dubail Edition
Please find below a few pics of the WG Malte Chronograph especially made for the famous AD in Paris, Dubail.
It is a LE of 30 watches.
The main feature of this watch is a more sportive design than the classic Malte chronograph: black dial, red hands... you will notice that the strap is in harmony with the dial colors. It is a strange combo, we are not very used to see this watch in such context.
I was a bit afraid at the beginning but at the end, this design brings something different to the Malte Chronograph and the combo hands & dial works quite well.
Of course, the caliber is still the Lemania 2320.
The number of the LE is engraved on the case side.

Not my cup of tea
An all black dial without this " Racing " Treatment would have been superb, IMO... With these touches of Red, I remember the old Peugeot 205 GTI which were tuned in a ridicluous way... A nice watch ruined by a vulgar design... SAD. Nicolas
I don't agree with you.
I was not very convinced when I saw the press release. But after having seen the watch "in metal", I was seduced by the finishing of the dial. Sure the Malte Chronograph is not the best context for such decoration but at the end, I think the result is qui...
I saw it too, FX
And half a dozen time... I even tried it, I couldn't believe it was so bad... A big deception, each time. But it is just not the idea I have of a Vacheron Watch, maybe... Best, Nicolas
and yet...
100x better than the average Dubail special edition, that would have required covering the case and strap and buckle and perhaps with diamonds A
Thank you for these photos...
Count me as someone who likes the watch. The red is a nice touch and reminds me of the series of Malte Tonneau chronograph watches that VC made for the North American market back in 2007, though that used a chocolate dial. Bill...
I find that I have to agree with Nicolas
The cause is truly lovely but the black and red dial is far too sporty for this watch and creates a real esthetic clash for me. Its tolerable in the OC, but only just. Even there I prefer the Japanese combination with the blue trim. Unfortunately here in ...
more like something...
you would see from AP or RM but a bit unusual for VC IMO.Haven't seen one in the metal so can't really judge.Like the first of your wrist shots FX and IMO it does look nice in a sporty way and would go well with something casual like a black leather jacke...
