New collection excellence platine model?
It seems there is a new CEP model, the patrimony retrograde date and moonphase. The only source I see is hodinkee which has posted pictures. Not on VC site. I actually like the RG version of this watch as can adjust functions via crown, just wish 2mm smaller watch and longer power reserve.
The price in the article seem wrong, from the article "While the existing Patrimony Moon Phase Retrograde Date versions (those being in white or rose gold) retail for $55,000, each of the fifty platinum pieces being added to the Collection Excellence Platine will sell via VC boutiques for $67,000." While that may be the price for CEP the RG and WG version are listed as $40,100 on the VC website. I believe usually 20 percent increase for these editions?

...according to the Hodinkee article, '...even features strap stitching using thread in both platinum and silk.' Seriously? I know VC has done this before, but it's just pure gimmickry and wholly unnecessary in a manufacturer with their history. And if yo...

As most of you may know I’m pretty much a VC addict. However I must admit the Patrimony never clicked with me. It’s to big and the slightly domed crystal makes it look like a flying sourcer or really fifties. Fortunately for me they have so many other gor...
