Lovely, and twenty thousand dollars
By Hannah Lindqvist, Stockholm ·
The price is what I keep tripping on. 21,000 to 23,000 dollars, in steel.
The case is the right size: 35 mm, 9.6 mm, 17 mm lugs. Caliber 1088, 40 hours, display back. 30 m. The Égérie is Vacheron's collection for women and it's prettier than it needs to be, without diamonds everywhere, which I appreciate.
But if you're buying Vacheron you're buying a house that's been in Geneva since 1755, and nobody buys this for value. I'd wear it maybe twice a year. Cost per wear would be horrendous.
For someone who wants Vacheron finishing in a feminine design and has the money to not think about it. Not for anyone who'd feel bad leaving it in the safe.
