On Tuesday September 11^th 2018, Abbey Road Studios hosted Vacheron Constantin’s guests for the launch of the Fiftysix® collection. An exclusive performance by English singer-songwriter Benjamin Clementine provided a musical narrative for the launch of the partnership between the Maison and the legendary recording studio, as well as tunefully accompanying the presentation of the first Fiftysix® to feature a major horological complication: an ultra-thin automatic tourbillon model.

Benjamin Clementine, who fronts the new Vacheron Constantin communication campaign, treated the privileged 150 guests to a memorable acoustic showcase. Seated at his piano and backed by five strings, he notably gave a first ever performance of the song Eternity, the first exclusive composition produced by the new creative venture between Vacheron Constantin and Abbey Road Studios.

Highlighting a watch event that drew more than 100 international journalists, the evening and the concert chimed perfectly with the new signature of the Maison: “One of not many”.

Over three days, guests had the opportunity to immerse themselves in the Fiftysix® world by taking part in a variety of creative and trending activities, including a bartitsu masterclass, vinyl hunting in Soho or a chance to explore the photoshoot locations of Pink Floyd or David Bowie’s most famous album covers.

This set of experiences was rounded o by a cosy and resolutely London-style soirée held at the highly exclusive Mayfair private club, Loulou’s.

The new Fiftysix Collection has been released Sept 1^st worldwide and is available in Vacheron Constantin boutiques as well as across the Maisons’s authorized distributors network.
