Released at the Watches&Wonders 2020 event,the Les Cabinotiers Astronomical Grand Complication“Ode to Music”.
Is the latest chiming watch created by the highly specialized Ateliers Cabinotiers division.
This is a unique division of the Vacheron Constantin brand tasked with creating unique watches that showcase the brand’s superb craftsmanship and masterful artistry.
The new watch shares many similarities with the Les Cabinotiers Celestia Astronomical Grand Complication 3600–Vacheron Constantin’s most complex wristwatch,released in 2017.
This model is the most complex astronomical wristwatch ever created by Vacheron Constantin.
The new Ode to Music model retains its astronomical essence,but the tourbillon cage has been replaced with a chiming function along with a power reserve indicator and tide indicator.

Recreating Complex Function Watch Replicas Uk
The Ode to Music still has a module displaying astronomical functions,but in reality.
It has a different base movement than the Celestia.
While the Celestia has a base movement with a tourbillon cage and 6 mainspring barrels.
The Ode to Music uses the cal.1731 with a chiming function.
This movement has a larger diameter but is ultra-thin,only 3.9mm thick.
The Cal.1731M820 has a total of 600 components and is a hand-wound movement with a frequency of 3Hz and a power reserve of 60 hours thanks to a mainspring barrel.

Because the astronomical functions in both models are similar,the diameter of the new watch remains 45mm.
The rose gold case combined with the deep blue dial seems very fitting for the astronomical theme.
The Ode to Music watch replicas uk offers three time measurements:regular time,solar time,and astronomical time.
In addition to the gear dedicated to the chiming function.
The solar time indicator is located on the front,while the astronomical time indicator is on the back of the watch.

Regular time is displayed by Breguet hands,while solar time has a stylized hand with a sun-shaped tip;
Solar time is essentially a complex equation of time calculation function.
The equation of time requires a different gear system to create the movements of the sundial hand,with two sources of influence.
The first is the series of gears that operate the regular time.

Solar time shows the current time according to the Earth’s movement around the sun.
Which can vary from 24 hours/day to a deficit of-16 minutes to a surplus of+14 minutes depending on the annual cycle.
As is the case with most other watches with an equation of time function.
