Launched in 2026, the Vacheron Constantin Métiers d'Art Tribute to Great Civilisations Buste d'Akhenaton 7620A/000G-H078 is one of four exclusive timepieces created in partnership with the Louvre, with only 15 pieces available. This remarkable watch features a 42 mm case made of white gold and showcases a dial that pays homage to the iconic sandstone bust of Pharaoh Akhenaten from Egypt's New Kingdom housed in the Louvre. The case measures 12.9 mm in thickness and is complemented by a transparent sapphire crystal back, allowing a view of its automatic movement, while the timepiece offers water resistance up to 30 meters.

At the heart of the dial lies a glyptic depiction of Akhenaten, meticulously carved from Sinai limestone sandstone, mirroring the original sculpture's material. Surrounding this central portrait is a cartouche, also crafted from the same stone and both elements exhibit hand-applied patina. The watch's decorative features encompass a turquoise outer ring adorned with drypoint engraving and an intricate inner composition of red mother-of-pearl, chrysoprase, opaline, and sodalite, all framed by 18K 3N gold threads. Innovative in design, the display of time and calendar functions is achieved through four apertures along the dial's edge, keeping the central artwork unhindered. Powering this exquisite model is the Vacheron Constantin calibre 2460 G4/2, an automatic movement operating at 28,800 vibrations per hour, providing about 40 hours of power reserve, with its oscillating weight engraved with the Louvre's eastern façade. The reference 7620A/000G-H078 is completed with a blue Mississippiensis alligator leather strap and an 18K white-gold folding clasp, and it bears the prestigious Geneva Seal.
