It\u2019s interesting to see how much flack some brands have taken over new collections in the last couple of years. The Piaget Polo S and AP\u2019s Code 1159 are the first that spring to mind, and though to a lesser degree the Vacheron Constantin<\/a> Fiftysix was more or less in the same boat. It seems that every time a brand from the upper echelon of watchmaking decides to make something more approachable, they get pushed under the bus. Accused of \u201ccheaping out\u201d, or diluting the brand, I can\u2019t help but laugh every time one of these situations presents itself, because this is the same very vocal crowd that moans and groans that luxury watches from these same houses are too expensive. Seems to me, some are simply never satisfied, right?<\/p>\n

\"Vacheron
Despite being the entry point into Vacheron’s catalog, the Fiftysix is anything but entry-level.(Image: Vacheron Constantin)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

While I didn\u2019t care for every single detail about the Vacheron Constantin Fiftysix when it launched (I found the dials of the original three hand versions a little flat), I certainly wasn\u2019t incensed or outraged by Vacheron delivering a new entry-level collection, especially considering its design is quite well aligned with the aesthetic principles that echo through the rest of the brand\u2019s collections. The stubby-lugged 40mm cases fit very comfortably on the wrist, and are elaborately faceted and beveled in a way that draws in the eye without seeming overly busy.<\/p>\n

With a jumping off point of $11,600 for a 3-hand and date watch, the standards have to be kept quite high, and when the opportunity came up to spend some extended time with the latest blue-dialed variant of the Fiftysix, I couldn\u2019t say no. I\u2019d done the same with the Polo S, finding myself surprisingly impressed with its execution (regardless of vague similarities to the Patek Aquanaut and Nautilus), and I was curious to see what sort of impression the Vacheron Constantin Fiftysix would leave after some time on the wrist compared to my initial thoughts having seen it during brief presentations.<\/p>\n

All About The Details<\/strong><\/h2>\n

As I noted in my intro, there is a lot of detail on the case of the Vacheron Constantin Fiftysix – so much, that I found myself noticing different things the more time I spent wearing it. Little details like the way little corners of its case protrude from underneath its bezel between its lugs, or how the slender bevel on its right lugs broadens to become the profile of its crown guards (for example) weren\u2019t things that jumped out at me at first glance. I also didn\u2019t initially notice that its crown is somewhat oversized considering its case dimensions. Though it tucks away nicely behind the aforementioned crown guards and has quite subtle ribbing, it was consistently easy to grip and operate as needed.<\/p>\n

In this configuration, Vacheron addressed one of the minor gripes I had with the initial 3-hand version – its date window. Granted, they at least ensured that the font of its date disc matches the indices on the dial (something that doesn\u2019t happen nearly often enough), but the contrast created by its white date disc beneath an opaline or silver dial just felt a little unfinished. With the blue dial variant, VC opted for a blue date disc, making its date indication much more subtle without impacting legibility.<\/p>\n

\"Vacheron

On Wrist Comfort<\/strong><\/h2>\n

There are some pluses and minuses to the Vacheron Constantin Fiftysix when you first strap it on. The profile of its case hugs the wrist very nicely, however its stock strap is very stiff when first strapped on, and when paired with its deployant clasp, it\u2019s not the most comfortable watch out there. As you break in its alligator leather strap, it will definitely soften and become more comfortable, so don\u2019t let that throw you. Given my collection of aftermarket straps, I often opted to swap the Fiftysix onto other options, which worked out quite well.<\/p>\n

Unlike more conventional dress watches, the Fiftysix is surprisingly suited to casual wear with an assortment of straps. This is a great benefit for this kind of watch – with Vacheron wanting to capture a new and younger demographic, it is imperative that the watch be versatile and well-rounded for frequent wear. After all, the more a new VC owner finds himself wearing\/loving his\/her new watch, the more likely he is to think of the brand again when preparing to make his\/her next purchase.<\/p>\n

\"Vacheron
Although it is the entry-level offering in Vacheron’s lineup, the Fiftysix is just as well-finished as its more expensive siblings. (Image: Vacheron Constantin)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The Verdict<\/strong><\/h2>\n

All told, The Vacheron Constantin Fiftysix collection isn\u2019t going to create a monumental shift in sales for VC, nor is it going to instantly become as highly desired and coveted as things like the Nautilus, Daytona, or Submariner. That said, this watch moves the price of entry down several thousand dollars when compared to things like the Overseas, and its design has mass-market appeal that should at least draw in some new clientele. At a personal level, the complete calendar is still the favorite when compared to the three hand model, but this guy is a solid effort at the very least.<\/p>\n
