Vacheron Constantin Fiftysix Tourbillon

About this reference

The Vacheron Constantin Fiftysix Tourbillon reference 6000E/000R-B488 was introduced in 2018 as the flagship of the Fiftysix collection, which draws aesthetic inspiration from the 1956 reference 6073. This model remains in current production and features a 41mm case crafted from 18k pink gold. It is powered by the ultra-thin, automatic Calibre 2160/1, which utilizes a peripheral rotor to maintain a slim profile of 10.9mm while providing a 80-hour power reserve. Collectors value this reference for its silvered opaline dial with a Maltese cross-shaped tourbillon carriage and its position as the first high-complication piece in the brand’s entry-level luxury line. On the secondary market, this reference typically trades in the $85,000 to $115,000 range. A notable variant is the boutique-exclusive version featuring a slate grey dial, which offers a more modern aesthetic compared to the traditional silvered finish of the B488.
