To celebrate this special occasion, an exclusive reception was hosted to welcome distinguished guests with the opportunity to step into the magnificent two-floor boutique for the first time. Dedicated to technical and aesthetical Haute Horlogerie and decorated with a luxurious interior design in harmony with the brand codes, the entire range of the Vacheron Constantin collection including the three exclusive Ginza Boutique limited-edition timepieces was showcased.
The guests were then transferred to a mysterious dinner venue and came to a surprising halt to discover themselves in front of the beautiful Zojoji Temple, located in the heart of Tokyo. Set in attractive gardens and surrounded by trees, the Temple is the perfect location to represent a striking contrast between historical and contemporary, reflecting Vacheron Constantin’s shared values of modern expression and watchmaking tradition. A transparent
tent house was built in front of the illuminated main temple, within reach of the lit-up Tokyo
Tower and skyscrapers. Twenty remarkable heritage pieces, including the first pocket watch
signed by J.M. Vacheron in 1755, all belonging to the Vacheron Constantin heritage collection
in Geneva, were displayed.
After enjoying the cocktail and the demonstration of a Vacheron Constantin High-Complication
watchmaker, the guests were seated for the dinner. After Vincent Gouget welcomed the
guests, Juan-Carlos Torres explained: “Following the recent openings in New York, Paris, and
London the inauguration of this welcoming and cozy boutique in Ginza is a fine opportunity to
reinforce the historical bond between Japan and Vacheron Constantin”.
To celebrate the night, star Chef Yosuke Suga created a special original menu for the first time
since his recent triumphant return to Japan from France. The evening was brought to a
captivating conclusion with a live music performance by the two renowned artists Pianist Yukio
Yokoyama and Japanese traditional flute Gagaku musician Togi Hideki who played together for
the first time.
