Les Cabinotiers Temporis Duo Grand Complication Openface is a lyrical celebration of time
In the world of watchmaking, few names carry the weight of history quite like Vacheron Constantin. The Swiss maison's 270-year legacy of being the world's oldest watchmaker in continuous production perfectly embodies humankind's quest to capture time and distil its mysteries within the confines of a metal case. Across that remarkable journey, the brand has tackled the grandest of complications and pushed the boundaries of horological expression. Yet, even for this fabled watchmaker, bringing together a split-seconds chronograph, a minute repeater, and a tourbillon in a wristwatch remains an extraordinary feat. These three complications, each formidable on its own, have tested generations of craftsmen. While they have shared space in the occasional grand pocket watch, uniting them in a single wristwatch remains a rare achievement. Vacheron Constantin first explored this daring combination in 2022 with a one-of-a-kind Les Cabinotiers timepiece powered by calibre 2757. Now, with the singular Les Cabinotiers Temporis Duo Grand Complication Openface — another one-off creation — the maison reveals the intricate beauty of the movement through a sapphire dial and caseback. Seen up close, the Temporis Duo Grand Complication Openface is a breathtaking spectacle. Its open worked sapphire dial, scarcely half a millimetre thick, offers an intimate view of the mechanical ballet beneath. Driving this marvel is the calibre 2757 S, a masterpiece of modern watchmaking composed of 696 meticulously finished components. From the split-seconds chronograph that captures parallel moments with elegant precision, to the minute repeater that strikes the hours, quarters, and minutes with remarkable clarity, every function reflects Vacheron Constantin's relentless pursuit of perfection. Anchoring it all is the tourbillon regulator, fitted with a spherical hairspring, quietly resisting the pull of gravity to keep time steady and true. And yet, the watch wears its technical brilliance lightly. Thoughtful choices such as titanium, silicon, and aluminium within the movement help reduce weight and friction, enhancing performance and preserving energy. Together, they sustain a generous 50-hour power reserve, even with the chronograph engaged. Frosted and polished surfaces, warm 5N pink gold accents, and a rich olive-green strap lend contemporary flair to this vessel of timeless craft. The 45mm pink gold case frames it all, substantial yet harmonious on the wrist. But beyond the complexity and beauty, there is a deeply human story. Much like the cabinotiers — the master watchmakers of Geneva who, centuries ago, crafted bespoke marvels for discerning patrons — a single artisan at Vacheron Constantin saw this creation through from start to finish. From the first bevel to the final adjustment, every polished edge, every satin-brushed surface, every hidden screw speaks of patience, skill, and a craft reverently passed down through generations. With the Les Cabinotiers Temporis Duo Grand Complication Openface, Vacheron Constantin invites us to witness the passage of time, to feel it, and to hear it. This is not merely a technical triumph, but a lyrical celebration of time's fleeting beauty, captured forever in metal, sapphire, and sound.

Celebrating Partnership: Switzerland and The International Trade Centre (ITC) Reaffirm Commitment to Africa's Trade Future
The International Trade Centre (ITC) celebrated its first Partnership for Africa Day, bringing together more than 200 high-level participants from institutions, Member States, business support organizations, donors, and small businesses. The event also marked a new milestone in ITC's collaboration with the Swiss-African Business Circle (SABC). This landmark occasion showcased how strategic, inclusive partnerships can drive trade, innovation, and prosperity for African small businesses. Held as a high-level welcome reception on the eve of Swiss Africa Business Day (SABD) 2025, the event was co-organized by ITC and SABC. It offered a unique platform for Swiss and African leaders from both the public and private sectors to deepen dialogue and shape forward-looking trade collaborations. 'By joining forces with ITC to organise a welcome reception as the official start to SABD2025, we further strengthened dialogue on Swiss-African trade. The event brought together actors from international Geneva, business support organisations, and public and private sector representatives from Africa, Switzerland, and beyond,' said Helena Bischoff, Deputy Managing Director, SABC. A central highlight of the gathering was the signing of a memorandum of understanding between H.E. Helene Budliger Artieda, State Secretary of the Swiss State Secretariat for Economic Affairs (SECO), and Prof. Benedict Oramah, President of Afreximbank. This formalized Switzerland's renewed commitment to advancing regional integration and SME development in Africa. Beyond official engagements, the reception celebrated the richness of Africa's creative economy. From a 'Taste of Africa' culinary experience curated by Geneva-based African restaurants to a fashion showcase featuring designs from the Pan African Fashion Alliance (PAFA) and Swiss NGO Afrodysée, the event underscored the growing importance of diaspora engagement and cultural industries in trade development. 'The State Secretariat for Economic Affairs collaborates with ITC, a long-standing partner, to strengthen the competitiveness of African SMEs by promoting intra-African trade and fostering linkages between Africa and Switzerland,' noted SECO representatives. As host country and development partner, Switzerland continues to play a pivotal role in ITC's mission to empower African small businesses. Through its One Trade Africa initiative, ITC supports the implementation of the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA) and promotes triangular cooperation between Switzerland, African institutions, and global partners. This inaugural Partnership for Africa Day was not only a celebration but also a springboard toward a more connected, resilient, and opportunity-rich trade future for Africa. Together with Switzerland and partners such as SABC and Afreximbank, ITC is committed to turning dialogue into action—and partnerships into impact.
