    « ONE OF NOT MANY » NEW COMMUNICATIONS CAMPAIGN « ONE OF NOT MANY » NEW COMMUNICATIONS CAMPAIGN OVERVIEW – « ONE OF NOT MANY » TALENTS Vacheron Constantin unveils its new communications campaign – BENJAMIN CLEMENTINE “One of not many”. The signature of the new Vacheron Constantin communications campaign – defines the exceptional universe it has embodied for more than 260 years. In the prestigious realm JAMES BAY of Fine Watchmaking, this is a Maison for connoisseurs, profoundly attached to human values and – enriched by expertise passed on across generations of master watchmakers and artisans. ORA ITO – Founded in 1755, Vacheron Constantin is the oldest watch manufacturer in continuous operation. CORY RICHARDS For more than 260 years, it has been constantly reinventing itself in keeping with the purest Fine Watchmaking traditions. Its philosophy is grounded on knowledge rather than outward appearance. The constant innovation, the spirit of exploration, the passion and the uncompromisingly high standards of its watchmakers and artisans; the transmission of ancestral skills, the wealth of its heritage and its ability to adapt to its times: such are the values that earn it both recognition and respect within the exclusive circle of Fine Watchmaking connoisseurs. “The watch industry represents over one billion watches per year, of which only 25 million are produced in Switzerland and barely 500,000 can lay claim to Fine Watchmaking status. Within this context, Vacheron Constantin focuses on limited and reasonable production volumes, as required to offer the highest level of quality, aesthetics and expertise. Within an already highly exclusive segment, our Maison is committed to maintaining a unique and sophisticated character.

Das Motto der neuen Kommunikationskampagne von Vacheron Constantin – gewährt Einlass in das außergewöhnliche Universum, in dem die Maison seit mehr als 260 Jahren JAMES BAY zu Hause ist. Im prestigeträchtigen Reich der Haute Horologerie ist Vacheron Constantin für – Kenner das Haus, das menschlichen Werten zutiefst verpflichtet ist und auf ein Wissen und Können ORA ITO zurückgreifen kann, das sich Meisteruhrmacher und kunstbegabte Handwerker seit Generationen – erarbeitet und weitergeben haben. CORY RICHARDS Vacheron Constantin wurde 1755 gegründet und ist die älteste, ununterbrochen tätige Uhrenmanufaktur der Welt. Seit mehr als 260 Jahren erfindet sich das Unternehmen beständig neu, ohne die Spur der reinsten Traditionen der Feinuhrmacherei zu verlassen. Die Philosophie des Hauses gründet in Wissen und Können und nicht auf Äußerlichkeiten. Beständige Innovation, Forschergeist, Leidenschaft und ein kompromisslos hoher Anspruch der Uhrmacher und Kunsthandwerker an ihre Arbeiten; die Weitergabe überlieferter Fähigkeiten, der Reichtum des Erbes und die Fähigkeit, sich den Zeitläufen anzupassen: Auf diesem Wertegerüst ruht die Wertschätzung und Achtung, die Vacheron Constantin vom exklusiven Kreis der Kenner hoher Uhrmacherkunst entgegengebracht werden. „Die globale Uhrenbranche stemmt ein Volumen von über einer Milliarde Uhren pro Jahr, von denen lediglich 25 Millionen in der Schweiz produziert werden und nur knapp 500.000 den Zugehörigkeitsstatus zur Haute Horologerie beanspruchen können. In diesem Zusammenhang beschränkt sich Vacheron Constantin auf limitierte und sinnvolle Produktionsmengen, um ein Höchstmaß an Qualität, Ästhetik und Expertise bieten zu können. In einem ohnehin schon sehr exklusiven Segment nimmt unser Haus für sich in Anspruch, einen außergewöhnlichen und verfeinerten Charakter zu pflegen.

Domenica 25 gennaio Benjamin sarà ospite in diretta a Che Tempo Che Fa, il programma condotto da Fabio Fazio in onda su Rai Tre alle 20:10. LA REDAZIONE Tutto ha avuto inizio un anno fa quando un giovane anglo-ghanese fino ad allora sconosciuto si ritrovò protagonista di una eccezionale serata [email protected] del "Later... With Jools Holland", lo show musicale più famoso della Bbc, SPETTACOLINEWS.IT dove sul palco quella sera si davano il cambio artisti come gli Arctic Monkeys, gli Earth, Wind & Fire e Paul McCartney. A stupire il pubblico, gli artisti presenti e soprattutto Sir McCartney, tutti in silenzio ad ascoltare, sono state quelle dita affusolate che correvano sulla tastiera di un pianoforte a coda e appartenevano ad un ragazzo in impermeabile e pantaloni scuri a petto nudo e senza scarpe che lo stava suonando e cantava con una voce mai sentita prima. Dopo quell'esibizione visibile su http://youtu.be/CJJNl1p-PGA è nato un coro entusiastico sui social media che hanno continuato a scrivere per giorni "È nata una stella" oppure "Nina Simone reincarnata? in un uomo!".
