In 1819, a partnership between the master watchmaker and founder\u2019s grandson, Jacques Barth\u00e9l\u00e9mi Vacheron, and businessman Fran\u00e7ois Constantin, led to the name Maison Vacheron Constantin. In 1880, the Maltese cross became the official emblem of the house.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Brad Pitt scored major style points at the 2026 French Open with a Vacheron Constantin watch on his wrist.
