An encounter with the gem setter at the Vacheron boutique in Paris.

Yesterday I visited the Vacheron boutique of Paris. There was a reason behind this visit: actually, to celebrate the "journées européennes des métiers d'art", Vacheron proposed to Gérard Paquelet, the gem setter, to put his workbench inside the boutique for a demonstration of his craftsmanship and skills. So I couldn't miss his presence since gem setting is an art I highly appreciate.

For this specific event, Vacheron managed to gather some watches which were presented at the very latest SIHH like the full set of the 4 Fabuleux Ornements pieces.
