Vacheron Constantin And Snow Golf Cup 2009 In Megeve

Swiss watchmaker Vacheron Constantin will support the 2009 Snow Golf Cup held in Megeve, France from February 5th through February 8th.  Vacheron Constantin's announcement marks the continuation of a four-year relationship between the historic manufacturer of haute horlogerie and the elegant tournament held in the French Alps.  More than 250 golfers of both amateur and professional status will converge upon the white fairways of the Mont D'Arbois to play a two-round course of nine holes.  Teams are each composed of two individuals.

Through its sponsorship, Vacheron Constantin both encourages the development of an original winter sport and highlights the similarity between the art of watchmaking and the precision of golf--regardless of the surface upon which the latter is played.  Such virtues as unfailing discipline, technical form, and creativity tempered by intelligence are some of the prerequisites for achievement in either field.  With more than 250 years of expertise in the demanding field of exceptional watchmaking, Vacheron Constantin is superbly qualified to enter into such a mutually beneficial relationship.
