Vaucher Manufacture Fleurier Calibre Seed VMF 5500: a new extra-thin automatic calibre

With the Seed VMF 5500, Vaucher Manufacture Fleurier pushes the boundaries of horological finesse without compromising on performance.

A

vailable from just 25 pieces, this new micro-rotor automatic calibre adapts to every ambition, with no compromise on quality. At just 2.60mm thick without date function (3.00mm with date) and with a 65-hour power reserve, the Seed VMF 5500 family stands as one of the thinnest industrialised calibres on the market.

Its variable-inertia balance wheel with gold inertia blocks and 3 Hz frequency ensure stable, reliable timekeeping. The movement is 100% lead-free.

Certified for 10 years and guaranteed for 8 years, at Vaucher Manufacture Fleurier, reliability is measured, not promised. The Seed VMF 5500 undergoes a rigorous testing protocol for its 10-year qualification and certification, and is subject to demanding quality controls throughout the entire manufacturing process. For brands, it is the assurance of building on a proven movement, designed to last.

Every calibre can become your own. Dial-side and bridge-side finishes are entirely customisable to the highest standards of Haute Horlogerie: Côtes de Genève, diamond-polished bevelling, circular graining, perlage and two-tone laser engraving. Ideal for skeletonisation, it is available in titanium and compatible with additional complications (moon phase, perpetual calendar). Every detail can be reimagined so the movement tells your story.

Available from as few as 25 pieces. Discover this new calibre June 16-19, 2026 at EPHJ in Palexpo Geneva.
