On 3 November last year, Vacheron Constantin welcomed CHAN Chun Wai (陈镇威) as the first-ever Chinese talent to join its campaign. By embodying the stylistic purity of classic lines and curves to modern approaches, CHAN personifies the Patrimony and Traditionnelle collections, featuring a supremely elegant blend of magnificent details incorporated into the arts of watchmaking and ballet. 

Throughout New York City Ballet’s 2021-22 Repertory Season, his first with the Company and as a Soloist, CHAN performed numerous leading roles in ballets by NYCB founding choreographers George Balanchine and Jerome Robbins, as well as works by Andrea Miller, NYCB Resident Choreographer Justin Peck, and Christopher Wheeldon. CHAN made his final debut of the season in the role of Titania’s Cavalier in George Balanchine’s beloved full-length classic, A Midsummer Night’s Dream, which closed out NYCB’s 2022 Spring Season with ten performances from 21 to 29 May 2022 at the David H. Koch Theater, Lincoln Center. 

In the same month, New York City Ballet announced the promotion of CHAN to Principal Dancer. CHAN is the first Chinese and one of only four Asian dancers to ever achieve this ranking in the history of the New York City Ballet. Delighted with this encouraging news, Vacheron Constantin wishes to express its warmest appreciation for CHAN’s unremitting commitment to furthering the art of ballet.

On 22 September 2022, CHAN accomplished the first debut of 2022-23 Fall Season in Piano Pieces, a Russian romantic ballet choreographed by Jerome Robbins, in which he was paired with Sara Mearns for an impressive performance. He is scheduled to debut in George Balanchine’s Symphony in C, Justin Peck’s Everywhere We Go, and will originate a featured role in a new ballet by choreographer Gianna Reisen. 

“I hope my experience will be of inspiration to the new generations of young dancers, encouraging them to continue the quest for excellence, and keep challenging themselves on a wider international stage. By passing on the spirit, skills and passion, I believe more brilliant Chinese dancers will in future be accepted, embraced and applauded on the worldwide stage of ballet,” says CHAN.

Vacheron Constantin, which has pursued its role in the field of Haute Horlogerie without interruption since 1755, has continuously reinvented itself in the realms of technical excellence and aesthetic refinement. The One of Not Many campaign presented in 2018 showcases talents whose personalities and works express the constant quest for excellence, openness to the world and spirit of innovation characterising the Maison. As an enthusiastic dancer, CHAN is renowned for his solid, concise and elegant performances. His philosophy is illustrated in his dedication to ballet, striking a natural chord with the values dear to Vacheron Constantin. “A perfect movement comes from technique as much as from absolute dedication,” he says. CHAN’s devotion to perfection in his choreography equally embodies the Vacheron Constantin motto “Do better if possible, and that is always possible.” 

As the new Fall season has just opened, filled with variables and challenges, CHAN looks forward to embarking on his journey within the sanctuary of international ballet.
