Notes

Launched in 1992, the Vacheron Constantin reference 49005 is the first perpetual calendar chronograph.
It was produced in 500 rose gold pieces and less than 300 platinum pieces. Housing the caliber is 1136, originally based on a stunning movement by Frederic Piguet, known as one of the thinnest automatic chronographs in history.
Equipped with a beautiful white dial and a case of 38mm. , this chronograph displays the day, the date, the month and the moon-phases while keeping a very good readability. Still displaying a caseback sticker on the back as well as crisp numbers and hallmarks it has stayed in close to new condition.
