Vacheron Constantin, Ref. 49020, “Overseas”
Vacheron Constantin’s iconic sports luxury watch fitted with calibre 1136 QP – a self-winding movement with chronograph and perpetual calendar. Present version has a pink gold case, an alligator strap and a grayish brown dial.
Vacheron Constantin, Calibre 1136 QP
This exceptional movement representing a compendium of technical Haute Horlogerie beats to the rhythm of Calibre 1136 QP and its 228 parts: a mechanical self-winding movement – just as one would expect from a sports watch – oscillating at the rate of 21 600 vibrations per hour and endowed with an approximately 40-hour power reserve. In addition to the hours, minutes and small seconds at 6 o’clock, Calibre 1136 QP powers the chronograph functions – sweep seconds-hand, 30-minute recorder at 3 o’clock and 12-hour recorder at 9 o’clock – as well as those of the perpetual calendar – day of the week, date, 48-month recorder with leap years as well as a moon-phase display.
