Notes

Created in 1775, by Jean-Marc Vacheron, Vacheron Constantin is the oldest watch manufacturers in the world with an uninterrupted watchmaking history since its founding. From this continuity comes not only a considerable legitimacy on the international scene, but also and above all an impressive know-how. A quest for excellence that has been going on for more than 200 years, as evidenced by their motto: "Do better if possible, and it’s always possible". Elegant, classic, with an easy-to-read dial in spite of the complications and the famous lugs of the 1950’s: all the ingredients of Vacheron Constantin’s success are present on this lot. Proof that this wristwatch is timeless, a triple calendar was re-launched by the manufacture in 2017.
