Vacheron Constantin 'Guilloche' Dress Watch

Simple doesn’t have to mean boring—and this watch by Vacheron Constantin proves it. As a member of the Holy Trinity of watch brands, Vacheron Constantin is generally less understood than either of its respected compatriots. VC has a legacy of producing some of the very finest high horology complications in history - and some of the loveliest. This elegant dress watch dates to circa the 1940s and marries elements that truly distinguished the manufacture in midcentury. A brilliant manually-wound beauty, this 32mm 'petite' dress watch is packed with heritage details the brand has incorporated into its vintage-inspired offerings. Incredible lugs that are a key part of the design rather than an afterthought complement a beautiful guilloche dial center and outer 'silver' timekeeping ring with applique 'dot' minute markers and gold 'explorer' and 'diamond-faceted' indexes. To top it all off, the watch is completed with a blued steel central seconds hand that adds just a little splash of color where it is needed most.  Simple dress watches are one of those styles that just truly never is out of place. Dating to the golden age of dress watch design and from one of the definitive masters of dress watch execution, there's truly so much to love about this Vacheron. Plus, it's in truly excellent condition! With its timeless yet quirky looks - combined with extensive pedigree, this is a great opportunity to snag an excellent quality timepiece from one of the very best in the business!
