Full-Cataloguing
• Interchangeable strap system, accompanied by 2 extra straps
• Virtually new condition, complete set, and consigned by the original owner
-Released in 2016, the Vacheron Constantin Overseas Chronograph ref. 5500V took on a whole new dimension for the famed model. Equipped with the firm’s first in-house chronograph caliber 5200, it marked an important milestone for the Maison.
-Retaining similar aesthetics to previous models, subtle changes such as the rising case sides allow the 42.5mm diameter case to provide an enhanced wrist presence. Manufactured with excellence with the certification of a Geneva seal, the brushed finish against its polished bevels provides a refined appeal at the same time showcasing the firm’s know-how in its exceptional craftsmanship. Released in a total of three variations in steel, the present example with a lacquered blue dial is certainly the most iconic.
-Thanks to its clasp and system of three easily interchangeable straps – steel bracelet, rubber, and leather - the watch can be personalized according to the owner’s wishes. The present example is unworn and like new, complete with all of its original accessories including a blue crocodile and blue rubber strap.
Vacheron Constantin
Swiss | 1755The world's oldest watch brand in continuous operation since its founding in 1755, Vacheron Constantin was the first watch company to manufacture movements with interchangeable parts beginning in 1839. Vacheron's watches are admired for their Latin-influenced case designs, well-balanced proportions and exquisitely finished movements of the highest quality. The Geneva-based manufacturer is known for their highly complicated masterpieces, including the King Farouk Grand Complication made in 1935, the Tour de l'Ile that was the most complicated serially produced wristwatch when introduced in 2005 and the 57260 — the world’s most complicated watch — made in 2015.
Key vintage models include minute repeating wristwatches such as the references 4261, chronographs such as the references 4178 and 6087 and the oversized Cioccolotone models such as ref. 4737. Collectors also appreciate Vacheron's Chronometer Royal pocket and wristwatches, as well as the '222,' the brand's first luxury sports watch produced from 1977 through 1984.
