  • Catalogue Essay

    With the ravish heritage of the renowned manufacturer, the Toledo was born in 1952. Since gaining its importance in the 1950’s, the Toledo was reborn once again in a series of three watches when it was launched over half a century later than its forefather. Housed inside a voluptuous rectangular case, is the imperative self-winding triple calendar movement and further charmed by a well-proportioned symmetrical dial layout.

    The present example is a Vacheron Constantin Toledo ref. 47300 in platinum and fitted with a rakish grey dial. Further adding to the attraction, the present example is accompanied by the full set of accessories that came with the watch when it was purchased.

  • Artist Biography

    Vacheron Constantin

    Swiss • 1755

    The 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.
