  • Catalogue Essay

    The Overseas, introduced in 1996, pays homage to Vacheron Constantin's iconic 222 while redefining sporty elegance. Its fluid tonneau case now integrates a metal bracelet, accentuating seamless lines. In 2016, designer Vincent Kaufmann refined the Overseas aesthetic further with the ref. 4500V. Available in steel or pink gold, it features an interchangeable strap system including crocodile and rubber options.

    This striking example displays a classic silver dial with a date window at 3 o'clock. The in-house cal. 5100 movement bears the prestigious Geneva Seal with a 60-hour power reserve. Offered in barely worn condition complete with box and papers, this Overseas is ready for life's everyday adventures.

  • 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.
