Vacheron Constantin’s reference 4177 is the stunning, and elegant precursor to the brands most iconic reference 4178. Both introduced in 1940, their main, yet subtle difference is their lugs.
While reference 4178 was designed with a wider tear-shape lug with 280 pieces made, reference 4177 is defined by more elongated tear-drop lugs. With a mere 24 pieces encased in pink gold, this reference is highly desirable and utterly rare.
The present example’s unrestored case is proof that age is beauty. The three-toned pink dial, also unrestored, is itself a work of art, with gorgeous hues of copper, rose gold, and brass. This watch is sure to satisfy any avid collector’s desire to own one of the most rare Vacheron Constantin chronographs in existence.
