Part of the "holy trinity," Vacheron Constantin is known for its exceptional quality in watchmaking, on par with Patek Philippe and Audemars Piguet. VC was founded in 1755 by Jean-Marc Vacheron who is credited with creating the first complication in high-horology. Today VC is the oldest continuously operating watchmaker. In the modern era, Vacheron Constantin may be best suited for understated collectors, since their designs are not overplayed by fashion houses and market hype.

Vacheron's Historiques line pays tribute to its heritage for over two decades now. This example, circa 1990s sits in the neo-vintage era, which we believe remains undervalued compared to its vintage and modern counterparts. The 35mm yellow gold case is 18k and fits elegantly on the average sized wrist. White dials housed in yellow cases are some of the most classic of all combinations and the enamel dial on this piece looks immaculate and crisp. The case remains in fantastic condition and appears to be unpolished. Included is a solid VC signed buckle.
