Catalogue Essay
I was very drawn to the unusual case of this Vacheron. It is almost a little baroque in style because of its combination of round case with very sharp, pointed lugs and an angular shoulder where the lugs meet the case. It sits quite flat on the wrist which suits its small diameter well, allowing it to wear a little bigger than you might expect. - Mark Cho

- The present Vacheron Constantin wristwatch is a yellow gold Historique ref. 31045/000J-3.
- Boasting a warm silvered dial with an Écailles de Poisson guilloche center, the dial adorned with an emblematic Maltese cross above the signature, feuille hands, along with applied Roman numerals and Deltoid hour markers, all in the same hue that complements the case.
- Taking cues from its predecessors, the dial is fitted in a simple yet attractive yellow gold case with triangular lugs that offers a seamless transition to the striking emerald green leather straps.

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.
