Catalogue Essay
Elegant and sophisticated, Vacheron Constantin's Historique Chronograph may very well be the ultimate dress watch. Cased in platinum, the present watch pays homage to the iconic reference 4178 from the 1940s and 1950s, with its tachymeter scale and placement of subsidiary dials. However, the watch is updated with a signed crown and updated calibre that is Lemania based.
The present watch is a beautiful example, fitted with a rare salmon dial and is in excellent overall condition.

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.
