Surprisingly, this is the first time I’m writing about Vacheron Constantin watches; VC is the world’s oldest watch manufacturer that has been in continuous operation, since 1755. They released two watches today but I’ll write about just one today, the watch is called Vacheron Constantin Overseas Perpetual Calendar Chronograph, yes that’s a mouthful.
The Perpetual Calendar Chronograph rose gold, Ref. 49020/000R-9753, comes in a 18k rose gold case with a brushed and polished finish and measures 42 mm. The crown and two pushers are very elegant, as is the light grey opaline dial which is covered with sapphire crystal. The hour markers and the hour and minute hands are covered in 18k rose gold. The dial features 4 sub-dials that house the perpetual calendar: date, day, 48-month counter with leap year, and moon phase. The three top sub-dials also double as the chronograph counters. The watch comes with a hand-stitched brown alligator and a brown rubber strap.
The VC Overseas Perpetual Calendar Chronograph watch is powered by an in-house Swiss automatic movement, caliber 1136QP, with a 40 hour power reserve; the watch is water resistant to 150 meters. The case back is beautifully finished with a raised medallion of the Amerigo Vespucci ship.
