Vacheron Constantin is the oldest continuously operating Swiss watch manufacturer, and they are known for their elegant and classic dress watches. Here is an example of a tasteful ultra-thin dress watch from 1950, with interesting flourishes in the design that make it stand out such as the graceful so-called ‘scrolled’ lugs and the crosshair subsidiary seconds dial. This watch offers discerning collectors the chance to own a watch from a time long gone, that is both dignified and sophisticated in its design and offers tremendous value today especially in such well preserved condition with sharp case with hallmarks still present.
