Released in 1995 to commemorate the 240th anniversary of Vacheron Constantin, the Jubilee 240 stands as a remarkable tribute to the brand’s enduring mastery of traditional mechanical horology. Its sophisticated movement displays the hours and minutes, drives a subsidiary seconds dial positioned at 6 o’clock, a circular date display at 2 o’clock, and a sector-shaped power reserve indicator at 10 o’clock.
Produced in limited numbers, the model was offered in yellow gold, white gold, and platinum, underscoring its exclusivity and appeal to discerning collectors.
The present example is accompanied by its original presentation box and papers, offering an exceptional opportunity to acquire a timepiece that commemorates a milestone anniversary in the history of one of the world’s most prestigious watchmaking houses.
