This Vacheron Constantin wristwatch in 18k pink gold dates from around 1945. Its round case is fitted with "anse sovrapposte", applied lugs that are shaped separately and soldered onto the case, a detail that collectors of 1940s watchmaking actively seek. The warm tone of the pink gold and the sculpted profile of the lugs give the watch a strong architectural character. A refined example of Vacheron Constantin's post-war dress watches, it combines rarity, elegance and exceptional craftsmanship.
