Vacheron Constantin 1940s Rare Rectangular Case 18k Cal 458/1B 27mm Manual Wind
Vacheron Constantin
For auction is a 1940's Vacheron Constantin caliber 458/1b unusual fancy case 18k yellow gold manual winding 27mm with big 20mm lug width two tone fancy silvered dial. A really exceptional and unusual piece with a very infrequently seen case. The 27mm size is actually a very nice size for a non-round watch; it wears fairly big especially due to the 20mm lug width. The dial has a very pleasing patina with some areas of darkening edge. Caseback has an interesting engraving: CHS Jr. A very special vintage Vacheron.
