Why We Love it

The Holy Trinity of watch brands: Rolex, Patek Philippe, and Vacheron Constantin.

Generally less understood than either of its respected compatriots, Vacheron Constantin has a legacy of producing some of the very finest high horology complications in history — and some of the loveliest.

Sports watches came later to VC, as pressure from the new ‘Luxury Sports Watch’ category introduced in the early 1970s forced the storied brand to evolve — but historically, classically styled dress pieces is where Vacheron cut their teeth.

The Patrimony line is to Vacheron as the Calatrava line is to Patek Philippe, classic, understated and timeless. This particular Patrimony, dating to the 1980s, features a 34mm yellow gold case, a mineral crystal, a signed crown, a polished, stepped bezel, and a gloss champagne “Sigma” dial with a matching gold stick handset and indices, plus a date complication at 3 o’clock. Powered by an automatic Vacheron Constantin movement, it comes paired to an 18mm black alligator-style leather strap with a signed, 18K pin buckle. 

In good condition throughout, this is a fantastic opportunity to own a classic dress watch style from one of the world’s finest watchmakers.

Brand Story

+
Few watchmakers can claim a lineage as long or as rich as that of Vacheron Constantin.
Established in 1755, the manufacture soon had a reputation for the elegance of its products, which included pocket watches with complicated movements and engine-turned dials. Even today, these are marks of a watchmaker’s expertise due to the skill and precision involved in crafting them. For Vacheron Constantin to have achieved such a feat in the eighteenth century is nothing short of remarkable.
This expertise carried the firm through the 19th century, earning it gold medals at National Exhibitions and blazing trails in the area of anti-magnetic timepieces. The 20th century saw further achievements, such as the opening of its boutique on the Quai de L’Ile in Geneva, where it still resides today.

Even through the Depression and the Second World War, when many watch companies were forced to band together with competitors or else face closure, the manufacture continued to thrive. Whether via its vintage-inspired Historiques collection or its adventurous Overseas line, modern Vacheron Constantin is a horological force to be reckoned with.
