Vacheron started specializing in the production of complicated watches, slowly earning a first-class place and giving birth to some amazing pieces for aesthetic and technical quality. The Dual Time lot offered here is an exceptional piece of design and craftsmanship by Vacheron Constantin: the combined elements of champagne dial and case harmonize in a symphony of monochrome yellow color. The yellow-gold case has indeed been preserved in excellent conditions and present two crowns that are unusual to find in a pocket watch. This watch in fact comes with two movements for two different dials: both are simply stunning in its essentiality with the same champagne color but different for the indexes and hands, one with applied baton indexes and hands and the second with painted black Roman numerals and feuille hands.
