Vacheron Constantin, Squelette, Circa 1970's, White gold and diamonds

The 1970s marked one of the most creative and unconventional periods in the history of watch design. During this decade, traditional Swiss maisons began experimenting with bold aesthetics, integrated bracelets, refined textures, and highly architectural forms, creating timepieces that blurred the line between horology and jewellery. Among the brands that embraced this new design language, Vacheron Constantin distinguished itself through the creation of highly sophisticated and artistic watches.

The present example perfectly embodies the creativity and refinement of those years. Crafted in white gold, the watch features an elegant round case enhanced by a diamond-set bezel that adds brilliance while preserving the overall balance and sophistication of the design. Its striking skeletonized dial puts the beautiful movement fully on display, revealing the intricate architecture of the calibre and showcasing the remarkable decorative work typical of high-end Swiss watchmaking. The integrated white gold Milanese bracelet further elevates the piece, giving the watch a fluid and harmonious appearance on the wrist while emphasizing the refined textures so characteristic of 1970s design.

Preserved in excellent condition, the watch still retains crisp hallmarks and its original proportions.
