Vacheron Constantin Historiques American 1921 in Rose Gold

When one thinks of the the Roaring Twenties, images of smokey jazz bars, artistic revolution and technological advancement spring to mind. What better watch perfectly encapsulates this period of prosperity and social transformation than the Vacheron Constantin American 1921?

Part of the renowned Historiques Collection, the American 1921 turns the concept of time on its head. The dial is shifted to allow for diagonal reading, allowing its wearer to read the time without moving the wrist - a useful trick when hopping between speakeasies and dancing around a sea of fringe. The crown is cleverly placed at the 1:30 position - because in the 1920s, why not? 

The gorgeous rose gold case gives the Ref. 82035/000R-9359 the elegance that Vacheron is well known for, with the Maltese Cross reminding us that it isn't only the aesthetics of the watch that make it so significant - the excellence and reliability of the Manual Wind Cal. 4400 AS are the American 1921's bulwark. 

Coming to us in lovely condition, from its original owner, the watch comes accompanied by its guarantee, travel pouch and leather wallet.
