This older model of the Overseas is excellent, I have thought about getting it in the past. Even thought the bracelet is arguably not as nice as the newer one and the movement is not in-house, the watch case is perfect for Asian wrists and the date is at the normal '3' position.
ReplyDeleteHi Mr. Leaf, I have a passion on Vacheron Constantin too, seems the brand name can tell the whole history of fine watch of the Switzerland.
ReplyDeleteI wanted to buy Model 222, I saw one in one pre-owned shop 3 years ago at HKD$25,000 but the condition wasn't nice and I dropped the idea to but it, That is a good good stuff drom VC too!
The Stainless steel in making the VC is Tough like those knife the Surgeoy used to cut my belly for the appendix fix!
