Vacheron Constantin 18k Teardrop 1940sVacheron Constantin Teardrop Sub Seconds 1940s Gold Elegance A beautifully preserved Vacheron Constantin dress watch from the 1940s, defined by its elegant teardrop lugs, Roman numerals, and sub seconds with minute track. The 18k yellow gold case harmonizes perfectly with the gold hands and indices, creating a warm, refined presence on the wrist. The original silver two tone dial remains untouched and underscoring the watchs authenticity and rarity.

Its case is paired with a sunburst silver dial and a uniquely hammered bezel and bracelet finish

making this well-preserved example an exceptional collector’s find — a bridge between early Omega chronographs and the golden era of tool watches

also this piece is finished with the characterizing blued steel minute and hour hand which makes this an absolute eye catcher
