Vacheron Constantin Historiques Ref. 48003 Yellow Gold

SGD $13,500.00
| /

Among the earliest models from Vacheron Constantin's Historiques collection, the reference 48003 draws inspiration from the brand's celebrated mid-century "Fancy Lug" watches. The highlight is undoubtedly its sculpted teardrop lugs, which flow seamlessly from the sharp 18k yellow gold case and give the watch a presence far beyond its size. Complementing the case is a beautifully executed engine-turned silver dial with applied gold markers and numerals. This example appears to remain unpolished, retaining strong case lines throughout, and is accompanied by its original Vacheron Constantin strap and yellow gold buckle.
