Description For your consideration is this Vacheron Constantin Historiques American 1921, an iconic timepiece from the world's oldest watch brand with a design that captivates quite unlike anything else on the market. This particular variation features a white gold case, screw-down crown, sapphire display case-back, running small seconds, silver dial with frosted finish and black-painted indexes and hands providing superb legibility. The theory behind the dial orientation has been discussed at great length by many others, so we won't attempt to add on except to say that we can confirm when worn on the wrist this timepiece really is much more convenient to read. Powering the watch is the manual-wind calibre 4400 AS. With a thickness of only 2.8mm, the movement is nothing short of a masterpiece.

Accordingly, the watch movement is truly a sight to behold, and its owner is sure to spend many hours admiring its beauty.
