About these collections
Overseas The travel and sports line, notched bezel and straps that change without tools
Overseas launched in 1996 as Vacheron Constantin's travel and sports line, following the 222 that Jorg Hysek designed for the house in 1977. The bezel is the tell, notched after the arms of the Maltese cross, six notches on the current generation where earlier ones had eight. Time and date, dual time and chronograph models are rated to 150 m and come with a bracelet and two straps that change without tools, a system introduced with the 2016 generation and absent from the earlier 42 mm references. The family runs from time and date through dual time and chronograph to world time, moon phase and tourbillon models.
How you know it
- six notch bezel on the current generation
- half Maltese cross bracelet links
- bracelet and straps that change without tools
- compass rose winding weight
Sizes
34.5 mm to 42.5 mm, with the 2004 generation men's models at 42 mm
Who it suits
For the buyer who wants one watch that covers travel, work and weekends, and who will actually use the strap change rather than leave it on the bracelet.
Patrimony The pared back round line, drawn from the house's slim 1950s dress watches
Patrimony launched in 2004, drawn from the slim Vacheron Constantin dress watches of the 1950s, references 6179 and 6187 among them, which ran the ultra thin 1001 and 1003 calibres. Nearly everything is stripped out: a round case with a thin bezel, a domed dial, slim applied gold markers curved to follow the dome, and a pearl minute track around the edge. The line covers hand wound and self winding models and extends through retrograde day and date and moon phase pieces to perpetual calendars. Cases are gold or platinum.
How you know it
- round case, thin bezel
- domed dial, applied gold markers
- pearl minute track
- gold and platinum cases
Sizes
36 mm to 42.5 mm
Who it suits
Suits a buyer who wants a formal watch with nothing on the dial to date it, and who is buying the proportions and the finishing rather than a complication.
Fiftysix A 1956 case shape brought back in 2018, with lugs drawn from the Maltese cross
Fiftysix arrived in 2018, built around the design of reference 6073, a Vacheron Constantin model from 1956. The lugs give it away, four of them, each cut as a branch of the Maltese cross. Dials are sector type, an opaline centre inside a brushed railway chapter ring, the hours alternating between applied Arabic numerals and batons under a box shaped sapphire crystal. The line runs from a self winding time and date through a day date with power reserve to a complete calendar, in steel or 18k pink gold.
How you know it
- Maltese cross branch lugs
- sector dial, opaline centre
- alternating numerals and batons
- box shaped sapphire crystal
Sizes
40 mm on the main models, 41 mm for the tourbillon
Who it suits
For the buyer who wants the house name in something worn with a jacket or without, rather than a strict dress watch.
Traditionnelle The classical Vacheron, stepped case, fluted band and chemin de fer minute track
Traditionnelle is Vacheron Constantin's classical line, drawn on the Geneva watchmaking traditions the house dates to the 18th century. It grew out of the Patrimony family and carried the Patrimony Traditionnelle name in its early years, worth knowing when you search older references. The design codes hold across the range: a stepped round case and lugs, a slim bezel, a fluted caseband, a chemin de fer minute track and dauphine hands with applied gold markers, and the Hallmark of Geneva on the mechanical calibres. The family covers time only models, complete and perpetual calendars, world time, tourbillons and minute repeaters, cased in white gold, pink gold and platinum, with small quartz models alongside them.
How you know it
- stepped round case and lugs
- fluted caseband under a slim bezel
- chemin de fer minute track
- dauphine hands with applied gold markers
Sizes
30 mm to 43 mm across the current range, with earlier high complications up to 44 mm
Who it suits
Suits a buyer who wants a serious complication kept inside a quiet formal case rather than a sports watch.
Historiques Models revisited from the house archive rather than newly drawn designs
Historiques is where Vacheron Constantin revisits watches from its own archive rather than designing something new. The American 1921 follows a cushion cased driver's watch made for the American market in the early 1920s, its dial set on the diagonal with the crown at 1 o'clock so the time could be read without taking a hand off the wheel. The 222 goes back to 1977 and Jorg Hysek's sports watch, with a notched bezel, an integrated bracelet and a Maltese cross set into the case at 5 o'clock. These are reinterpretations rather than copies, built on current Vacheron Constantin calibres and shown through sapphire backs.
How you know it
- case shapes taken from the archive
- American 1921 dial set on the diagonal
- 222 notched bezel, cross at 5 o'clock
- sapphire backs over current calibres
Sizes
36.5 to 40 mm on current models, the 222 at 37 mm
Who it suits
Suits a buyer who is after one particular historic design rather than a house style, and wants it built to current standards.
Vacheron Constantin has been making watches since 1755, and the Overseas is its modern statement, an integrated bracelet sport watch that trades hype for finishing. Our selection includes Overseas references in steel and rose gold, alongside Patrimony, Traditionnelle and Égérie.
