Perhaps the greatest 'challenge' of my horological life so far....
Is going to be be whether I will purchase the 1921 or the Reverso Septantieme as my next watch. Mind you, I have yet to see either watch in person, mercifully with a VC boutique nearby I can at least achieve one first-hand impression fairly easily.... Thanks for the excellent wristshots, cheers, Filip
Three watches walk into a hotel lobby
As some of you saw, Orahu was in town earlier this week. We’ve missed each other a few times recently but this week we managed to grab some short time to grab a coffee, talk watches and bikes. And yes, I had my C6 on the wrist as Orahu shared. But for me,...
Definitely the right one for me.
It’s very cool, obviously. But this one is also nicely thin, I think 9mm or so.

I do like these 1921.
But apparently they are not that easy to see currently. I think Orahu mentioned that VC told him none were to be found in store at the moment.
Coincidentally however I just noticed two (both RG, one 36.5 and the other 40mm) popped up on a dealer site.
Pretty sure I checked same dealer site on Tuesday after trying this one on and there were none. Maybe they are tracking my internet usage !!!
Interesting
They are two completely different watches, which is generally not a situation I find myself in. Curious to hear how you ended up there, if you ever get a chance to share.
Outside of pieces that are over $50K, these two are my favorite dress watches of all time 🙂
Ideally, I'd eventually be in a position to get both, but since they're in the same price bracket, one will have to suffice foreseeably. And of course, despite their dress watch category, they couldn't be more different aesthetically speaking....
Both VC are classics
