I'm really glad that the 3670 isn't a leaf hand model. If it was, I would have wanted it at all costs (^_-)-☆
I am also very attracted to tonneau-shaped models, but I have not been able to find a reference that really fits my needs.
All photos except the first one are taken from various sources. Thank you. This is a 5940j that I once owned. I bought it because I was very attracted to the tonneau case and the cream-colored dial. However, the main reasons I ended up selling it were tha...
Hi Shun san, Thanks for sharing your thoughts !
Interesting to learn that the seconds hand is important to you ! Is this function important to you because of time measurement or aesthetic reasons ?
This ref. 5030 is truly beautiful and your example is really lovely.
The reference also exists with leaf hands, generally with painted Arabic numerals. But there is a very rare and, to my eyes, absolutely wonderful variant with a black dial and diamond indexes. Vacheron Constantin has also done a no-date, no-seconds hand v...
The 5940 is a lovely watch, but you are correct about the hands...

Actualy I do like the missing second hand a lot. It somehow slows down and I'm retired and don't need the second information anymore 😉 I never recognized an issue with the leaf hands but understand your point. Considering size, proportion and esthetics fo...
The only alternatives I can think of
with such a tonneau-cushion case and a seconds hand are the following ones. Best, Emmanuel Ref. 3585 www.watchprosite.com credit: analog shift Ref. 5950 & 5951 www.watchprosite.com Ref. 3670A www.watchprosite.com credit: @timvaux Ref. 5275P credit: antiqu...
Nice 😍
The case size- and shape of the 5940 was a bit more to my taste. Details. Both watches are just great and still underrated 👍🏻
Couldn't agree more!
I've been meaning to put together a post presenting it, since it's my latest addition. I guess this was a sneak preview!
