Vacheron Constantin Minute Repeater Perpetual Calendar Ref 30020 in platinum: For the sheer pleasure of the eyes.

 
 By: amanico : July 18th, 2019-00:51
For me, Vacheron Constantin is synonym of " exquisite ", " refined ", " purity ". And, according to my tastes, this Ref 30020 in platinum is a true Vacheron. A 36 mm big, under 10 mm high, pure marvel. These tear drop lugs, the dial are to die for. And wh...  

What a great watch, a real classic indeed.

however, from the pictures, it seems as all the calendar hands are just a tad too long? Certainly the one for the months make it almost impossible to guess what month it is. In reality though one will know anyhow the current month 😀. Dirk

It’s perfectly balanced in the scale of its design.

I had the chance to see this in person and it does not disappoint. If anyone happens to be in Tokyo, I can recommend a spot to check it out (at least for the time being). This and the 47101P with silver dial are my favorites from Vacheron.

Aaaah, the 47101!

Here it is in platinum with the two different dials: ...  

Lovely! About the crown and pushers...

It seems on the 30020 the crown is white gold. But on the 47101P the crown is platinum and the pushers are white gold, both based purely on my visual observation that the colors are a little different. A curious detail if true. Do you know if this is corr... 

A minute repeating perpetual in a 36x10mm case..... unthinkable in today‘s world. Sadly.

Beautifully executed, balanced work that carries all the VC dna.

Yes, a bygone era! [nt]
