And here is my other favorite VC

Nov 12, 2020,06:53 AM
 


When I bought it, I had never expected to wear it as much as I do.

But this watch just simply fits every occasion (ok excluding scuba diving and golf) and its such a striking combination of heritage, incredible dial with hour numbers in the most beautiful blue hue ive ever seen.

Add the slightly rotated dial plus the odd location of the crown and all ingredients for an evergreen are there.

I wear it for work, for leisure, for pleasure and lastly I wear it for no other reason than to look at it time and time again.

Its the VC Historique 1921 platinum version

I couldn’t have said it any better. What makes it extra nice (at least fir me) is the historie behind that rotated dial. In 1921 an American with a big love fir automobiles, commissioned a watch with VC with such a rotated dial. Why? Well in those days st... 

Huge love for that one!

For watches this size, platinum looks less in your face, than pink gold. And easier to wear in busy streets or public transport. Geo

Congratulations and in 2021

there will be a "100th anniversary model" of the VC 1921 historic model. As we said "Never 2 out of 3". Enjoy yours,

Dont know

I dont know if they will bring a 100 year anniversary model. It would seem likely though. Whats your bet: yellow gold with the dial in same style and font as the original? Or steel version like they did on the CdV?

I just know it is planned.

But no more details at this stage ;-(

Couldn't agree more

But in respect to the "other" brands; I can name a few time only pieces that are equally beautiful Euh, hmm, no I cant haha

I can see why. Beautiful iconic Vacheron.
