Vacheron Constantin

From 1943

 

The use of steel and 14k gold trim reflected wartime austerity but the gilt dial added an optimistic splash. The watch is no longer with me but I am happy to have experienced it. It was obtained from a relative of the original owner and, so far as I'm able to tell, has passed through three more hands since. I dearly hope it sees some wrist time.
