Vacheron Constantin

A pure piece of Beauty, Art and poetry. I will have to post somethiing, one day, about the Mercator... Enjoy! Nicolas. PS: This Watch is not mine, sadly... ...  

And for me it is so sad, as it has been for sale for so long in Paris. It needs a good home to be worn! It has so many virtues. First of course is the alternate time function. When I set mine, it is quite a game to see if you can set it to an atomic clock... 

Mercator, and I would not mind living with any of them. You described it so well, my friend. This is an exquisite piece, a " very Vacheron " one. I will put something on line, here, when I have the time. All the best. Nicolas.

One recently sold here in USA for an incredible sum. The German is one third less. But yes, i agree the enamel USA is beautiful. I compromised. I took the engraved America's. oh well, money left over to save for later! The older Audubon series is also sky... 

Merci Nicolas for showing us this Piece of Art. I am pretty sure that it Must be one on the top of your "dream watch" list:) And soon it will be gracing your wrist. Cheers my friend. Francois from Koala country!

if only money was not a problem... Best, Nicolas

little experience of life I have discovered one thing.......Money is like girls, the more you run after them the further away they go:) so, with money I do not run, I just walk, not too fast so the money can catch up with me:) It works my dear friend........ 

This one is a real beauty. I will definitely be in the market for a Europe or Asia in the coming months. Not easy to find as so few were made. Thanks for fueling my desire, again and again Nico. Dean

I would dream about a Mercator Roll Call! Best, Nicolas

... once more :-) Unfortunately I couldn´t take it with me :-( Oliver ...  

The size looks perfect, is it 36 or 37mm? Cheers Francois from Down Under

and I think it is "just" 35mm. Cheers, Oliver

And it really suits your wrist. Being Belgian, the link with Mercator is extra interesting. Perhaps one day when everything comes together... Btw, long time no see, we have to change that, any idea when and where? :-) Cheers, Dirk

there have been amazing watches ... :-) Long time no see, we have to change this. PM, sent. One more "European" version for you: Oliver ...  

it is the perfect blend of art and complication. Bill

I completely agree... if only I could

...there is the small matter of money. ;-D

And so realistic at the same time! ;) Best, my friend. Nicolas

Reporting, sir!

Here it is: ...  

You have all the tastiest VCs!! :) Cheers Robin

I will start saving:) the difficult thing is to find one as well as getting the funds:) Cheers Francois from Down Under

Beautiful watch! The Mercator is, to me, perhaps the most iconic Vacheron Constantin watch from the post-quartz era. As you might imagine, a Mercator is near the very top of my list, as well. This Germany, the France, the Japan, the Americas...I am not so... 

Beautiful watch! Thanks for sharing Nicholas. What's there not to like about these Mercators? There is one version I really like with the map of Admiral Cheng Ho's journeys (Ming Dynasty China) but it's all sold out and I can't afford to compete with the ... 

Will try to post something, one day. Best, Robin. Nicolas

I am learning more and more on this forum from you! :) Cheers Robin

Vlad Dracul, as Nicolas is better known, is dangerous. Some of us have learned the hard way. ;-) This concludes our public service announcement. respo

I am slowly being "poisoned" on the jlc forum as well! :p Good public service Robert. :) Cheers Robin
