Some Vacheron Constantin Delight: Patrimony Skeleton Platinum.
Here is the 36 mm case. Which I find exquisite in this size. The platinum case has some very nice proportions, indeed, and the dial is just a marvel to be admired. As for the movement, it is the good old Jaeger Lecoultre, reworked by Vacheron in terms of ...
Marvel it is!
Who ever claimed that 41mm was a decent size for a wristwatch. It’s not! So much under one hood. Marvel. Who cares about in house now?

But what a beautiful watch! Stunningly gorgeous piece!
first word that comes to my mind is "marvel"
perfect size in my opinion and very nice details. thanks a lot for sharing! Kev
Absolutely gorgeous

Just beautiful and just legible enough, while my eyesight remains good.
More than most fine watches, I imagine this gorgeous skeleton perpetual as a heirloom to remind its custodian that life is both beautiful and fleeting. Inherited at 30, appreciated at 40, passed down at 60.
