Vacheron Fifty Six Day Date Reference 4400E/000A-B437
Vacheron Fifty Six Day Date Reference 4400E/000A-B437
AS a personal preference, I chose a watch with sub-dials instead of double windows.
Case 40x11.6mm. 30m WR. The case is a little unusual because of the angles. But, I got used to it.
The stainless steel case is surprising light, almost like titanium. After wearing it for 20 days on a trip to Europe, I decided that I like this feature.
This new watch was quite accurate; -1 second/day over 4 weeks. But, ranged from -2 to +2. Not bullet proof like a Rolex.
As an entry level watch, it has no fancy tricks. The calendar change is semi-instantaneous.
The only reservation I have is the rather oversize cross on the clasp.

Wear it in good health
Classy gentleman's watch, I believe it has the geneva seal as well, so some hand-finishing all around.
Elizabeth Doerr liked it too
Some favourable comments … "... Against all odds, of the three new watches in the fresh, young line inspired by a watch the brand made in 1956 – the Self-Winding, the Day-Date, and the Complete Calendar – it is the Day-Date that has crystallized as the fa...
Very, very well done
It would be also my pic if I could spend the money for it. Happy for you that you could. Enjoy and some more pics, please.
Good execution of the dial.
Hope you can post a side view image. I am curious of the thickness relative to the diameter. Yes the strap cross looks overwhelming. But it is easy to replace it with something more subtle. Best Jim
Beautiful Design and Dial
Indeed the Fifty Six is a Design that adds to the Glory of the Vacheron Constantin . It`s a Modern Spirit rather than Historiq one . The Dial In particular is Gorgeous . Enjoy it .
Excellent choice
Congratulations, you’ve made an excellent choice. The clasp looks bit big on the picture but I have few VC’s with similar clasp and small wrists: in reality it doesn’t show or wear big It’s not often I hear a man classifying a VC s a tool watch but I agre...
Congratulations
Congrats you’ve got a master piece that will last for generations. In a style that’s never boring but endless. Great choice you made
