Good to see you here. I realised there was one in that auction and they claimed only a handful pieces of white gold model were made.

But obviously it is still a mystery.
I remembered The discussion with you and Alex about this watch at that time, i was definitely influenced by you and others who fancy about 6782.
Always happy to see your valuable input about vintage Vacheron watches. ;-)

My Vintage - ref 6782 Thunderbird in rare metal

Hi all - I am sharing the reference 6782 Thunderbird in white gold which is extremely rare as far as I know. Most of this watch was made of yellow gold in late 60s. I still remember the day when I acquired this and also when I shared in the other forum so...

Not only it is a rare and beautiful bird...

Do you know how many were made in white gold versus yellow gold? Congrats and enjoy it Best wishes Alkiro

The style is very unusual for the brand ..... I had thought of its authenticity years back. [nt]
