(SOLD) VACHERON CONSTANTIN 43005 18K Mens Vintage Historiques Automatic Cushion Braided Woven Bracelet Yellow Gold

Description

REMARKS: SOLD, PLEASE INQUIRE FOR FUTURE ORDER.

Luxurious and classic Vacheron & Constantin 18K Solid Gold Woven Bracelet Automatic Mens Wristwatch with Reference 43005/206 and the wonderful Caliber K1120 movement inside.  The 18K solid gold bracelet is simply a work-of-art with its basket-weave pattern and even the entire case and dial has been deeply chase-engraved to match this pattern.  This style of bracelet was only produced in small limited runs in the 1950-60s by Vacheron & Constantin and this watch based on the reference number 43005/206 was made in the early 1990s when V&C decided to re-issue solid gold watches with woven bracelets.  Even the dial is solid 18K gold so this watch is certainly one of the finest Swiss watches one will ever see.  This Historiques 43005/206 with its cushion shaped case is a classic design for Vacheron & Constantin, and inside the Caliber K1120 movement is great with its 21ct solid gold-rimmed automatic rotor and thin-profile.  The 18K solid gold buckle has ‘maltese-cross’ insignia on the clasp, it is stamped with the maltese cross hallmark inside the clasp as well.  On the side of the case, as well inside the caseback there are Swiss 18K stamps and Vacheron Constantin hallmarks clearly stamped.
