Even this reference can still be found at
a reasonable price I think.
Vintage VC prices aren’t as crazy as vintage PP’s!

Vacheron Constantin ref. 4178
Just an example of a wonderful timepiece found online. Wishing you all a great weekend! Best, Emmanuel credit: Hodinkee ...
Quite charming
I recently came across the late 90s historiques reissue which is very similar and can generally be had for less than a modern calatrava, just as a reference point.

A fine selection of examples,
but my favorite would be the one photographed by Hodinkee (during Rolliefest 2025). Best, Emmanuel
Beautiful!
The patina on the case is amazing. I had a 36mm teardrop lug Vacheron with a textured black dial. The hour markers were blue, red, violet. This type of thing is a stroke of luck. Anyone thinking of polishing that case, well I don't want to say anything in...
I'm 100% with you concerning anyone who would consider
polishing this case! ;-) Best, Emmanuel
This discussion makes me think
of a wonderful untouched 4178 I had some years ago and think of often. It was a difficult to part with but financed a trip of a lifetime so I'd do it again without hesitation. ...
