Hi Jerome Thank you 👏
I went for the 40mm that doesn't wear big at all. It is true that square/cushion watches wear bigger but not this one becaue of the height being just 7.4mm. It wears much smaller than a Panerai 42mm as a comparison. I think it is very versatile in terms of straps but the existing one is very cool and casual too I think, I like it more than the alligator one of the Rose Gold. I can only recommend it💥 I think there is a lot of value + Geneva seal so better even than a Patek 😁 The strength of this watch is really elegance with a twist. No matter how many watches I have this will always be unique because of the layout / case
Vacheron Constantin HISTORIQUES AMERICAN 1921 👏 quick review💥
I have just received by Vacheron Constantin HISTORIQUES AMERICAN 1921 and wow 👏💥 what a watch. I tried the than Rose Gold Hitoriques in 2015 and even the New York Limited Edition but, for a reason or another, I didn't go for it. My brother got the RG and ...
thank you 👏absolutely in love
with it, tried it and saw it many times but never pulled the trigger, white gold + low euro made it perfect
thank you! was inspired by your pics and advice in the other topic 👏
was really nice to see both the LF and the VP in live pics. If I will go for the LF in the future will also be the classic but so far am super happy with the VC!
Congratulations on this beautiful 1921!
So I see you solved your VC vs LF dilemma pretty quickly. And with great success, I must add. Enjoy!
yes really :) the LF option for me was only the Ecole so after gatheting some
further advice in the forum I decided for the VC because is just 💥and elegant
thank you, a big love that started years ago ..the WG version is specactular in the metal
very thin and the new Italian strap is über cool
🥰
Dear Christian, Many thanks for the beautiful pictures and the review. This is one watch which also interests me quite a bit - and I’m thinking more and more of pulling the trigger on it! Did you try both sizes and which one did you select? The cushion/sq...

Thanks for detailed reply, agreed that it is quite unique, and the thinness and Geneva seal are additional value for sure. Also agree that certainly many a strap would fit it very well. Something to look at in more details during the next visit to the bou...
The best.
Immaculate choice . Thank you very much for the pretty pictures, I am likewise just waiting for the right moment in time to purchase one myself - in that exact configuration . Cheers, Filip
Absolutely magnificent! And well captured!
I've seen a lot of pictures of this VC (of course) but never before have I notised that the small seconds isn't angled like the rest of the dial, but vertical in the "normal" way. Can't believed I missed that! ☺️
Ah the 1921..
Becoming quintessential representation of VC. I have pined for one for awhile. The not wearing dressy watches much plus different orientations of the time and seconds dials has given me pause. That being said about once a month I try to convince myself I ...
😁haha the orientation might get a bit to get used too
day one so I can't tell but so far is great. I am always wearing a suit or a blazer so fits very well or me. Execution etc. is TOP. 11/10
Perfect choice and congratulations
Great wrist shots. Liked 1st and last ones. Now you just need to go behind steering wheel to feel the time. Enjoy the beauty. Cheers ! Gautam
thank you Gautam ! pics would be nicer but they do get reduced in size... truth to be told I don't drive 🏎😁
but I am always at the computer so it still helps to read it !
Congratulations on your purchase of an excellent (albeit quirky) timepiece. You won’t regret it !
Fyi, i had to wait for 6 mths to get mine, but well worth the wait in the end. Am waiting for my custom strap to arrive - to see how it looks.
oh 6 months not so quick but for today's standards not so bad..how long did it take to get used to the dial ? 😁
I saw your notification via email and initially I misread that it took you 6 months to get used to it ! I love the OEM strap ..fits very well
It took me a month to get used to it when telling time. On setting the time, it still gets me even today, after about 5 months.
And yes i love the brown strap - super comfortable. Enjoy yours !
Indeed it’s special and functional.
I also learned that it prevents water from getting in through the crown when caught in a rain if worn on left wrist. Definitely unique like no other. Loving it.
A wonderful and timeless acquisition!
Many congrats for this superb piece. For me your WG version is the most desirable one. Wear it in best health ☺️ Thomas
