Love this watch!!
The VC Patrimony is one of my favorite dressier watches, in this exact combination, so elegant and timeless.
I prefer this one more than the 85180 automatic with date, the white date is really an eyesore for me.
If this one had a see through case back it would be very very high on my to get list. It's almost a waste to have the geneva seal and not showcase it

VC Patrimony ref 81180 in Pink Gold, Grey dial
Hi, Some time ago I had the opportunity to see the Patrimony ref 81180 in Pink Gold with grey dial... I find this watch to be 40 mm of elegance and purity! The case is 6.79 mm thick. The Pink Gold case adds a lot of class and the grey dial gives the watch...
Hey - thanks for the congrats! I didn't even notice! In celebration I'll hit as many
boutiques as I can in NYC this weekend! After this post I'm really hoping to see the gold grey face patrimony in the metal!
Hope you get a chance to see this one in real!
It is even better in real! :) Best Blomman
We had a lunch GTG to look at a grey dial 81180
whl, MB, Respo, Gary and I met. Besides great conversation were great VC. The plat 81180p grey was brought by Bill. We discussed that watch vs the current platinum traditionelle. respo and I ended up wanting the Trad and instead Respo got the EP 81180 and...
Joe, sounds like you guys had a great time! :)
Yes the grey/PG combination is really gorgeous! :) I find myself circkling around the Patrimony more and more often... Best Blomman
The Patrimony 81180 is a great watch....
in any color combination, and I agree that more people should seek it out for their collection. Bill
Great points Joe
I have the Traditionelle in Platinum (82172) and your are so right about the markers - they really do pop in any light. I was very ambivalent about the grey until I saw it the metal... then I was hooked.
I tried the PT version a few days ago...
And it's a perfect dress watch. I was surprised too about the caseback but taking account the small diameter of the movement I think VC took the right decision. Constantin
PT? Any photos to share, Constantin?
I think they could have made an open case back if like on the Ultra-Fine 1955. But that would have required complete change of the case... Best Blomman ...
Your wrist shot sealed the deal...
...IMHO. That last photo...it looks perfect on your wrist, Blomman. I love VC's gray dials. I came oh so close to getting the gray dial platinum 81180 (Bill knows this from painful experience). I would have gotten it if another 81180 had not come along. ;...
I would be looking more ....
On my wrist than on my computer screen if I had one! ;) Thank you, respo. Yes, I feel I am circling dangerously close now... Best Blomman
Beauty and Royality
Vacheron Constantain this year entered 261 years of Royaity and the Patrimony has got the spirit and history of the Fifties era. Such a wonderful piece of class and history.
Fits you wonderfully!
Branching out to new brands? Great, classical watch and I can only compliment you on your choice!
Not yet....
Yes, VC is a brand I have been looking at for quite some time and would love to add.... But currently no VC in my watch box. Best Blomman
Beautiful dress watch
Glowing with warmth Love it , thanks for sharing Blomman Cheers Robin
Indeed it is!
If / when I go into VC, this one would be an excellent starting point! Best Blomman

Must admit that even with the closed case back....
This is one of my favorite version of the Patrimony! But I still don't have any VC in the Collection.... Best Blomman
