Welcome to the forum KK...
If you could take a picture of your VC and share it here that would be great.
One aspect of VC watches that I really like is the sound of the click
when winding the watch. While simple round VC watches from the 40's are

with premiums paid for special lugs or fancy cases), they are not all
too common. What is interesting is that VC back then offered many
variations of dials that they put in any particular case.

Here is a picture you sent me...
Just so everyone knows what the watch we are talking about is: The reference number would be a four digit number on the inside of the case back in a watch from this time period. The annoying thing is that VC was very inconsistent in engraving the referenc...

Hi i realised that i do have a exact same watch as the one shown in the picture. Its from 1940s and manual winding. Funny thing is that when i wind it, it feels like a pocket watch movement. ( can feel the tension and "loud" clicking sound). Is it the sam...
