Vacheron Constantin

is not true....

Watch manufacturers should listen to the market and collectors.....

don't you agree??

Cheers

which Patrimony sells the most... the manual or the automatic?

Yes the red 12 would be perfect IMO...
For some subliminal reason I'm always
attracted by the red marks on dial
like Rolex single or double red inscriptions
Thank you for sharing another pieces to dream of

Would like to see what would be the aesthetical outcome of a Red 12 on this dial...

May someone do a small photoshop work?



Best, my friend.

I am going to a VC dinner tonight and I hope to see some of these there as well.  But I must admit at the moment I am blinded by the American 1921 (which has the manual movement!).  When the 1921 is in the room, I see no other.  My plan is to wear something special to keep myself distracted.  We'll see if that works...LOL.

Thanks for the great post.

that it is time to start saving so you can buy the 1921 my friend....

There are three wathces I am seriously in lust with right now, but I have to keep my wallet closed for a while.  Darn it!

respo

I will not... but what are friends for anyway???

Cheers

I mean the 1921...

A superb watch, very pleasant to wear.

One of my very few favourite in RG.

Let us know, my friend!

Best,

Nicolas

...but curiously, VC offers a couple in pink or rose gold that really speak to me...unfortunately. LOL.

I didn't just see it this night, I also tried it, and I fell under the charm...

If VC decided to make it in platinum, it would really be difficult to not resist, but as it is, in RG, it is already a evileque watch!



Best,

666.

VC should use PT rotor for the PT version

Woud be cool, indeed.

The RG CR with the Red 12 is evilesque!

Lucky Guy!

Best, and thanks for your input.

Nicolas

I wonder if the extra weight of platinum would be problematic for the correct operation of the automatic winding system. It would certainly be problematic for the affordability of the watch!

Thanks for sharing.

It's my favorite piece of those that you present in your post.  The platinum Chronometre Royal is lovely, if a bit icy for my taste.  I admire its pristine beauty despite the overall chilly aesthetic it exhibits.  The movement displays some much needed warmth and dynamism IMO.

Cheers,

Daos

I'm more and more impressed by these special pieces from VC.

My absolute greatest shock was when I saw the Minute Repeater skeleton, in platinum: It was a real REVELATION, to me.

As for the VC Chronomètre Royal, I love a lot this cold understated look, it gives some piece to my tortured brain.



And some more beats to my heart...

Best, Sister.

Nicolas

the design of the face, the center seconds.

But very sad it's 1. not a remontage manuel, and 2. Even if it was no.1, it's size is that 1mm away from my elusive border....

Just guess that VC still continues to elude me, time and time again!

Now , where is my Patrimony contemporaine from the Collection Excellence Platine? No complain for that one, but it's just the same as the amount of platinum mines compared to gold mines!

Merci for the account and great snaps!

Stephen

without being over-bearing. Send it to me for testing and safe keeping!

Best, and Bonne année my friend!
