RARE* 1950s Vacheron Constantin Fancy Lugs | Chain Lugs | 18Kr Pink Gold | Ref.4728 | 36mm | Unpolished
Sold Out
Among the elite trio of Swiss watchmakers, Vacheron Constantin often remains the most discreetly appreciated. Yet its history is rich with technical brilliance and timeless design.
This mid-century gem from the early 1950s captures that spirit perfectly, combining craftsmanship, elegance, and a touch of the unexpected.
With only a handful known to exist, most featuring the distinctive honeycomb dial, this example stands apart with its cleaner, more minimalist design, offering a refined aesthetic.
The sculptural chain-like lugs lend it a confident wrist presence, understated, yet unmistakably sophisticated. A rare find from an era where Vacheron quietly led through refinement rather than fanfare.
Powered by Vacheron’s in-house manual-winding P454/5B, it embodies the quiet sophistication that has made the maison one of the most respected names in haute horlogerie.
CONDITION
The case is very sharp and unpolished, the dial has a warm patina over it, with minimal aging spots, more pronounced towards the right side.
The crown is original and unsigned.
