ABOUT THIS WATCH: 

MANUFACTURER: Vacheron & Constantin

REFERENCE: 4073

YEAR: 1947

SERIAL: 29xxxx

CASE: The 34mm solid 18kt yellow gold case is in good shape. The case has a light polish in its lifetime yet the case is incredibly strong. The hallmarks are crisp, easily identified and remain quite deep.  The caseback illustrates the original brushed finish. The case is 2x signed and matching. The crown and crystal have been replaced. 

DIAL:  An original silver engraved, enamel dial. The maisons signature "Vacheron & Constantin Geneve", the subsidiary seconds markers and outer, partial railroad minute track were done in engraved enamel. Noted throughout the entirety of the dial we can observe light, even spotting. The spotting is more or less visible depending on the viewing angle and lighting. It is of my opinion that the dial has not been cleaned in the past. 

MOVEMENT: Vacheron manually wound caliber 453. Vacheron's finishing prowess that they had come to be known for by the mid twentieth century is on full display as we see a myriad of finishing techniques including cotes de Genève, pearlage, anglage and black polishing.  The movement was serviced in 07/2025. The watch will come with a one year mechanical warranty dated from 07/2025.
