Vacheron Constantin Historiques American 1921

Vacheron Constantin's Historiques American 1921, reference 1100S/000G-H175, has a white gold case measuring 36.5 mm across and 7.41 mm thick. The distinctive cushion shape carries the crown at the left, set between 1 and 2 o'clock, so the time can be read without turning the wrist. A sapphire crystal covers the silver dial, and a matching crystal caseback shows the manual-winding calibre 4400 AS, which carries the Hallmark of Geneva. Small seconds appear on the dial, and the movement stores 65 hours of power reserve. The watch is fitted on a calf leather strap closed by a white gold pin buckle. The case carries a modest 30 metre water resistance rating, fitting for a dress watch of this kind.
