This model was originally released in 1972 and Vacheron Constanitin is well known to re-release historic models in their Historiques series. These vintage reissues have become some of the most sought after models in their catalog, for very good reason. This case design is absolutely the most comfortable watch I have ever worn.  The case back has a soft curvature that forms to the wrist perfectly.  It is not a large case by any means but has amazing wrist presence due to the heft and weight of the 18 karat white gold case.  This thing screams subtle luxury and flies under the radar in most company. However, when a connoisseur recognizes it it will certainly strike up conversation.
