Vacheron Constantin 18k Disco Volante 1950s
When we hold this piece in our hands it simply leaves us speechless. So many details that it is almost difficult to mention them all. Hidden lugs, stunning Clous De Paris (hobnail) bezel finishing, a cream dial with a clean center and a matching Clous De Paris chapter ring with applied indices, and a matching 'pencil' handset with bluish colored second hand... this watch is simply a poem.
On the inside of the case back we also find the „key of Geneva“ stamp with the the number 5 which tells us that the case was produced in Geneva by „Croisier, Georges“ which produced wach cases from 1934 to 1991.
