Vacheron Constantin 2897 Dress Rosé 1950s

Vacheron Constantin 2897 – 18k Rose Gold Dress Watch, 1950s

Understated refinement at its finest — this Vacheron Constantin Ref. 2897 from the 1950s is a pure expression of Swiss horological sophistication. Every element of its design speaks to the Maison’s enduring philosophy: timeless beauty through perfect proportion.

Cased in 18k rose gold, the 34 mm silhouette strikes an ideal balance between presence and discretion. The silver sunburst dial, untouched and gracefully aged, is harmoniously complemented by rose gold stick indexes, dauphine hands, and Vacheron’s applied Maltese Cross — all contributing to its warm, monochromatic aesthetic.

At its heart beats the manual Caliber P1007/BS, a fine example of Vacheron’s mid-century watchmaking excellence. With its sub-seconds register at six, this piece demonstrates the meticulous symmetry and craftsmanship that define Geneva’s oldest watchmaker.

Elegant, timeless, and profoundly refined — a true gentleman’s companion from an era when less truly meant more.
