What We Love
A wonderfully quirky and playful addition to our curation, this Vacheron Constantin pocket watch is crafted almost entirely from aluminium, weighing in at just 20 grams on the scales. Pieces like this were typically presented as long-service awards from the late 1940s through to the early 1960s, most often to those in mining or metalworking industries, usually accompanied by engraved casebacks reflecting their service.
Despite its lightweight construction, the movement is beautifully finished and a pleasure to admire, with this example remaining in excellent condition. The Breguet numerals, paired with the clean, understated dial design, come together effortlessly.
All in all, this is a subtle, insider’s kind of piece, one that quietly stands out to those who truly know what they’re looking at.
What You Should Know
There are signs of wear across the case consistent with careful use over the years. The dial shows a slightly lighter area just to the right of the 8 numeral and another to the left of the 4, along with some light marking around the centre post.
We do not offer a mechanical warranty on pocket watches; however, this example is currently running and keeping time.
