When Vacheron Constantin was
established, watch and jewelry
making were closely linked,
delicately crafted in gold, watch
cases were often embellished with
gem stones. The present bracelet
w atch is a rare example and the dial
is concealed beneath a gem-set
flower. It is also interesting to note
that the dial, case and bracelet
is all stamped for Vacheron and
Constantin.
