The VC Overseas is definitely my grail watch. To me nothing comes close to it's appeal. Probably the stainless steel version with the blue dial is the one I would choose, very versatile.
I've always considered myself much more of a white metal (i.e. steel, platinum, white gold) guy than a rose/yellow gold guy, but when Vacheron Constantine released the full rose gold Overseas Perpetual Calendar (both blue dial and skeletonised) earlier this year I fell in love. And then VC released this; the rose gold version of my all time favourite watch, the Overseas 4500V blue dial, and I suddenly realised that if I had the money I'd currently be wearing a watch with a full rose gold bracelet, which I honestly never expected to say.
Understand this, I have Rolex full rose gold, and it is not everyday watch. This one above is same kind of that. it is something to admire but not for every day. It is heavy , it is attention seeker. So in steel is way to go
I had a great experience visiting the Vacheron boutique in Beverly Hills. Overseas is my grail, and the matron there realized I was a fan, and actually gave me a huge book and treated me very well. I cannot wait to achieve this grail.
This watch (stainless steel) is a personal grail for me. Certainly blessed to do what I do and don't take it for granted. Thanks for watching and happy new year!
@@TeddyBaldassarre As beautiful as the rose gold VC is, I'd be willing to go with the stainless steel, considering it's half the price of the gold. White gold would also be nice for those that want a gold watch but are not fans of rose gold.
Was very close to buying my second watch but then I found my fathers old watch. Around 30 years old Russian made mechanical "Raketa 2614.H". Round and small - 35mm. Very light blue dial, colden case, date display at 6 o'clock, silver metal band and a little scratched crystal. Love it! Runs a bit badly but I will have it running properly again. So, this will be my second watch. First watch was Casio MTP-1303SG-7AVEF. Bought it for my 17th birthday. 9 years has passed and felt an urge to get deeper into watches. Was looking for Seiko, Tissot, Citizen or Orient. I am not in a hurry. Sometime in 2021 third watch will come.
I’m not really a watch guy. I just admire the craftsmanship of the complicated mechanisms, but this watch is extremely beautiful. The only watch that I admire just for its sheer beauty.
Steel version of this watch is $20,900...gold version is $49,100 on Vacheron website. Personally I think the gold one is amazing, but for $49,000 you could buy the steel Overseas AND a pre-owned Rolex submariner or GMT in yellow gold.
You can do and achieve anything if you really set your everything towards it.. the problem is we want too live eat drink tour and the gold vacheron fall from the sky on our wrist lol
@@444slowitdown I think a 50k watch is definitely attainable but you’d have to prioritise watches above some things unless you’re super rich. Just comes down to how badly you want it
Love the VC Overseas ! Much more than the Nautilus or the Royal Oak. This one in gold is just gorgeous ! The only turn off is the non hacking seconds hand. At this price point it should be a must nowadays. I know that other high luxury brands do it, but still it’s quite absurd.
If I were in the income level that can afford a luxury watch, the Vacheron Constantin Overseas with the blue dial and rose gold would be it! My only nit-picking point would be that the rotor appeared to be in yellow gold, which was a slight distraction from the rose gold case. Not a deal breaker, but I'm surprised a bit that the designers went in this direction.
I just saw me comment high lighted and then saw yours. I agree. It must be on propose. If not could it be like one of those odd rolexes that go through the roof or are VC customers not that type.
In the event that I was in the position to purchase a Vacheron Constantin Overseas. I would go for the Stainless Steel Chronograph. Some say that a person should not spend more than a weeks wage on a timepiece. I agree with that. Considering that the overseas is not hacking I own a watch that will have to be the placeholder for the VC. It's stainless steel, it doesn't hack, It has a blue dial, Not a chronograph, I set it back one minute every Wednesday since it speeds upp about a minute per week. It's price is 0.5 % of the VC Overseas Chronograph. The fact that VC has been in business for 266 years is so remarkably amazing. In my mind, the Overseas perfectly expresses the understated while impressive look, of a true quality timepiece. Thank you for an excellent video.
I think I enjoy reviews of watches that will always be out of my reach more than most. There is no wondering as I watch whether I could get one, no running to Chrono24 to see what they are going for etc. I can simply enjoy looking at what is basically a work of art up close in the same way I admire Fabergé eggs. The fact that these are tiny machines only adds to the wonder of it. ( I kinda love that it doesn’t even hack) it’s like this stands above such “earthly concerns”. Thanks for a bang out way of ending the year Teddy. #myfavoritechannel
The interview of your lady friends was so much fun. I guess certain comments led you to hide it. I hope they were able to not be offended too much. Most people loved their candor. This screams for another edition including fashion watches. So much to learn for us. Thanks for all your work.
I too liked that video. Girls were great sports and candid. Shame vid was taken down. Hope too they were not too offended by some of the trolls commenting on it
I have to have this watch. I always knew I was going to buy a solid 18K holy trinity piece by my 50th birthday. THIS is the watch. I looked at AP Royal Oaks and the Patek Aquanaut, as well as the 42mm Rolex Yacht-Master but NONE OF THOSE COMPARE! Not even CLOSE!!! Three bracelet options, solid 18K rose gold, 60 hour power reserve, and 41mm? This watch is so next level Patek and AP better sit up straight, take notes and stop phoning it in every year...
I was just saying the same thing minus living in a dumpster part lol but man that would be great if they did green, most of my collections have green dials.
Loved this video. I especially enjoyed the marathon analogy. It’s refreshing to see that high end of watch collection/manufacture can be talked about without mentioning the “R” word...!
Everyone keeps comparing the big 3 which makes sense but can’t we love them all? I do! I just got this one, can’t wait to see it. Imo, the best looking Gold watch out there. The limited yellow gold oak chrono with green dial is up there too.
The overseas is my next watch for sure. I’m on the waiting list with the Vacheron Boutique, excellent video, I believe it’s much better than the Nautilas by Patek Philippe and the AP Royal Oak. I really want the gold version, too expensive for now. I also prefer the date only in the Overseas compared to the dual time version. I agree that the hacking seconds should be included and the date font is terrible at this price point. I will end up with the dual time version for that reason. I’m still on the fence on whether to wait or purchase now from the authorized dealer. Thank you for the excellent video.
agreed, I tried it on and it immediately felt and looked amazing, in a way that I couldn't predict by seeing it through glass. The proportions were also perfect on my wrist even though my wrist usually suits 39mm. They have done some design magic over at VC
@Matthew Congreave Yes in Sydney the steel with blue dial and no complications is popular so there was a wait, but not sure how long. The black dual time was available straight away and also looked amazing but I think is a bit thicker
Teddy, great work as always. I own the SS Overseas Chronograph with Blue dial, and it is a great watch. Understated luxury and class. The history of the coy is great. When visiting my Rolex AD, the staff and manager could not believe how good the watch looks, they loved it and said they very rarely see one on a client. But I like the fact that my VC does not attract any bad attention when wearing it in public. The fact that I just want to keep looking at it again and again - I know the purchase was worth it. It will still look great in decades to come. Merry xmas to all.
Beautiful watch, love the versatility with the 3 included straps-one of the reasons I love my panerai so much. Biggest disappointment here is no hacking seconds on a $20k+ (SS) watch…but I still want one 😄
Teddy, thanks for all the amazing content this year! And what a way to end it - with one of my top, top grail watches. Wish you and your family all the best for a great 2021!
Absolutely beautiful, but wayyyyyyy out of my reach. That said, I always appreciate a review letting me "get close" to such a gem. Happy and safe new year!
just traded my black dial Stainless 4500V for one of these and OH MY GOD... the blue dial o that gold, and the heft... I can't ever go back to the stainless...
I just received my V.C. in steel a couple of weeks ago from the boutique in Miami where you and Kevin visited. I purchased mine from Bettina who you have meet. I could not be happier with the Overseas or the service I received. Rolex who?
That is amazing, Robert. They have such a kind staff at that boutique and were very good to us in my time there. What a fantastic choice you made on your newest watch. Enjoy it, my friend!
LOVE the Overseas line and VC in general! The 4500V in steel and blue dial was my grail watch for years and I finally got it last month. Absolutely mesmerizing! I don't think there's any other steel sports watch at any price point that I'd rather have. The gold one looks pretty amazing, though I think I'm more of a steel guy personally. Though as someone else mentioned... a green dial Overseas in gold would have the potential of being an even bigger grail for me. Great video Teddy, awesome that you could get your hands on one for the review. Keep it up!
A stunning watch. Love the brand and the Overseas range. I tried a chronograph version a few weeks ago and found that it sat quite high. This one looks slimmer and one that I would definately consider as the waiting lists on the Royal Oak and Nautilus\Aquanaut put those out of the question.
I'm super glad you brought attention to this watch, I've been eyeing it for ages but I don't have any where close to a disposable fund to get this watch.
Love VC. Although I’m more of a dress watch kind of guy, if I were to buy a luxury sports watch it would be the Overseas. I’m partial to the “inky” black dial option, but I like the blue dial as well.
Vacheron has done a súper watch. I AM not a Golden watch guy, however, this is a real piece of art for any watch fan who does not want to go AP or PP. Thank You for the interesting video. Have a happy new year!!
Love VC and the new Overseas and plan on getting one after I buy my Bathyscaphe, but I just don’t like my sport watches in gold. The blue face is stunning. Good review.
The fit looks very good on your wrist, which has me confused, because I read a lot of scaremongering online about this watch being a no-go for wrists under 7". My wrist is 6.5-6.75"... I tried on the steel 4500v back in 2020, took a photo on the rubber and when I look at it now, it seems fine. Bought a couple of other (smaller) watches, including a DJ36 in the meantime, but the siren call of the 4500v is still strong. I may have to try it again sometime soon before taking the plunge!
there is just something different about Vacheron compare to the other "Holy Trinity". the rose gold and blue dial is absolutely eye catching. its so bold yet it is still classy as the brand represents. Great review Teddy, so glad i found this channel.
This watch make my Daydate 40 rosegold olive dial looks like a peasant watch. Probably gonna trade for this Vacheron soon, since mine has gone up to almost 60k
Too bad, I don’t have $49K in liquidity to acquire the watch. Being $10K more than a Rolex Day Date, I would go for the VC! I’ll just continue to wear my 1982 Seiko Quartz and not worry about being accosted.
The ss overseas doesnt stand out like the nautilus and royal oak.. its the kind of watch u have to see up close to really appreciate. With that said the pink gold overseas definitely sets itself apart from the pack and looks incredible.
Absolutely mouthwatering and a genuine upscale every day wear! Never the less for me my crowning piece of horological wonder would have to be the Breguet ref. 7800 classique la musicale (chiming out Rossini’s ‘ The thieving magpie’) in rose gold. Classical music meets classical horology.
I have a black dial AP 15500 and recently obtained the VC Overseas dual time blue dial. Maybe I’m in the honeymoon phase, but I prefer the VC over the AP.
Had a VC watch on at a "jetset" nightclub once, nobody noticed it - whereas my friends normal no-date sub got a lot of attention. People just know Rolex even tho it isn't THAT special or luxury
There's no getting around the fact that if you're the type to hope people notice your watch there is no substitute for Rolex. It's the only Swiss watch brand with 100% worldwide name recognition after all. That said, if someone noticed my VC (assuming in this hypothetical scenario I could afford a VC) I would much rather talk to that person about my watch than 90% of the people that would recognise a Rolex.
Nice time piece. I’m looking for a tennis beater as it goes and this sporting wrist candy fits the bill. How resistant is it to vibration and shocks? Being a sports watch can it be worn for biking trails and blacksmith work?
Great watch! I would love the gold! I think this is the best integrated bracelet watch out there. Also the quick change system is amazing and gives the watch some flexibility. Also the lacquer is gorgeous!! Huge fan of VC I think they're the member of the holy trinity that kinda flies under the radar. This version of the overseas is my favorite, also I'd love the original vintage 222. In terms of future reviews, I'd like to see a review of the Gorilla outlaw drift. I love the star wheel display and this is their first circular case watch so I'd like your thoughts on this. This is one of the few micro brands that are doing original designs and even if it's not everybody's cup of tea, I like the fact that they're doing something different. All the best for 2021.
Happy new year from South Carolina. I am a buyer and fan of micro brands but I love Tudor, Breitling, and Rolex ( but can't justify $10-12k on a watch) I have been to my local Rolex dealer in Pawleys Island and got a full sales experience trying on every watch I liked. I loved the Sky Dweller blue dial on white gold and $47,000 price tag had me buy a lottery ticket lol. My realistic choice would be a no date blue dial 41mm or Explorer 2 41mm. Blue dial Rolex looks great to me. I am thinking a Explorer will be the Rolex released this year. Thanks for your knowledge and insight. I think it was you who had me get Orient Bambino and Vostok Komandirski K39 warches
Thank you Teddy for the VC Overseas review. I couldn’t agree more that Vacheron is a brand that flys a bit under the radar when compared to AP and Patek but this is what makes it so appealing to me. The Overseas 4500v is on my grail list and when I win the lottery I might just pick one up. For 2021 I’d love to see fewer Rolex reviews and more from brands like Zenith, Universal Geneve & Tudor.
as a young man in his 20s and getting a first and only one. Would you recom Rolex Sub or VC Overseas 4500v Stainless? To me its hard cause I know the sub is most copied watch with fakes etc and a lot of people owing one. the overseas and vc is not talked about that much. i like the sub for being very durable, at the moment I am looking at the vacheron constantin overseas and for some reason that watch is calling my name. I have a pretty active lifestyle so a durable and versatile watch would be ideal. I like VC cause its not recognized by many people and only a few will know that brand compared to like rolex, ap, patek. I feel like wearing a rolex draws unesscary attention to me since its to most well known / popular luxury brand out there.
If you care what people think, buy Rolex. If you dont, buy Vacheron. The Vacheron is a different pedigree to the Rolex but doesnt carry the powerful branding of Rolex.
I'm thinking of getting the sinn 556i, the old versions had the eta 2824-2 movement wich is very reliable and easy to service. But the new ones have a Sellita SW200-1 movement, do you think this is a downgrade and should I still buy it?
Damn, people who got the pink gold version when this video came out absolutely cashed! Teddy, do you have any idea as to why the price rose almost 3x this last year?
I love this watch and I’m thinking of getting it (ss) but isn’t the movement a bit too simple? I don’t get why VC wouldn’t give this a more advanced movement.
My dream watch. I'd rather have the overseas than a royal oak or even an nautalis
Ah, I see you’re a man of culture as well
I perfer the look of the royal oak out of the three..but i assume the vc and pp movements are better
Me too. Heck I even like the Polo S
I like the Zenith El Primero
Same here
Out of the ”Holy Trinity” Vacheron is by far my favorite.

Teddy, great work as always. I own the SS Overseas Chronograph with Blue dial, and it is a great watch. Understated luxury and class. The history of the coy is great.
When visiting my Rolex AD, the staff and manager could not believe how good the watch looks, they loved it and said they very rarely see one on a client.
But I like the fact that my VC does not attract any bad attention when wearing it in public.
The fact that I just want to keep looking at it again and again - I know the purchase was worth it. It will still look great in decades to come. Merry xmas to all.
Such a beauty!
@@IDKline SIMP!!!
Definitely it is!!, but with that gold and blue colors, you have to be ready for all the attention you will get!
@@lastwhtknight3002 yeah a person with a Bugatti and a vacheron constantin is a classy phucker!!! 😎
Maltese design on the, great
@Courtney Ryan what makes this a great men’s watch in your opinion?
Very nice review, passionate and hit’s all the key features of the VC! The SS is on my short list! Thanks Teddy!
Beautiful watch, love the versatility with the 3 included straps-one of the reasons I love my panerai so much. Biggest disappointment here is no hacking seconds on a $20k+ (SS) watch…but I still want one 😄
Personally I'd rather have the Cartier Santos de Cartier medium in yellow or rose gold over this VC but dont get me wrong this is a stunning watch.
The Santos de Cartier is the best watch Cartier makes currently in my opinion. It certainly is my favorite
Teddy, thanks for all the amazing content this year! And what a way to end it - with one of my top, top grail watches. Wish you and your family all the best for a great 2021!
Absolutely beautiful, but wayyyyyyy out of my reach. That said, I always appreciate a review letting me "get close" to such a gem. Happy and safe new year!
just traded my black dial Stainless 4500V for one of these and OH MY GOD... the blue dial o that gold, and the heft... I can't ever go back to the stainless...
This and de 222 are my favorites expensive watches.
I just received my V.C. in steel a couple of weeks ago from the boutique in Miami where you and Kevin visited. I purchased mine from Bettina who you have meet. I could not be happier with the Overseas or the service I received. Rolex who?
That is amazing, Robert. They have such a kind staff at that boutique and were very good to us in my time there. What a fantastic choice you made on your newest watch. Enjoy it, my friend!
I’ve been to that boutique in Miami and was able to try on both the Overseas and the Patrimony. Both are exquisite.
@@eyeheartsushi2212 Hope that one day one of those watches makes a home on your wrist. Going back to the boutique at the end of January.
@@roberthiers5606 Thank you. What’s your next acquisition?
@@eyeheartsushi2212 I going German.
Happy new year Teddy Baldassarre. And to everybody else.
LOVE the Overseas line and VC in general! The 4500V in steel and blue dial was my grail watch for years and I finally got it last month. Absolutely mesmerizing! I don't think there's any other steel sports watch at any price point that I'd rather have. The gold one looks pretty amazing, though I think I'm more of a steel guy personally. Though as someone else mentioned... a green dial Overseas in gold would have the potential of being an even bigger grail for me. Great video Teddy, awesome that you could get your hands on one for the review. Keep it up!
Gorgeous watch. Best looking bracelet in the business. One drawback: scratch and ding magnet.
That shot where the watch is hanging on the edge of a table really gives me anxious 😂 great video and shots man.
No watches were harmed in the making of this film.
@@TeddyBaldassarre I gotta know did you put a pillow underneath it just in case? 😂
Great video! I also thought ohhh no when I saw the shot.
A stunning watch. Love the brand and the Overseas range. I tried a chronograph version a few weeks ago and found that it sat quite high. This one looks slimmer and one that I would definately consider as the waiting lists on the Royal Oak and Nautilus\Aquanaut put those out of the question.
What a beauty! This watch is definitively one of the best sports watches in the world. Very well chosen. Very well presented!
Really love the windrose compass design on the rotor! Such a cool detail!
Thanks Teddy, I love this watch and are going to add it to my collection. That uncluttered blue dial is superb.
The Overseas is the perfect blend of Patek & Audemars. It's the handsome, understated prince.
I'm super glad you brought attention to this watch, I've been eyeing it for ages but I don't have any where close to a disposable fund to get this watch.
Love VC. Although I’m more of a dress watch kind of guy, if I were to buy a luxury sports watch it would be the Overseas. I’m partial to the “inky” black dial option, but I like the blue dial as well.
I love that watch. Im not a gold strap guy but I must say, VC have done a great job with this watch. Great vid Ted 😀
What a fantastic introduction about the brand, no doubt it’s more than that but you hit the nail on it
Vacheron has done a súper watch. I AM not a Golden watch guy, however, this is a real piece of art for any watch fan who does not want to go AP or PP.
Thank You for the interesting video. Have a happy new year!!
To this day Sarb009 is still the most stunning blue dial watch ever!!
Love VC and the new Overseas and plan on getting one after I buy my Bathyscaphe, but I just don’t like my sport watches in gold. The blue face is stunning. Good review.
The fit looks very good on your wrist, which has me confused, because I read a lot of scaremongering online about this watch being a no-go for wrists under 7". My wrist is 6.5-6.75"... I tried on the steel 4500v back in 2020, took a photo on the rubber and when I look at it now, it seems fine. Bought a couple of other (smaller) watches, including a DJ36 in the meantime, but the siren call of the 4500v is still strong. I may have to try it again sometime soon before taking the plunge!
Vacherons blue dial is truly stunning!💙
there is just something different about Vacheron compare to the other "Holy Trinity". the rose gold and blue dial is absolutely eye catching. its so bold yet it is still classy as the brand represents. Great review Teddy, so glad i found this channel.
This watch make my Daydate 40 rosegold olive dial looks like a peasant watch.
Probably gonna trade for this Vacheron soon, since mine has gone up to almost 60k
Too bad, I don’t have $49K in liquidity to acquire the watch. Being $10K more than a Rolex Day Date, I would go for the VC!
I’ll just continue to wear my 1982 Seiko Quartz and not worry about being accosted.
The ss overseas doesnt stand out like the nautilus and royal oak.. its the kind of watch u have to see up close to really appreciate. With that said the pink gold overseas definitely sets itself apart from the pack and looks incredible.
Painfully Gorgeous !... this watch oozes quality , class, and style. my most second favorite after the everose Sky-Dweller.
thank you. great review.
I’m with you. I can’t really qualify why but I would go VC over PP or AP 95% of the time!
Absolutely mouthwatering and a genuine upscale every day wear!
Never the less for me my crowning piece of horological wonder would have to be the Breguet ref. 7800 classique la musicale (chiming out Rossini’s ‘ The thieving magpie’) in rose gold. Classical music meets classical horology.
I agree with everything you've said, it's certainly a beautiful watch to aspire at least in stainless steel version.
I have a black dial AP 15500 and recently obtained the VC Overseas dual time blue dial. Maybe I’m in the honeymoon phase, but I prefer the VC over the AP.
Love VC. The rose gold and blue pop.
This video introduced me to Vacheron yet I come back to it almost once a month to drool over those macros of that beautiful dial 🤤🤤🤤
Had a VC watch on at a "jetset" nightclub once, nobody noticed it - whereas my friends normal no-date sub got a lot of attention. People just know Rolex even tho it isn't THAT special or luxury
Isn't that the greatest feeling? Those who knows, they knows 👌🏼😊
There's no getting around the fact that if you're the type to hope people notice your watch there is no substitute for Rolex. It's the only Swiss watch brand with 100% worldwide name recognition after all.
That said, if someone noticed my VC (assuming in this hypothetical scenario I could afford a VC) I would much rather talk to that person about my watch than 90% of the people that would recognise a Rolex.
Nice time piece. I’m looking for a tennis beater as it goes and this sporting wrist candy fits the bill. How resistant is it to vibration and shocks? Being a sports watch can it be worn for biking trails and blacksmith work?
Resistant enough. I'm pretty sure the primary reason VC included a rubber strap is so you can wear it while blacksmithing.
Precioso reloj!! Es el sueño de cualquiera. Happy New Year Teddy!! Saludos desde Lima Perú
Thank you Teddy for posting variety of brands in your channel. I appreciate the honest reviews instead of kissing *%% a particular brand.
This truly is a stunning watch. Beautiful up close, and still flies under the radar. Fan of the white dial and steel over here!
Such a gorgeous watch. That color gold with the blue dial is exquisite!
Great watch! I would love the gold! I think this is the best integrated bracelet watch out there. Also the quick change system is amazing and gives the watch some flexibility. Also the lacquer is gorgeous!! Huge fan of VC I think they're the member of the holy trinity that kinda flies under the radar. This version of the overseas is my favorite, also I'd love the original vintage 222. In terms of future reviews, I'd like to see a review of the Gorilla outlaw drift. I love the star wheel display and this is their first circular case watch so I'd like your thoughts on this. This is one of the few micro brands that are doing original designs and even if it's not everybody's cup of tea, I like the fact that they're doing something different. All the best for 2021.
Happy new year from South Carolina. I am a buyer and fan of micro brands but I love Tudor, Breitling, and Rolex ( but can't justify $10-12k on a watch) I have been to my local Rolex dealer in Pawleys Island and got a full sales experience trying on every watch I liked. I loved the Sky Dweller blue dial on white gold and $47,000 price tag had me buy a lottery ticket lol. My realistic choice would be a no date blue dial 41mm or Explorer 2 41mm. Blue dial Rolex looks great to me. I am thinking a Explorer will be the Rolex released this year. Thanks for your knowledge and insight. I think it was you who had me get Orient Bambino and Vostok Komandirski K39 warches
Glad we're back onto watches after the dumpster fire.
The non-hacking movement really bothers me, but it does look great in rose gold.
That's done on purpose to avoid wear and tare.
@@robbertblok5612 Even if it's intentional, I don't like non-hacking movements.
Thank you Teddy for the VC Overseas review. I couldn’t agree more that Vacheron is a brand that flys a bit under the radar when compared to AP and Patek but this is what makes it so appealing to me. The Overseas 4500v is on my grail list and when I win the lottery I might just pick one up.
For 2021 I’d love to see fewer Rolex reviews and more from brands like Zenith, Universal Geneve & Tudor.
My grail!!! Still prefer the steel version in blue though
Same! Blue stainless steel is the way I would go no question.
New year’s miracle! Just finished walked my dog in the cold northeast winter
thanks for watching, Henry!
Did you find $49K in the snow ❄️ to buy the VC?
@@reedgrabowski8314 I wish lol
as a young man in his 20s and getting a first and only one. Would you recom Rolex Sub or VC Overseas 4500v Stainless? To me its hard cause I know the sub is most copied watch with fakes etc and a lot of people owing one. the overseas and vc is not talked about that much. i like the sub for being very durable, at the moment I am looking at the vacheron constantin overseas and for some reason that watch is calling my name. I have a pretty active lifestyle so a durable and versatile watch would be ideal. I like VC cause its not recognized by many people and only a few will know that brand compared to like rolex, ap, patek. I feel like wearing a rolex draws unesscary attention to me since its to most well known / popular luxury brand out there.
If you care what people think, buy Rolex. If you dont, buy Vacheron.
The Vacheron is a different pedigree to the Rolex but doesnt carry the powerful branding of Rolex.
I like it a lot, but the quartz version is $17k now. I often struggle to justify anything over 2k for quartz.
I'm thinking of getting the sinn 556i, the old versions had the eta 2824-2 movement wich is very reliable and easy to service. But the new ones have a Sellita SW200-1 movement, do you think this is a downgrade and should I still buy it?
Awesome video man. Watching this wearing my blue steel 4500v 😎
0:10
Rolex, Patek Philippe, Tudor, Omega Seamasters
finally on Vacheron!
My grandfather passed down one of VC's watches to me. The mechanics need to be fixed up, but it may be well worth it.
Damn, people who got the pink gold version when this video came out absolutely cashed! Teddy, do you have any idea as to why the price rose almost 3x this last year?
I love this watch and I’m thinking of getting it (ss) but isn’t the movement a bit too simple? I don’t get why VC wouldn’t give this a more advanced movement.
That’s a perfect watch right there, well seen and chosen Teddy
