As you must know by now, we are big fans of great design and frequently celebrate in our posts great condition and great aesthetics in our curated selection of watches. The current watch reaches another level of beauty, class, and sophistication than we typically have the privilege to offer.

Please enjoy our photo journal of this stunning 18K YG Vacheron & Constantin automatic with fully skeletonized movement circa 1995 with integral 18K YG basket weave bracelet. This is reference # 43030 and features a 33.5mm diameter low profile case with sapphire crystal display front and back. Complete with its fine condition quilted texture basket weave bracelet with fold over signed clasp that is adjustable to fit a 7 1/4-7 1/2″ wrist. Vacheron is known for this basket weave bracelet which has a pleasing puffy quilted depth without excessive weight.

The 36 jewel movement is caliber 206J-0 and has been skeletonized and engraved with meticulous detail. Note the engraved pattern on the rotor visible from the front of the watch, and the Vacheron Maltese cross logo and brand signatures of the mainspring barrel. The outer bezel of the case is further engraved with a decorative pattern that mimics the texture of the bracelet.

We couldn’t be more enthusiastic about this watch. It is rich and elegant on the wrist. In any gathering, this is a show piece that will stand up to, and we think impress the wearer of watches valued at 100s of thousands of dollars.

This fine watch has been safely stashed away for some period of time and has developed a warm and rich patina. It comes complete with original papers dated 1995. Of course guaranteed genuine and offered with our 1 year warranty of accurate time keeping and operation.

We invite you to visit our shop and see this beauty in person. We expect if a skeleton watch is on your radar, this is one that must be seen in person.
