Some favourable comments … "... Against all odds, of the three new watches in the fresh, young line inspired by a watch the brand made in 1956 – the Self-Winding, the Day-Date, and the Complete Calendar – it is the Day-Date that has crystallized as the fa...

Beautiful Design and Dial

Indeed the Fifty Six is a Design that adds to the Glory of the Vacheron Constantin . It`s a Modern Spirit rather than Historiq one . The Dial In particular is Gorgeous . Enjoy it .

Excellent choice

Thanks

1921 in platinum is very beautiful.
Good choice!

This is the one I'd go for in the FIFTY-SIX range right now too...
Congratulations
