New 2016 Vacheron Overseas SS/SS In The Wild

Recommended Posts

Hopefully will see this on a wrist in the new year ...I am in two minds as I do prefer the old textured dial vs this new version, especially the black version. However the new date window placement is good and the finish seems pretty good ... not a VC expert , this would be my first so interested what the pros think of this new rep ... now available on stainless or rubber ... mix and mach ... site pics always leave me guessing meh ... so hopefully see a 'live one' ... pros chome in looks pretty accurate .. "best edition' as usual ..

 

Ref and good pics of the new VCO here ... https://monochrome-w...4500v-sihh2016/

Think your half right ... the 6 and 12 in the side by side are both gens from article ... doh, however didnt spot it but I think the hands are from the previous rep and dropped on the new model' ... although in the video they seem 'slimmer' ...

I actually mean on the rep from trusty! Look closely at 6 and 12, they look really fat compared to the gen

On the gen 9 o clock is fatter than 12 and 6. But on the rep 12 9 and 6 looks like the exact same size

RGR ..RGR ... however thats the 'OLD' Model ... chime in on the new version whcih obviously has no numerals ..other than that damn little hole in the dial ... does anyone really still need a date window any longer ... aesthetically speaking

Ya figure you go to the trouble to do a new rep ..but can't be assed to cut out a new date window ..so I know we can use these old dials laying around . just keep it on the QT ... there must be some dude at the factory, at least one with THE INTERNET ..thinking ..they are gonna catch us !!!

I owned this one for a bit. I loved the color, feel and look of the bracelet. Unfortunately I thought I was buying the Miyota 9015 (28800bph) version of the watch so I sent it back. However, the watch was nice despite the spelling error on the back.
