Vacheron Constantin 7390 Basket Ombre 1970s

Here we have a beautifully finished 18k yellow gold Vacheron Constantin dress watch in a square case design from the 1970s. This particular piece is notable for its all over punched basket finishing on the case. It´s a true flagship for Swiss craftsmanship of the 1970s. The golden Ombre dial with stick handset and hour markers is sticking a figure at any occasion.

Inside we found the very reliable Vacheron Constantin automatic caliber K1121 with an 21 carat gold rotor.
