1940s Vacheron Constantin Cornes de Vache Jumbo The absence of a secondsWorth A Read History and Significance Mid century Vacheron Constantin dress watches remain some of the most understated and elegant watches produced during the post war era, particularly when found in oversized cases such as this example.
