126 Overseas Mid-size 42040 2000 Box and Papers This watch is in excellent condition. There is some very slight discolouration on the dial.\n\nWatch comes with box, outer box, booklets and undated warranty papers.\n\nThe Vacheron Constantin Overseas ref. 42040 is the quintessential neo-vintage Overseas reference. Released in 1996, it was a continuation of the 222 line of integrated bracelet watches. The 42040 is a midsize watch at 37mm, and features the Maltese cross - Vacheron Constantin's logo - motif on the bezel.\n\nUnlike the 222 (which was designed by a young Jorg Hysek and released shortly after the AP Royal Oak and Patek Philippe Nautilus), the 42040 has a COSC-certified chronometer movement. It's an incredibly understated watch given the impact it would go on to have on Vacheron Constantin's modern history.\n\nVACHERON CONSTANTIN\n\nAs the oldest brand from the "Holy Trinity", Vacheron Constantin has a deserved reputation as one of the finest watchmakers still in operation. The company's repertoire is extremely broad, covering everything from sports watches and dress watches all the way to its famed "Les Cabinotiers" atelier, which specialises in combining the manufacture's most modern horological advances with centuries of artistic and decorative experience to produce watches that are, simply put, works of art.
