This unique piece is the only rare Swiss/French dial advertised on chrono24 and is collectors dream from an already exalted family the "Les Complications". In the early 1990s Vacheron Constantin introduced a line of fine timepieces known as "Les Complications". These watches were created to showcase the very best of Vacheron Constantin's skilled craftsmanship. Three main watch types were painstakingly put together and as well as the mighty perpetual which is being sold here, Vacheron also included the tourbillion and minute repeaters.
