Overseas Chronograph 5520V/210R-B966 42.5 mm Pink Gold
Chronograph 5520V/210R-B966
Introduced by the Republic and Canton of Geneva in 1886 as the ultimate standard in excellence and an emblem of Geneva’s fine watchmaking expertise, the Poinçon de Genève or Hallmark of Geneva, is synonymous with provenance, quality craftsmanship and reliability.
Elegant yet casual, this 18K 5N pink gold watch houses a column-wheel chronograph enhanced by a date aperture between 4 and 5 o’clock. Its openworked caseback reveals an oscillating weight in 22K 3N yellow gold featuring decoration inspired by the wind rose, a tribute to the spirit of travel. Thanks to its pin buckle and three straps – 18K 5N pink gold, leather, and rubber – equipped with a self-interchangeable system, the watch can be personalized according to the owner’s wishes. Through its links, the bracelet subtly reveals the Maltese cross, a Vacheron Constantin icon.
Chic yet sporty
To accentuate the intensity of the green sunburst dial, meticulous care is lavished on the finishing. A translucent lacquered backdrop creates depth with sunburst satin-brushing at the centre, while the flange is delicately velvet-finished. Harmoniously complementing the dial with polished and vertical satin-brushed links, the rose gold bracelet evokes a Maltese cross.
This timepiece houses the mechanical, self-winding Calibre 5200, developed and manufactured by Vacheron Constantin. Haute Horlogerie finishing includes a 22K pink gold oscillating weight adorned with the collection's emblematic compass rose. Robust and sturdy, the movement beats at a frequency of 4 Hz (28,800 vibrations per hour), offering around 52 hours of power reserve.
Versatility is one of the most practical and attractive features of Overseas watches. This model comes with an integrated pink gold bracelet featuring a triple-blade, quick-release folding clasp that can be swapped out tool-free for a calfskin or rubber strap. Matching the green of the dial, these two straps fasten with a similarly interchangeable pin buckle.
