A direct descendant of the iconic 222 model that Vacheron Constantin replica watches launched in 1977 to celebrate the 222nd anniversary of the brand, the Overseas replica watch was presented in 1996 as a classy sport watch designed for an active lifestyle. The structural design of the Overseas – with its distinctive bezel – was developed around the theme of travel with the sophisticated styling to reflect mechanical excellence.
Three years later a chronograph version with a self-winding calibre made its appearance and, in 2004, an anti magnetic screen was fitted to give the movement all-round protection.
Over the years, Vacheron Constantin has developed the identify codes of this line over the years, such as the metal bracelet introduced in 2004 and featuring a motif evoking the Maltese cross brand emblem.
In 2016, on occasion of the Salon International de la Haute Horlogerie which has opened today in Geneva, Vacheron Constantin is presenting the first five models (for a total of 12 references) of the new Hallmark of Geneva-certified Overseas collection.
The Hallmark of Geneva guarantees high production standards in terms of provenance, resilience, accuracy and expertise while ensuring respect for traditional hand workmanship. Vacheron Constantin is its most loyal representative since 1901.
The curves of the case of the new Swiss replica watches Overseas are seamlessly integrated with the bracelet or strap which, thanks an interchangeability device, can be easily changed. Bracelets – in stainless steel or precious metal – are equipped with an easy-fit system for enhanced comfort.
All the models are powered by automatic movements protected from magnetic fields by a soft iron ring and visible through the transparent caseback.
In the next days we will present each new Vacheron Constantin Overseas model in detail. In the meanwhile we provide here an overview of the collection.
