Hi

I have just bought a vintage Vacheron Constantin, model 7397, movement 1072/1. Movement number 598659 case number 443372. Seller is estimating the watch is from around 1960. Is it possible form the numbers to date this watch more accurate than around1960?

Best regards

Henrik

Your watch may be somewhat later than 1960, possibly into the 1970's. See www.xs4all.nl Lots of luck Harv
