Mid fifties era vintage Vacherons

Nov 05, 2015,14:00 PM
 

Interesting pair of watches from about the same year. 1955 or thereabouts, both with the movement 453.


The one on the left looks to be a "Jubilee" model which had a reference number of 4600. If so, there would be an inscription on the outside of the back that says "Jubilee". 

The one on the right has a guilloche dial pattern that is often referred to as a "tuxedo" dial, with vertical stripes. I do not know if this one had a reference number.

Not all Vacheron had reference numbers. If they did it would been on the inside of the case back. Maybe someone else can recognize the case.

The one on the left is very original, Dial, hands and crown are as it left the factory. Polished but very nice looking. The one on the right has replacement hands and crown. They would have been the same as the Jubilee.
