Description
This unusual Vacheron Constantin 4591 is a perfect proof of the exclusivity of the Vacheron Constantin brand, which is one of the oldest watch manufacturers in the world and is admired for its own high-quality movements.

Reference 4591 was launched in 1949. With its opulent shapes the watch embodies the design of the chic era of the 50s and 60s. The unique silhouette of the rectangular case is created thanks to the flared sides and the raised crystal. Vintage collectors call the shape of this case "tegola". This is the Italian term for sloping house roofs.

The case of this Tegola from the 1950s is made of white gold and houses an elegant silver dial with diamond indices and a sub-dial with running seconds. The watch is accompanied by an original red Vacheron Constantin box from the 1950s.
