Vacheron Constantin 4418 Flame Lugs

fancy exotic lugs - perfect dial - 18ct gold

Description
This stunning Vacheron Constantin 4418 with its exotic flame lugs dates from the late 1940s, a period when Vacheron Constantin gave free rein to its creativity and ventured into unusual designs.

The 18-carat yellow gold case features a harmoniously stepped bezel and intricately curved lugs, known to collectors as "flame lugs". This unusual case shape gives the watch an unmistakable presence and provides a fascinating contrast to the simple yet sophisticated silver dial. The beautiful gold triangular hour-markers are eye-catching and reveal a great attention to detail.

Inside is the Vacheron Constantin calibre P453/3C, a mechanical work of art of the highest quality.

The technical excellence, the avant-garde design, the rarity and the great condition make this watch highly collectible.
