Vacheron Constantin updates its 'Historiques American 1921' with radiant dials and blue accents

One of Vacheron Constantin’s most acclaimed heritage revivals, the Historiques American 1921, is once again in the spotlight with its refreshed design. A homage to the early age of automobiles, this asymmetrical timepiece, born in the Roaring Twenties, is renowned for its 45-degree-rotated dial and unusually placed crown, enabling motorists to keep time without losing grip of the wheel. Complementing the stunning grained dial are vibrant blue accents, radiating an aura of modern elegance while maintaining its vintage essence.

Imbued with Art Deco ethos of the 1920s, the distinctive watch design contributed to the legacy of Vacheron, drawing acclaim for its perfect timing with the rise of affordable automobiles and the popularity surge of wristwatches.

Bearing all the vintage charm, the reinvented watch pairs with a blue patinated calfskin strap bestowing a gradient effect. The Historiques American 1921 models retail for CHF 32,300 (36.5mm) and CHF 39,200 (40mm), proving that luxury and heritage are indeed unfading.
