Vacheron Constantin's Overseas line has long been known for its sporty yet elegant interpretation of the luxury sports watch concept. With the release of the Overseas Tourbillon, the firm introduced a high complication model that pushes the boundaries of haute horology with their superb craftsmanship and mechanical prowess. Powered by the cal. 2160, the brand's first in-house manufactured self-winding tourbillon movement, it is equipped with a tourbillon carriage that rotates once per minute which aims to enhance the movement's precision. The entire movement is visible through its sapphire caseback, continuing the brand's focus on transparency in the current Overseas generation. While large on paper, the 42.5mm watch wears comfortably on the wrist thanks to its slim profile and quick-release strap system that provides the option to swap out the heavier bracelet for lighter options. The addition of a tourbillon complication to the sporty Overseas evokes some paradox, though it demonstrates Vacheron's ability to engineer and design advanced mechanical timepieces. Offered in excellent overall condition with its original accessories, the present example from 2020 will be a fine addition for any collection, made to be worn on any occasion.
