Thread: Discontinued VCs

    Discontinued VCs

    This must be quite old - I wish I could remember when it was from - 1960? It looks more PP than VC at first glance, but perhaps it has a bit of that VC lightness of touch?

    It's pretty. Certainly the markers are very VC-ish. Where did you find the picture?

    Very nice, and at 36mm large for a dress watch of the time.

    Nice sturdy case and an automatic movement - in a parallel universe this is my daily wearer

    Yikes! It looks like an old-school postage stamp was the inspiration for the bezel.

    When I see details like that I'm always thinking about how difficult it would be to keep them nice and clean!
