Vacheron Constantin - Fancy Lugs
A beautiful and uncommon example of mid-century Vacheron Constantin design, this 1950s solid 18k gold dress watch blends elegance, proportion, and charm in a way few brands could achieve. With its original two-tone cream dial featuring applied Arabic numerals at 3, 6, 9, and 12, and arrowhead markers at the remaining hours, this piece offers a rich vintage aesthetic that has aged gracefully over the decades.
What truly elevates this watch are the exquisite tear drop lugs, giving the 35mm case a much larger wrist presence and a sculptural elegance that feels distinctly Vacheron. The case remains in excellent condition with crisp, deep hallmarks still visible—a testament to its well-preserved, unpolished state.
The watch is powered by a manual wind movement, recently serviced and running flawlessly. Rounding out the package is an exceptionally rare detail: its original Vacheron Constantin signed gold buckle, which is rarely seen still accompanying watches from this era.
The dial is clean and evenly aged, with light patina that adds just the right amount of character without distracting from its balance and legibility.
This is a rare opportunity to own a 1950s Vacheron in outstanding condition, with all the vintage hallmarks that collectors seek—original dial, sculptural lugs, untouched case, signed buckle, and clean mechanical integrity. As one of the oldest and most respected Swiss Maisons, Vacheron’s work from this era represents some of the finest classical watch design ever produced.
A perfect vintage dress watch that punches well above its size and stands out from the crowd.

What Our Clients Say About Us
I knew I was gonna like Danny, based on his name, but nothing could’ve prepared me for how great of an experience this was. He had the most beautiful 70s Seamaster Cosmic on his website and I was set to be married 2 days later - I arranged to buy it but before leaving we both realized it needed to be serviced. I panicked, because I was literally buying this for my wedding, and Danny being the legend he is, loaned me a nearly identical Seamaster to make sure I could get through the event Never have I had someone go so above and beyond for me, especially while purchasing one of the lesser priced items in their inventory. He serviced my watch and exchanged it with me after the wedding on a super fast turnaround timeline. I would sincerely recommend you visit this guy, you will not be disappointed Edit: adding a pic of the loaner (two tone) and the owner (crosshair)
Great service and shop. Danny and his team were incredibly accommodating, professional, and kind. Great selection of vintage watches. Their store is the hidden gem in the diamond district.
This was my first real luxury watch purchase, a Rolex 15200 Date 34mm, I own Tissots and a Laco, but those are entry level luxury watches. I found Danny’s Vintage Watches online, and had great feedback both on Google, Chrono24 and the Reddit watch community. So decided to give him a shot as buying online can be a crap shoot. Ordered Monday night, was at my doorstep Friday morning. Despite the watch being over 30 years old, serial number says it’s from 91, the watch looked new. Didn’t come with box or papers, and was shipped in a plastic sleeve wrapped in bubble wrap. Danny was always available to answer questions. I’ll be buying from Danny again for the next purchase…saw a couple of Speedmasters on his site I liked….
Can't recommend Danny's vintage watches enough!!! My first Omega ever and im in love have been wearing every day since I purchased it. Danny's shop is a must visit if you are in NYC looking for a watch!!!
