In 1996 Vacheron Constantin decided to launch a re-issue of the legendary "222" (created in 1977 by young designer Jörg Hysek) and introduced the Overseas range with models that attract the clientele with their natural elegance, clear cut lines and outstanding technical properties.
The 18 K gold case has taken on a beautiful rainbow-coloured patina, showing that the watch has hardly been worn in recent years.
