Filling the gap between brands and consumers we target the consumers who lay trust on pages like ours to better inform and give a inside look about the watch they're looking for.

So, back to today’s article. Our first exclusive content alongside with David Rosas coudlnt get any better than this.

Today we had the chance to get our hands in a beautiful Vacheron Constantin Overseas Chronograph in stainless steel.

Our first impression about this amazing timepiece was his thickness, we are used to wear watches with 5/6mm of thickness so it was a suprise discovering in real life this big 13,70 thick case that houses the Caliber 5200, don’t get me wrong tho, its quite a good size for a caliber that runs a chronograph complication.

It has a little more impact on the wrist in terms of the weight you feel when you're actually wearing it, but it’s actually good to know we have the watch on the wrist I guess.

The next thing we did was checking out the dial. Both me and Alexandre love blue dials, in mather in fact we are addicted to blue dials, we found that this blue was extremely hypnotizing,

with a cool glow and perfection in every reflection.

We didn't even tried to choose another V.C with another dial color, we immediately known that this was the “one”, the one that would be the most loved not only by our readers but by the rest of the consumers in general.

The watch bears the hallmark of Geneva for the first time and it’s the first to actually house the caliber 5200 that is an in-house movement from V.C

You might wonder “But the combined design of the case and bracelet doesn't make it look too much on the wrist?”

In terms of looks no, neither in terms of coolness.

Although I'm always changing my stainless steel bracelets for leather straps I think I might not change this one.

Firstly it has the newly introduced interchangeable bracelet and the watch itself comes with 3 bracelets, so you won't have a problem choosing (or would you?)

Second I think that due to the integration of the bracelet in the case the watch looks smaller than it is, for a watch with a regular yet big 42.50mm of diameter its great!

Once more due to it’s design objective, the sports/luxury combined look, you can wear it while going to a business meeting or at the bar listening to some jazz, or maybe in both situations in the same day, with it’s 52 hours power-reserve you wouldn't have a single problem.
