Vacheron Constantin is one of the most outstanding horological masters that no watch lover can ignore. This brand has built its reputation since 1755. Among the many things that this watchmaking house enjoys, Vacheron Constantin is also the figure that has adorned various kings and historical personalities throughout its history.
Vacheron Constantin watches are in high demand in the replica watch industry. Watch lovers with the most sophisticated tastes are the base clientele for these pieces of horological art. I always recommend replica watch hobbyists opt for the highest quality imitations possible. Only a quality imitation, even if it is a bit more expensive, can convey the authentic charisma of the original pieces.
Recently…
We received a batch of Vacheron Constantin imitations from our manufacturers. I rummaged through the whole lot and found five imitations that I recommend to everyone. The replica watches I am going to review here should not be missing from the collection of anyone who considers themselves a die-hard watch fan. I will present here five models with extraordinarily attractive aesthetics and very promising technical architecture. Likewise, I will vary in watch styles, from classic to sports, so that you can easily find the watch that best matches your tastes.
Don’t worry; I will try to be as objective as possible. For this reason, I will also talk about the shortcomings of some of these watches. Our goal, at AAAReplica, is to be as transparent as possible, so that you know what to expect with any chosen model.
Hence, I propose that I stop procrastinating and get down to business.
Overseas Self-Winding 4500V V8F SS Silver Dial Swiss 5100 replica watch
I will start with the Overseas 4500V model which is a replica watch only perfect for people who embrace the active way of life. At first glance, this watch is not too sporty. On the contrary, the first impression it conveys is an air of elegance with refined accents. But if you look carefully at the functionality and readability of the dial, you will realize that this watch is a good friend for an active life.
Let’s start with the dimensions of the watch
This Overseas replica watch proposes a 41 mm case. Respectively, it is quite obvious on the wrist, but not overly noticeable. Personally, a few years ago, I was a fan of exclusively 39mm watches. It seemed to me that anything larger than 39mm becomes much too obvious. But thanks to watches like the Overseas, I realized that 41 mm is not an exaggeration. Considering that the height of the watch is quite decent, only 11 mm, the timepiece looks extremely fitting on the wrist.
The replica model benefits from a fairly smooth finish. It’s not that it’s the smoothest finish I’ve seen, but I can’t say I’m not satisfied with it either. The first thing to notice about this replica watch is the noticeable contrast of the finish. I’m more referring to the fact that the bezel has a polished finish that conveys a delicate sophistication. At the same time, the rest of the construction has a slightly matte brushed texture, which highlights the smoothness of the bezel.
At the same time…
The bezel has a very specific architecture and is different from the round bezels we know from other watches. This is reminiscent of the Maltese cross, which is characterized by cuts on the circumference of the bezel.
I want to draw your attention to the bracelet of the replica watch which is made of 316 stainless steel. The architecture of the bracelet consists of three links that pair phenomenally well with the bezel of the watch. The nice part is that you can opt for a leather bracelet or a rubber one. Both options are available in our store. It remains only for you to decide which best suits your style. Personally, I go for the stainless steel bracelet option. This type of bracelet seems to me to best highlight the charismatic spirit of the watch.
The dial
Let’s go to the watch dial. At first glance, it seems that there is nothing special about this dial. Here we are dealing with a silver metal plate, hands with a subtle silhouette, and hour markers in the shape of an elongated stick. What makes this dial special is the sophistication it exudes and its functional minimalism. The face of the watch includes the minimum necessary for everyday activities while transmitting a specific sophistication.
The hour indicators are covered with Luminescent material. They glow brightly in the dark, transforming the watch from a sporty piece to an elegant one.
Between the main hour markers, you will find black hashes indicating the minutes. It adds a complex air to the dial, making it look like a mature watch.
A no less important detail is the date window that you find at the three o’clock indicator. The aperture frame is well accentuated, increasing its legibility. At the same time, the background of this aperture coincides in color with the main plate of the dial.
I can only say that the execution of the replica watch is almost flawless. The manufacturers have tried to perfectly reproduce the finish of the watch, as well as the complexity of its architecture. I have to mention that the bracelet and bezel of the watch are not exactly the simplest. In the same context, I applaud what the manufacturers have done because they have reproduced this complex architecture quite successfully.
Overseas Chronograph Blue Dial replica watch
This Overseas watch has many similarities with the previous replica watch. In fact, both are part of the same collection. Like the previous model, you’ll find the same unconventional bezel reminiscent of the Maltese cross.
What is different with this replica watch? First of all, we are talking about a different, slightly larger case here. The Overseas Chronograph has a diameter of 42mm. Accordingly, this watch looks much more generous and “severe” on the wrist. At the same time, its technical construction is more complex. If the previous replica watch had only the date function, this Chronograph offers 3 subdials.
Apart from the crown on the left side of the watch, you will also find two buttons with which you can adjust these subdials. I can’t help but notice how comfortable it is to adjust the crown and the buttons. All three elements rotate perfectly and it is very easy to manage the functions of the watch with them.
Why do I Love this Overseas Chronograph?
First of all, I love the severity of its dial. As complicated as it seems, it is similarly refined. The hands of the watch are made of metal and have a discerning silhouette. The hour and minute hands are somewhat thicker and the second hand is extremely thin and long.
The replica watch also benefits from the date function. Unlike the previous model, this one is found between 3 and 4 o’clock, in an elegant diagonal position. The replica watch may seem severe and intricate. But be sure that it will take you no more than 5 minutes to adapt to its intuitive and simple functionality.
On the other hand…
The drawback of this replica watch is that the blue of the dial is not identical to the authentic model. The original watch has an “oceanic” blue. Instead, the replica watch comes in blue with slight transitions to purple. The texture of the dial coincides between the authentic model and the imitation. However, the manufacturers got the shade of blue a little wrong.
Generally speaking, I associate this imitation with refined and wise people, and who embrace the active way of life. I don’t know why, but I see this particular watch specifically for such an audience. I know for sure that if you put it on your wrist, the watch cannot remain unnoticeable. So if this is your goal, know that this Overseas is a very good option.
Technically speaking…
This replica watch works on the basis of a genuine Swiss 7753 Movement Modified to resemble the Caliber 5200 alignment with very smooth sweeping seconds hands motion. The material of the watch is 316l stainless steel, with a professional finish execution, both on the brushed and finished surfaces. Water resistance assumes 10 meters. In this context, manufacturers recommend avoiding contact with water.
Historiques American 1921 Pink Gold replica watch
Here we are discussing one of Vacheron Constantin’s most controversial watches: the Historique American. Some argue that the design of the watch is not quite successful. Others, however, argue that such a design can only be conceived by an artistic watchmaker such as Constantin Vacheron. Either way, this watch deserves all the respect at least for the visual distortion it generates. The dial of this model aims to show how elegant and minimalist a watch can look, even with a design twist.
Why twisted?
Just look at his dial and you will understand. The watch face has an angled position to the right. It’s actually not hard to read the time. At the same time, we have to admit that for a millisecond, we find it fairly unusual and out of the ordinary.
Even the crown is out of the box in this watch. Instead of the usual position at 3 o’clock, its position is in the upper right corner of the square case. Constantin Vacheron probably had a lot of fun when he created the concept of this watch. And we, watch lovers, get a lot of confusion every time we look at it. This is the definition of a remarkable watch: one that generates emotions. And the Historiques watch does a great job with the emotions it gives to us.
The Historiques imitation is all of 316 stainless steel and is polished with a generous layer of pink gold. The execution of the construction is 5 stars, starting with the finishing of the case and ending with the smallest details on the dial. I suppose that the replica manufacturers did not find it difficult to reproduce this model because it is not a very intricate watch. Accordingly, all aspects of the knockoff coincide with the characteristics of the original model.
This means that the proportions are identical, 40mm*40mm. The replica watch benefits from a transparent caseback through which you can admire its mechanism. The manufacturers used an anti-reflective sapphire crystal to cover the dial and caseback of the replica watch. The execution of the crown as well as the dial with its design features look exactly the same.
If you are looking for a watch that will surely generate confusion, impressions, and discussions, I don’t think you need to look any further. It is just right here!
Historiques Cornes de Vache 1955 Platinum replica watch
This replica watch stands out for its perfectly round shape, and its impeccable bezel finish. However, all these are nowhere near as remarkable as the lugs of the watch. The four lugs have a special shape reminiscent of water drops. But the truth is that the brand paid homage to the “Corns de Vache” model from 1955 through the prism of this watch.
This replica timepiece benefits from the most subtle silhouette from the entire list. I am talking here about the case of only 38.5 mm. At the same time, the construction of the watch is quite high, which is a reason for dispute among watch lovers. Personally, I don’t see anything disturbing in the fact that the watch is slightly tall. On the contrary, due to its height, the replica watch looks ubiquitous and outstanding on the wrist.
Dial
The dial of the watch features an immaculate white face on which 2 sub-dials adorn the watch face. Along the circumference of the dial, you will find a tachymeter scale marked by easily visible graduations. Both of the sub-dials benefit from a slightly metallic texture, improving their legibility on the white dial.
What I love most about this replica watch are the Roman hour markers. These are silver and barely noticeable against the white backdrop of the daal. I find them so elegant and subtle, adding an extra touch of sophistication to the whole construction. The hands of the watch are extremely slender, benefiting from a slim and elegant silhouette.
In order to improve the legibility of the watch, the manufacturers assigned a shade of light blue to the second hand. This shade is also found in the outer ring of the dial, marking the minutes behind the hours. The other two hands, for the minutes and the hour, are made of silver.
The face of the watch does not have severe chromatic accents. Conversely, the entire dial is light in color, making the watch appear noticeably larger than it really is. I can’t find any aesthetic flaws in this replica watch. Everything seems to be executed at the highest level. The replica watch goes perfectly with the dark brown leather strap. To elevate the aesthetics of the watch to the highest level, the manufacturers have adorned the strap with an extremely refined stitch on the edge of the strap, in the same tan shade. Wearing this replica for a few days, I felt comfortable, elegant, and special. I felt that the watch gave me an extra touch of sophistication, even when I was wearing a casual outfit.
Fifty-Six Self-Winding replica watch
If you are an avid connoisseur of Vacheron Constantin’s heritage, you will immediately realize that the Fifty-Six watch is a tribute to the 6073 model, which delighted audiences in the 1956s. The Fifty-Six replica model proposes a very balanced construction in terms of proportions. We are talking here about a diameter of 40 mm and a height of only 9 mm. In my opinion, these are the ideal proportions that could satisfy the preferences of even the most finicky watch lover.
Through the lens of the Fifty-Six model, we see an abundance of silver tones. Both the dial and the case benefit from the same color scheme in which the silver tone is the main hero.
Overall, the face of the replica watch is smooth and calm. The only “intruder” that attracts attention with a more pronounced texture is the crown, with its flared architecture. On the upper part of the crown, you will find the legendary Maltese Cross, which is so familiar to Constantin Vacheron watches.
Like the original model, the replica watch benefits from a transparent case back. Through the prism of this display back, you can observe the automatic mechanism as well as all the engravings that perfectly coincide with the genuine watch.
I want to note the refinement of the bezel of this replica watch. The watch offers a wide, clean bezel, without any intricate details. Its beauty lies in the perfectly polished surface, which is executed at the highest level.
The replica watch dial appears to be simple at first glance. But if you look closely, you will notice refined aesthetic elements in it. For example, you will notice a ring reminiscent of the shape of a ladder on the central circumference of the dial. You will also notice a ring similar to the ladder motif on the outer edge of the replica watch.
At the same time…
The sophistication of the watch also lies in the combination of hour indicators. Even indicators are represented by Arabic numerals, while odd indicators are represented by elegant sticks. By the way, all indicators include luminescent material. Unfortunately, the duration of the luminescence is not very long.
Minimalism is the key to the success of this replica watch. It all boils down to refined design details and delicate textures. If we talk about the functionality of the watch, this imitation offers only one function in addition to the time indication, namely the date function.
The date aperture lies next to the 3 o’clock and strictly adheres to the minimalist and elegant style of the entire watch. This opening benefits from a slightly lighter silver background than the silver of the dial, in which the date indices are displayed in black.
The execution of this replica watch is one of the best. I love playing with this watch in sunlight at different angles because the dial transitions beautifully from lighter to darker shades of silver.
Conclusion
We are often faced with dilemmas regarding which watches we should or should not purchase. But, when it comes to Constantin Vacheron, there is no room for interpretation. I think that Vacheron Constantin is one of the brands that should not be missing in any watch collection, even if it is a one-piece collection. The specific taste and perfect creativity of this brand make Vacheron watches unique. For this reason, I think you should not hesitate to make yourself a gift.
As for replica watches, we all know that factories release sometimes better, sometimes worse imitations. For this reason, it is very important to find a dealer who speaks transparently and honestly about the quality of replica watches. I tried to be as objective as possible in this article and speak as honestly as possible.
The watches we’ve talked about here are downright stunning in terms of execution. All look 99% identical to the authentic models. Whichever model you find yourself in will increase your self-confidence and improve others’ views of you. These watches are unique in their own way and exude a charisma as exclusive as practical, no matter how banal it may sound. I hope you were able to find the model you were looking for in this list. Enjoy it!
