Given the purity of their design, absolutely 1940s vibe and supremely well-finished movements, Vacheron Constantin's chronographs from the first half of the past century can be considered among the most attractive and well-constructed chronographs of the time. To find an example in stainless steel and pink gold is remarkable, and this specific one further impresses with its superior overall condition.

Reference 4072
Reference 4072, one of Vacheron Constantin's most popular chronograph models, was in production from 1938 until the early 1970s. It existed with oval-shaped chronograph buttons or with the better known rectangular version, the bezel was either bevelled or flat.
