专家说明

According to the Archives of Vacheron Constantin, the present watch was manufactured in 1943.
This watch is a very nice example of one of the celebrated firm's lady's bracelet watches particularly fashionable in the 1940s. The perfectly concealed watch is revealed by opening the ingenious spring-loaded side of the central part.
For other examples of unusual bracelet watches designed by Vacheron & Constantin in the 1940s see Secrets of Vacheron Constantin by Franco Cologni, p. 268
