About this watch

Vintage Vacheron Constantin tonneau-shaped dress watch in 18k yellow gold, likely reference 31150, featuring an elegant stepped tonneau case and beautifully balanced silver dial with applied Breguet-style Arabic numerals. A classic example of understated mid-century Vacheron design, combining the refinement of Geneva haute horlogerie with the soft curves and proportions collectors seek in vintage shaped watches.

The warm silver dial is exceptionally clean and sophisticated, with delicate printed signature, applied Maltese cross at 12, and elegant feuille hands that give the watch a timeless, highly wearable appearance. The elongated tonneau case wears beautifully on the wrist and has the graceful profile associated with classic dress references from the 1950s–1970s era of Vacheron Constantin production.

Powered by a high-grade manual wind movement finished to the standards expected from Vacheron Constantin, this watch represents the kind of discreet luxury increasingly appreciated by collectors looking beyond mainstream sports models. The design sits naturally alongside vintage pieces from Patek Philippe, Audemars Piguet, Cartier, and Piaget, while remaining distinctly Vacheron in execution and restraint.

The watch is fitted on a black leather strap and presents as an elegant collector’s piece suitable for both daily wear and formal occasions. A rare opportunity to own a refined vintage Vacheron tonneau in solid gold from one of the holy trinity maisons.
