Specifically designed for the American market during the Roaring Twenties, the American\u00a01921 set itself apart from the rest through its diagonal reading of the time. A young man\u2019s dream at a time when wristwatches were only just beginning to overtake pocket watches. To celebrate the 100th<\/sup> anniversary of this truly unique model, Vacheron Constantin decided to dive into its archives and its watchmaking know-how in order to faithfully recreate the watch using the techniques from 1921. A piece of cake? Far from it. The project kept the Maison\u2019s Restoration workshop and the Heritage department busy for an entire year.<\/p>\n
