Legendary code 222, Vacheron Constantin opens 270th anniversary celebration



At the beginning of the new year, Vacheron Constantin released a very important work: the stainless steel model of the Historiques historical masterpiece series 222 luxury replica watches, which is based on the 222 watch model born in 1977.

The brand launched an 18K gold model in the year of 2022, which is similar in meaning. It became a hot spot in the market and led the return of the "gold trend". At that time, many collectors were asking about this stainless steel work. It is not an exaggeration to describe it as "highly anticipated".

The new stainless steel work uses a 37mm case with a bright Zhuoya blue dial, reproducing the original appearance of the first generation of works. In that era when small watch diameters were the mainstream aesthetic, the 37mm size was called "Jumbo" (meaning "Jumbo"), but it seems just right today, just in line with the contemporary aesthetic trend.

While inheriting the essence of the first generation of works, the new work incorporates many modern designs: hiding the exposed screws at the joints of the original bracelet links; the clasp is changed from two-stage to three-stage; the sapphire bottom cover replaces the metal bottom, and the 222 logo is engraved on the 22K gold rotor... swiss fake watches

The finishing touch is a Maltese cross with the number "270" on the edge of the bottom cover, next to the Geneva Seal - the 270th anniversary commemorative logo of Vacheron Constantin. Only the watches produced in 2025 have this exquisite logo, which is a little surprise for collectors.

On September 17, 1755, 24-year-old Jean-Marc Vacheron founded a watchmaking workshop in Geneva and signed the first apprenticeship contract, which marked the beginning of Vacheron Constantin. In 2025, the brand ushered in its 270th anniversary, and the historic masterpiece 222 watch with important witnessing significance opened the curtain of the commemorative celebration.

01. A new chapter in the legend

In 1977, the 222 watch was born to commemorate a special year, the 222th anniversary, and the name of the watch also came from this. Vacheron Constantin boldly used Jorg Heseker, who was still a young man at the time, to design it. Heseker later grew up to be a famous designer in the watch industry and contributed many classic designs to the industry.

The 222 high quality replica watches model can be said to be Heseker's masterpiece. It uses a "barrel-shaped" case with a semicircular tooth hole design and a screw-in bezel shaped like a gear. The shape is very unique and amazing. When it was released that year, a note clip of the same design was also included in the watch box; the integrated bracelet with a large-sized hexagonal central link is also very recognizable.

The most interesting thing is the golden Maltese cross on the lower right corner of the case. It is a stroke of genius. It not only writes the name of Vacheron Constantin in the pioneering chapter of luxury sports watches, but also injects the elegant style that Vacheron Constantin has always had into the watch, making the 222 unique among the many "Jumbo" watches in the 1970s.

The 222 watch was born in an era full of revolutionary spirit. Not only did the watch industry introduce revolutionary quartz technology, but the whole society was full of the pursuit of diversity, freedom and "rebellion". The 222 watch was bred in such a cultural background.

At that time, the avant-garde of music was punk. Initially, it "rebelled" against rock and emphasized more direct, simple and primitive expressions, faced social reality and political issues directly, and was not euphemistic or much artistic. The Sex Pistols band, which was officially formed in 1975, can be said to be the representative of this "rebellious" style.

Punk has a far-reaching influence, not only in music, but also in fashion, art and culture, becoming a symbol of youth culture and social movement. To this day, punk is still a way for young people to express their personality.

Bohemian printed skirts, bell-bottom pants, and floral shirts were the "cool" fashion of that era. Bohemian style originated from the interest in Eastern spirituality and mysticism; bell-bottom pants inherited hippie culture and expanded to the world in the 1970s; floral shirts are also called Hawaiian shirts or dad shirts. The bright colors and large prints are "reverse" from the elegant style. replica Jacob and Co. astronomia sky

The one-piece chain luxury sports watch made of stainless steel, the expensive precious metal dress watch that is even higher than the crocodile leather strap, is the watch industry's capture and compliance with the social thoughts at the time. Luxury steel watches became one of the media for young people to express their attitudes at that time.

The 222 stainless steel watch demonstrates Vacheron Constantin's consistent spirit of innovation and exploration. It is elegant in movement and has created a new aesthetic style. It is a cultural imprint of that era. In every trend of the times, Vacheron Constantin strives to stand at the forefront. replica Richard Mille RM 060 watches
