Tough to give advice, really best to try it on!

Great pickup. This got me pondering one. Watched a few watchbox videos on it. The lug to lug seems reasonable but then he mentions the top two endlinks
Don’t bend straight down and make it more like 57mm. He has a tiny wrist and it looked decent. But in a comparison to 5164 he says it’s much bigger. I find my 5164 at the cusp of fitting my 6.5 how I like it. Any thoughts on this? How big is your wrist, 7?

For the zurich edition, im in love with your 3 hander! The subtlety of it is amazing! The blue rings are such a nice touch!

But for the chrono i 100% would choose my blue over the photo i found!

I totally agree with you. BTW the very friendly staff at the FPJ boutique confirmed that they are the ones responsible for your blue dial.

Btw, out of curiosity, are the zurich editions numbered on the watch? Did they come with anything special?

That silver/blue is very cool. Since we know the brown dial is now discontinued on the gen 3 overseas does anyone know if its true or rumor that silver dial is going away too? I was told this by an AD in Chicago when i called looking for mine that he heard such. ? ?

No idea if the silver dial will be discontinued. The boutique didn't mention it.

I've been going back and forth to see if the Overseas is too big for my small 6.3" wrist. Sometimes it looks alright and at times I look at it again and it feels a bit too big.



A close up makes it look quite big due to wide-angle distortion.

Tbh it's not a small watch but it's very comfortable to wear. I'm not a big person but i find it fits me fine! Oh and the chrono is much larger if im not mistaken

Get it, and adjust the bracelet/strap it so that it sits further back from your hand than the close-up shot, then you’ll be grand with how it look on you.

Yesterday I ordered a Vacheron Constantin Overseas Dual-Time blue dial. I was told I would likely take delivery in October. I have to admit, I was a bit disappointed in the wait time. Until I realized this morning I have these cuff-links to tide me over.....

Congrats on your new acquisition! I wanted the same piece but since I already have a blue VC overseas I think I'll go for the new black face dual time!
Hope it arrives sooner than October

Yay, finally got my 4500v blue today. Could not be happier!!! (Pictures follow tomorrow).

Question for the other lucky 4500v owners: the rotor of mine is rather loud. I would go as far as saying as loud as my Panerai (who are known to be loud). Is that the same for you guys?
