1980s Petite Ultra-Thin 18k Gold

An understated Vacheron Constantin reference 13006 from the 1980s, with classic dress-watch proportions and an exceptionally slim profile. The 18k yellow gold case measures just 4.5mm thick, with angular straight lugs adding a sharper architectural touch to an otherwise minimal design.

The bright white dial is simply configured with elongated black Roman numerals, black leaf-shaped hands and an applied Maltese cross, with the signed Maltese cross crown completing the case.

Powered by the Vacheron Constantin caliber 1003/1, an 18-jewel manual-wind movement particularly suited to the thin proportions of the watch.

Fitted with a custom purple Swift leather strap for a subtle bit of color. The original Vacheron Constantin black crocodile strap is also included, with one Vacheron Constantin 18k gold buckle to use between the two.

A quiet, beautifully proportioned Vacheron that wears much larger than its dimensions suggest while retaining the elegance of an ultra-thin dress watch.
