The Vacheron Constantin Overseas 42042 in yellow gold captures the spirit of adventure. Introduced in the mid-1990s as the first generation of the Overseas line, the 42042 blends sport and sophistication in a design that pays homage to the iconic 222 from 1977.

Crafted in solid 18k yellow gold, the 37mm case features a notched bezel inspired by the Maltese Cross and integrated bracelet links that taper elegantly around the wrist. Its crisp white dial with applied gold markers and luminous hands ensures legibility, while the automatic Calibre 1310 (based on the ultra-thin Girard-Perregaux 3100) delivers reliable performance in a slim profile. The ref. 42042 in yellow gold stands out as a luxurious take on the luxury sports watch - understated yet bold, and unmistakably Vacheron.

This very example is in well preserved condition and definitely unpolished, with light scratches to the surface. The gold has already patinated and shines beautifully red. It’s accompanied by the fullset and full length bracelet, and comes from the original first owner!
