Overview
A monobloc tonneau case, reissued
The Vacheron Constantin Historiques 222, reference 4200H/222J-B935, in 18K yellow gold with a gold-toned dial and lime green SuperLuminova® markers, on the yellow gold bracelet with its triple folding clasp. Self-winding calibre 2455/2 with hours, minutes and an aperture date; 37 mm, 7.95 mm high, certified to the Hallmark of Geneva.
This execution is the Historiques 222 monobloc tonneau case on calibre 2455/2, in 18K yellow gold, with a gold-toned dial and a yellow gold bracelet.
The reference 4200H/222 is Vacheron Constantin's Historiques 222, a modern remake the brand credits as reviving a 1970s design, offered here in two case metals: stainless steel with a blue mat-finished dial, and 18K yellow gold with a gold-toned dial. The case is a monobloc tonneau shape, cut in one piece with the bracelet built into it, and carries a Maltese cross at 5 o'clock; it measures 37 mm across and 7.95 mm high, with a sapphire case back showing the self-winding movement and its own oscillating weight. Both dials carry a date window at 3 o'clock and 18K gold baton-type hands and straight hour-markers highlighted in lime green SuperLuminova®.
Inside is the self-winding calibre 2455/2: 26.2 mm across, 3.6 mm high, with 194 parts and 27 jewels, running at 28,800 V.P.H. (4 Hz) for a stated 40-hour power reserve, and a balance-stop function alongside the hours, minutes and date. It is worn on a bracelet in its own case metal, polished and satin-finished, closed by a triple folding clasp. The watch carries the Hallmark of Geneva; the brand's own account places the mark's origin in 1886, when Geneva's Republic and Canton created it as a guarantee of finishing standard, and says it now stands for the watch's origin, workmanship and reliability rather than one technical figure.
