Overview
A column-wheel chronograph across five dial colours
The Vacheron Constantin Overseas Chronograph, reference 5520V/210A-B481, in stainless steel with an opaque black-lacquered dial, on the steel bracelet with its triple folding clasp. Self-winding column-wheel calibre 5200 with a 30-minute and 12-hour chronograph and date; 42.5 mm, 12.67 mm high, certified to the Hallmark of Geneva.
This execution is in stainless steel on calibre 5200, with an opaque black-lacquered dial; Vacheron Constantin describes the chronograph's snailed counters as silvered against that dial. The bracelet and its triple folding clasp are steel, and the two further straps supplied are black grained calfskin leather and black rubber, with a further steel triple folding clasp supplied for use with them.
The reference 5520V is Vacheron Constantin's Overseas Chronograph, built on the self-winding calibre 5200, 42.5 mm across and 12.67 mm high. The chronograph is column-wheel controlled, timing up to 30 minutes and 12 hours through two snailed counters, with a date shown through an aperture between 4 and 5 o'clock; the dial's centre is sunburst-finished, with a circular-finished internal minute track and a velvet-finished outer one. Vacheron Constantin describes the bracelet's links as tracing the Maltese cross through their own shape.
Inside, an openworked case back shows the winding rotor -- a 22K gold oscillating weight the brand decorates in a wind-rose pattern and ties to a theme of travel -- over the self-winding calibre 5200: 30.6 mm across, 6.6 mm high, 263 parts and 54 jewels, running at 28,800 V.P.H. (4 Hz) for a stated 52-hour power reserve. It is certified to the Hallmark of Geneva, which the brand's own account dates to 1886, when the Republic and Canton of Geneva set it as the standard for watches finished to their own mark, standing today for where and how well a piece was made. It is water-resistant to 150 m, with a transparent sapphire case back also carrying the antimagnetic mark, and a primary bracelet or strap that interchanges with further options supplied with the watch.
