Born in the midst of the 1970s quartz-crisis, the reference 222 was launched for the 222nd anniversary of the Vacheron Constantin manufacture. A response to the already existing Audemars Piguet Royal Oak and Patek Philippe Nautilus, the reference was designed by the renowned watch designer Jörg Hysek with an ultra-thin angular case, an integrated bracelet and a two-part case with an ingenuous screw-down serrated bezel. Radically diverging from the already existing design notions of the brand, the wristwatch paved the way for the future sport timepieces of the manufacture.
Launched at Watches in Wonders in 2022, the present 'Historiques 222' is a modern reissue of the historic design. With its monobloc tonneau-shaped case topped with a grooved bezel, the present timepiece with integrated strap continues to showcase its sporty spirit with timeless elegance. The case is decorated with a Maltese cross at 5 o'clock and has an open caseback, allowing the caliber to be admired in full view with an oscillating weight specially redesigned for this model.
