Vacheron Constantin Genève “Sendon” Vintage 18K Gold Wristwatch — Ref. 7811 — Calibre K1014 — Original Papers

An elegant and beautifully preserved vintage Vacheron Constantin Genève wristwatch, reference 7811, housed in a refined solid 18K yellow-gold case and powered by the prestigious hand-wound calibre K1014.
The watch has a classic, understated design characteristic of Vacheron Constantin dress watches from the mid-20th century. Its slim profile, long faceted lugs and minimalist gold-toned dial create an exceptionally elegant appearance on the wrist.

The original dial is finished in a warm gold colour and remains in superb condition. It features applied baton hour markers, slender matching hands, the Maltese Cross emblem and the inscriptions:
Vacheron Constantin Genève

Seventeen 17 Jewels

Cal. K1014
The movement number visible in the photographs is 672249. Its finishing, gold-filled engravings, ruby jewels and refined bridge architecture reflect the exceptional manufacturing standards associated with Vacheron Constantin.
Case
The solid 18K yellow-gold case is preserved in superb condition, with no dents or structural damage. Its elegant proportions and sharp, elongated lugs retain a refined vintage character.
The inside of the case back is signed Vacheron & Constantin and bears the Swiss 18K gold hallmark:
