The brand had been crafting calendar watches since the late 1920s, but it was until this reference, 4240, that VC started serially produce triple-calendar watches. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"877\" data-start=\"458\"\u003eWith a diameter of 35mm, the ref. 4240 was considered relatively large, as most men's dress watches of the time typically measured around 32 to 33mm. The unmistakable \"Cornes de Vache\" lugs—translated as \"cow horn\" in English—and the gadroon-like profile around the case are exceptionally striking and elegant. These cases were available in either 18k yellow or rose gold, with a very limited number produced in steel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"1228\" data-start=\"879\"\u003eThis is easily one of the prettiest watches to come out of the 1940s, gorgeous.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Vacheron Constantin","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56503909679490,"sku":null,"price":13995.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0904\/9201\/0882\/files\/HERO_ONLY20.jpg?v=1765970995","url":"https:\/\/falco-watches.com\/products\/vacheron-constantin-4240-triple-date-calendar-1","provider":"Falco","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
