ANALYSE<\/strong><\/p>\n

Il s'agit d'une montre embl\u00e9matique, pierre angulaire de l'histoire de Vacheron Constantin depuis la seconde moiti\u00e9 des ann\u00e9es 90.<\/p>\n

Cette r\u00e9f\u00e9rence est la toute premi\u00e8re s\u00e9rie du mod\u00e8le Overseas qui a \u00e9t\u00e9 commercialis\u00e9 en 1996.<\/p>\n

Cette montre est dot\u00e9e d'un bo\u00eetier tr\u00e8s solide et compact de 37 mm \u00e0 profil circulaire sur lequel est int\u00e9gr\u00e9e une lunette tr\u00e8s caract\u00e9ristique : elle a une forme ronde avec huit \u00e9l\u00e9ments g\u00e9om\u00e9triques en saillie. Le \"rythme\" du design de cet \u00e9tonnant bo\u00eetier est donn\u00e9 par ces \u00e9l\u00e9ments qui jouent avec les huit n\u00e9gatifs respectifs, donnant un effet de clair-obscur sur toute la surface sup\u00e9rieure et lat\u00e9rale du bo\u00eetier. Sur le c\u00f4t\u00e9 droit se trouve la magnifique couronne \u00e0 vis originale avec le logo de la Croix de Malte, qui est ins\u00e9r\u00e9e entre les \u00e9paulements de protection typiques des montres de plong\u00e9e.
\nL'Overseas est en fait un garde-temps \u00e9l\u00e9gant mais avec de fortes connotations sportives. L'\u00e9tanch\u00e9it\u00e9 du bo\u00eetier est garantie jusqu'\u00e0 150 m (500 ft \/15 atm) et est assur\u00e9e par un fond de bo\u00eetier \u00e0 huit vis. Il est le reflet de la lunette et cr\u00e9e une coh\u00e9sion formelle d'une grande intelligence constructive et conceptuelle. Au centre du fond ext\u00e9rieur du bo\u00eetier se trouve la fantastique gravure du voilier Amerigo Vespucci, l'un des plus beaux et des plus importants navires jamais construits. Il fend les vagues de la mer sur lesquelles se d\u00e9tache le mot \"Overseas\" dans un graphisme cursif tr\u00e8s \u00e9l\u00e9gant. Sur le cadre en forme de disque qui entoure la gravure, on trouve l'inscription qui rappelle que le mouvement est officiellement certifi\u00e9 chronom\u00e8tre (COSC).<\/p>\n

Le cadran Sigma est un autre point fort de ce chef-d'\u0153uvre de premi\u00e8re g\u00e9n\u00e9ration. Il pr\u00e9sente un ton blanc clair et net, rehauss\u00e9 par un incroyable guillochage. Il pr\u00e9sente des index pseudo-fl\u00e8ches en or, flanqu\u00e9s de points triangulaires \u00e0 p\u00e2te luminescente. Le guichet de la date est encadr\u00e9 \u00e0 3 heures. Au centre du cadran, \u00e0 12 heures, l'\u00e9criture en forme d'arc \"Vacheron Constantin Gen\u00e8ve\" est plac\u00e9e sous la Croix de Malte en or. A 6 heures, l'inscription juxtapos\u00e9e \"Chronometer Automatic\". Au bas du cadran se trouve l'inscription \"Swiss Made\" entre les symboles Sigma. Les aiguilles des heures et des minutes sont de forme b\u00e2ton, avec des profils inclin\u00e9s et un insert pour la p\u00e2te luminescente. L'aiguille des secondes est affleurante avec un grand contrepoids rectangulaire.
\nCette composition rend le visage de la montre tr\u00e8s moderne. Une fusion parfaite entre sportivit\u00e9 et \u00e9l\u00e9gance.<\/p>\n

Bien entendu, un autre \u00e9l\u00e9ment de conception important est le bracelet int\u00e9gr\u00e9 en or jaune 18 carats massif, qui est serr\u00e9 aux cornes courtes et repli\u00e9es par des vis fendues. Compos\u00e9 de trois maillons \u00e0 la surface satin\u00e9e et au profil poli miroir, il est structur\u00e9 de mani\u00e8re \u00e0 envelopper d\u00e9licatement le poignet. Le fermoir est celui, rare, de la premi\u00e8re g\u00e9n\u00e9ration, avec un syst\u00e8me \"flip and slide-lock\" qui se termine par un m\u00e9canisme \"open\/closed\" et agr\u00e9ment\u00e9 d'un bouton coulissant avec le logo de la Croix de Malte. Un souci du d\u00e9tail absolument obsessionnel.<\/p>\n

Le mouvement automatique est le 1310 d\u00e9riv\u00e9 de Girard Perregaux, avec 27 rubis et un rotor de remontage bidirectionnel avec un semi-arceau en or massif. Les finitions sont de grande qualit\u00e9, avec une surface en cote de Gen\u00e8ve et un perlage sur la platine.<\/p>\n

Cette Vacheron Constantin Overseas ref. 42040, originale dans toutes ses pi\u00e8ces, est l'un des mod\u00e8les les plus embl\u00e9matiques et les plus recherch\u00e9s, et il est tr\u00e8s rare de la trouver dans un \u00e9tat intact. Un jalon de l'horlogerie de tous les temps, puissant et \u00e9l\u00e9gant.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

Original Vacheron crown. Sapphire crystal. Perfect sigma ghilloch\u00e8 dial first generation like new. Automatic movement Vacheron Constantin caliber 1310. ANALYSIS This is an iconic watch, a cornerstone of Vacheron Constantin's history from the second half of the 90s. This reference is the very first series of the Overseas model that was released in 1996. This watch features a very solid and compact 37 mm circular profile case on which a very characteristic bezel is integrated: it has a round shape with eight protruding geometric elements. The "rhythm" in the design of this amazing case is given by these elements that play with the respective negative eights, giving a light and dark effect on the entire upper and lateral surface of the case. On the right side there is the beautiful original screw crown with the Maltese Cross logo, which is inserted between the protective shoulders typical of diver's watches. The Overseas is in fact an elegant timepiece but with strong sporty connotations. The water resistance of the case is guaranteed up to 150 m (500 ft \/15 atm) and is ensured by a case back with eight screws. It is the mirror image of the bezel and creates a formal cohesion of great constructive and design intelligence. At the center of the outer case back is the fantastic engraving of the Amerigo Vespucci sailing ship, one of the most beautiful and important ships ever built. It ploughs through the waves of the sea on which the word "Overseas" stands out in a very elegant cursive graphic. On the disc-shaped frame that encloses the engraving, there is the writing that reminds us that the movement is officially certified as a chronometer (COSC). The Sigma dial is another strong point of this first-generation masterpiece. It has a clean and light white tone, which is enlivened by an incredible guilloch\u00e9 surface workmanship. It features pseudo-arrow indexes in gold, flanked by triangular dots with luminescent paste. The date window is framed at 3 o'clock. At the center of the dial at 12 o'clock is the arch-shaped writing "Vacheron Constantin Geneve" placed under the gold Maltese Cross. At 6 o'clock the juxtaposed writing "Chronometer Automatic". At the bottom of the dial is the writing "Swiss Made" between the Sigma symbols. The hour and minute hands are baton-shaped with sloping profiles and have an insert for the luminescent paste. The seconds hand is flush with a large rectangular counterweight. This composition makes the face of the watch very modern. A perfect fusion of sportiness and elegance. Of course, another important design element is the integrated bracelet in solid 18K yellow gold, which is tightened to the short and folded lugs by slotted screws. It is composed of three links with a satin-finished surface and a mirror-polished profile, and is structured to softly wrap the wrist. The clasp is the rare first generation one, with a "flip and slide-lock" system that ends in an "open\/closed" mechanism and embellished with a sliding button with the Maltese Cross logo. An absolutely obsessive attention to detail. The automatic movement is the 1310 derived from Girard Perregaux, with 27 jewels and a bi-directional winding rotor with a solid gold semi-arch. The finishes are of high quality, with a cote de geneve surface and perlage on the base plate. This Vacheron Constantin Overseas ref. 42040, original in all its parts, is one of the most iconic and sought-after models, and it is very rare to find it in never-touched condition.

Au centre du fond ext\u00e9rieur du bo\u00eetier se trouve la fantastique gravure du voilier Amerigo Vespucci, l'un des plus beaux et des plus importants navires jamais construits.

Sur le cadre en forme de disque qui entoure la gravure, on trouve l'inscription qui rappelle que le mouvement est officiellement certifi\u00e9 chronom\u00e8tre (COSC). Le cadran Sigma est un autre point fort de ce chef-d'\u0153uvre de premi\u00e8re g\u00e9n\u00e9ration. Il pr\u00e9sente un ton blanc clair et net, rehauss\u00e9 par un incroyable guillochage. Il pr\u00e9sente des index pseudo-fl\u00e8ches en or, flanqu\u00e9s de points triangulaires \u00e0 p\u00e2te luminescente. Le guichet de la date est encadr\u00e9 \u00e0 3 heures.

A 6 heures, l'inscription juxtapos\u00e9e \"Chronometer Automatic\". Au bas du cadran se trouve l'inscription \"Swiss Made\" entre les symboles Sigma. Les aiguilles des heures et des minutes sont de forme b\u00e2ton, avec des profils inclin\u00e9s et un insert pour la p\u00e2te luminescente. L'aiguille des secondes est affleurante avec un grand contrepoids rectangulaire. Cette composition rend le visage de la montre tr\u00e8s moderne.

Original Vacheron crown. Sapphire crystal. Perfect sigma ghilloch\u00e8 dial first generation like new. Automatic movement Vacheron Constantin caliber 1310. ANALYSIS This is an iconic watch, a cornerstone of Vacheron Constantin's history from the second half of the 90s. This reference is the very first series of the Overseas model that was released in 1996. This watch features a very solid and compact 37 mm circular profile case on which a very characteristic bezel is integrated: it has a round shape with eight protruding geometric elements. The \"rhythm\" in the design of this amazing case is given by these elements that play with the respective negative eights, giving a light and dark effect on the entire upper and lateral surface of the case. On the right side there is the beautiful original screw crown with the Maltese Cross logo, which is inserted between the protective shoulders typical of diver's watches. The Overseas is in fact an elegant timepiece but with strong sporty connotations. The water resistance of the case is guaranteed up to 150 m (500 ft \/15 atm) and is ensured by a case back with eight screws. It is the mirror image of the bezel and creates a formal cohesion of great constructive and design intelligence. At the center of the outer case back is the fantastic engraving of the Amerigo Vespucci sailing ship, one of the most beautiful and important ships ever built. It ploughs through the waves of the sea on which the word \"Overseas\" stands out in a very elegant cursive graphic. On the disc-shaped frame that encloses the engraving, there is the writing that reminds us that the movement is officially certified as a chronometer (COSC). The Sigma dial is another strong point of this first-generation masterpiece. It has a clean and light white tone, which is enlivened by an incredible guilloch\u00e9 surface workmanship. It features pseudo-arrow indexes in gold, flanked by triangular dots with luminescent paste. The date window is framed at 3 o'clock. At the center of the dial at 12 o'clock is the arch-shaped writing \"Vacheron Constantin Geneve\" placed under the gold Maltese Cross. At 6 o'clock the juxtaposed writing \"Chronometer Automatic\". At the bottom of the dial is the writing \"Swiss Made\" between the Sigma symbols. The hour and minute hands are baton-shaped with sloping profiles and have an insert for the luminescent paste. The seconds hand is flush with a large rectangular counterweight. This composition makes the face of the watch very modern. A perfect fusion of sportiness and elegance. Of course, another important design element is the integrated bracelet in solid 18K yellow gold, which is tightened to the short and folded lugs by slotted screws. It is composed of three links with a satin-finished surface and a mirror-polished profile, and is structured to softly wrap the wrist. The clasp is the rare first generation one, with a \"flip and slide-lock\" system that ends in an \"open\/closed\" mechanism and embellished with a sliding button with the Maltese Cross logo. An absolutely obsessive attention to detail. The automatic movement is the 1310 derived from Girard Perregaux, with 27 jewels and a bi-directional winding rotor with a solid gold semi-arch. The finishes are of high quality, with a cote de geneve surface and perlage on the base plate. This Vacheron Constantin Overseas ref. 42040, original in all its parts, is one of the most iconic and sought-after models, and it is very rare to find it in never-touched condition. A milestone in watchmaking of all time, powerful and elegant.","og_url":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/fr\/boutique\/vacheron-constantin-overseas-ref-42040-jumbo-18k-solid-yellow-gold-first-series-poids-total-environ-215g\/","og_site_name":"The Vintageur","article_modified_time":"2026-05-21T10:55:42+00:00","og_image":[{"width":960,"height":960,"url":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/VACHERON-CONSTANTIN-OVERSEAS-REF-42040_1_1-960x960.jpg","type":"image\/jpeg"}],"twitter_card":"summary_large_image","twitter_misc":{"Prix":"","Disponibilit\u00e9":"Rupture de stock"},"schema":{"@context":"https:\/\/schema.org","@graph":[{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/shop\/vacheron-constantin-overseas-ref-42040-jumbo-18k-solid-yellow-gold-first-series-total-weight-about-215g\/","url":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/shop\/vacheron-constantin-overseas-ref-42040-jumbo-18k-solid-yellow-gold-first-series-total-weight-about-215g\/","name":"Vacheron Constantin Overseas Ref 42040 Jumbo 18k or jaune massif Premi\u00e8re S\u00e9rie. - Le Vintageur","isPartOf":{"@id":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/#website"},"primaryImageOfPage":{"@id":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/shop\/vacheron-constantin-overseas-ref-42040-jumbo-18k-solid-yellow-gold-first-series-total-weight-about-215g\/#primaryimage"},"image":{"@id":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/shop\/vacheron-constantin-overseas-ref-42040-jumbo-18k-solid-yellow-gold-first-series-total-weight-about-215g\/#primaryimage"},"thumbnailUrl":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/VACHERON-CONSTANTIN-OVERSEAS-REF-42040_1_1.jpg","datePublished":"2026-01-28T09:42:36+00:00","dateModified":"2026-05-21T10:55:42+00:00","description":"SPECIFICATIONS Superbe Vacheron Constantin Overseas ref 42040 Jumbo 18k or jaune massif premi\u00e8re s\u00e9rie cadran sigma des ann\u00e9es 1990 jamais polie en excellente condition.

ANALYSE Il s'agit d'une montre iconique, pierre angulaire de l'histoire de Vacheron Constantin de la seconde moiti\u00e9 des ann\u00e9es 90. Cette r\u00e9f\u00e9rence est la toute premi\u00e8re s\u00e9rie du mod\u00e8le Overseas sorti en 1996. Cette montre est dot\u00e9e d'un bo\u00eetier tr\u00e8s solide et compact de 37 mm \u00e0 profil circulaire sur lequel est int\u00e9gr\u00e9e une lunette tr\u00e8s caract\u00e9ristique : elle a une forme ronde avec huit \u00e9l\u00e9ments g\u00e9om\u00e9triques en saillie. Le \"rythme\" du design de cet \u00e9tonnant bo\u00eetier est donn\u00e9 par ces \u00e9l\u00e9ments qui jouent avec les huit n\u00e9gatifs respectifs, donnant un effet de lumi\u00e8re et d'obscurit\u00e9 sur toute la surface sup\u00e9rieure et lat\u00e9rale du bo\u00eetier. Sur le c\u00f4t\u00e9 droit se trouve la magnifique couronne \u00e0 vis originale avec le logo de la Croix de Malte, qui est ins\u00e9r\u00e9e entre les \u00e9paulements de protection typiques des montres de plong\u00e9e.
