ANALISI<\/strong><\/p>\n

Si tratta di un orologio iconico, una pietra miliare della storia di Vacheron Constantin a partire dalla seconda met\u00e0 degli anni 90.<\/p>\n

Questa referenza \u00e8 la primissima serie del modello Overseas, uscito nel 1996.<\/p>\n

Questo orologio presenta una cassa dal profilo circolare di 37 mm, molto solida e compatta, su cui \u00e8 integrata una lunetta molto caratteristica: ha una forma rotonda con otto elementi geometrici sporgenti. Il \"ritmo\" nel design di questa straordinaria cassa \u00e8 dato da questi elementi che giocano con i rispettivi otto negativi, dando un effetto di chiaro-scuro su tutta la superficie superiore e laterale della cassa. Sul lato destro si trova la bella corona a vite originale con il logo della Croce di Malta, inserita tra le spalle protettive tipiche degli orologi subacquei.
\nL'Overseas \u00e8 infatti un orologio elegante ma con forti connotazioni sportive. L'impermeabilit\u00e0 della cassa \u00e8 garantita fino a 150 m (500 ft \/15 atm) ed \u00e8 assicurata da un fondello con otto viti. \u00c8 l'immagine speculare della lunetta e crea una coesione formale di grande intelligenza costruttiva e progettuale. Al centro del fondello esterno si trova la fantastica incisione del veliero Amerigo Vespucci, una delle navi pi\u00f9 belle e importanti mai costruite. Solca le onde del mare su cui spicca la parola \"Overseas\" in un'elegantissima grafica corsiva. Sulla cornice a forma di disco che racchiude l'incisione, si trova la scritta che ci ricorda che il movimento \u00e8 certificato ufficialmente come cronometro (COSC).<\/p>\n

Il quadrante Sigma \u00e8 un altro punto di forza di questo capolavoro di prima generazione. Ha una tonalit\u00e0 bianca chiara e pulita, ravvivata da un'incredibile lavorazione guilloch\u00e9 della superficie. Presenta indici a pseudo-freccia in oro, affiancati da punti triangolari con pasta luminescente. La finestrella della data \u00e8 incorniciata a ore 3. Al centro del quadrante, a ore 12, si trova la scritta a forma di arco \"Vacheron Constantin Geneve\" posta sotto la Croce di Malta in oro. A ore 6 la scritta giustapposta \"Chronometer Automatic\". Nella parte inferiore del quadrante si trova la scritta \"Swiss Made\" tra i simboli Sigma. Le lancette delle ore e dei minuti sono a forma di bastone con profili inclinati e presentano un inserto per la pasta luminescente. La lancetta dei secondi \u00e8 a filo con un grande contrappeso rettangolare.
\nQuesta composizione rende il quadrante dell'orologio molto moderno. Una perfetta fusione di sportivit\u00e0 ed eleganza.<\/p>\n

Naturalmente, un altro importante elemento di design \u00e8 il bracciale integrato in oro giallo massiccio 18 carati, serrato alle anse corte e ripiegate da viti a taglio. \u00c8 composto da tre maglie con superficie satinata e profilo lucidato a specchio, ed \u00e8 strutturato in modo da avvolgere morbidamente il polso. La chiusura \u00e8 quella rara di prima generazione, con un sistema \"flip and slide-lock\" che termina con un meccanismo \"aperto\/chiuso\" e impreziosita da un pulsante scorrevole con il logo della Croce di Malta. Un'attenzione ai dettagli assolutamente maniacale.<\/p>\n

Il movimento automatico \u00e8 il 1310 di Girard Perregaux, con 27 rubini e un rotore di carica bidirezionale con semiarco in oro massiccio. Le finiture sono di alta qualit\u00e0, con superficie in cote de geneve e perlage sulla platina.<\/p>\n

Questo Vacheron Constantin Overseas ref. 42040, originale in tutte le sue parti, \u00e8 uno dei modelli pi\u00f9 iconici e ricercati, ed \u00e8 molto raro trovarlo in condizioni mai toccate. Una pietra miliare dell'orologeria di tutti i tempi, potente ed elegante.<\/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.

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\/it\/negozio\/vacheron-constantin-overseas-ref-42040-jumbo-oro-giallo-massiccio-18k-prima-serie-peso-totale-circa-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":{"Prezzo":"","Disponibilit\u00e0":"Esaurito"},"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 in oro giallo massiccio 18 carati Prima Serie. - Il 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":"SPECIFICHE Incredibile Vacheron Constantin Overseas ref 42040 Jumbo 18k oro giallo massiccio prima serie quadrante sigma del 1990 mai lucidato in condizioni eccellenti. Cassa Jumbo in oro giallo massiccio 18k diametro 37mm mai lucidata in ottime condizioni. 215 g. di peso totale con bracciale. Corona originale Vacheron. Vetro zaffiro.

ANALISI Si tratta di un orologio iconico, una pietra miliare della storia di Vacheron Constantin dalla seconda met\u00e0 degli anni '90. Questa referenza \u00e8 la primissima serie di Vacheron Constantin. Questa referenza \u00e8 la primissima serie del modello Overseas, uscito nel 1996. L'orologio presenta una cassa di 37 mm a profilo circolare, molto solida e compatta, sulla quale \u00e8 integrata una lunetta molto caratteristica: ha una forma rotonda con otto elementi geometrici sporgenti. Il \"ritmo\" nel design di questa straordinaria cassa \u00e8 dato da questi elementi che giocano con i rispettivi otto negativi, dando un effetto di chiaro-scuro su tutta la superficie superiore e laterale della cassa. Sul lato destro si trova la bella corona a vite originale con il logo della Croce di Malta, inserita tra le spalle protettive tipiche degli orologi subacquei. L'Overseas \u00e8 infatti un orologio elegante ma con forti connotazioni sportive. L'impermeabilit\u00e0 della cassa \u00e8 garantita fino a 150 m (500 ft \/15 atm) ed \u00e8 assicurata da un fondello con otto viti. \u00c8 l'immagine speculare della lunetta e crea una coesione formale di grande intelligenza costruttiva e progettuale. Al centro del fondello esterno si trova la fantastica incisione del veliero Amerigo Vespucci, una delle navi pi\u00f9 belle e importanti mai costruite. Solca le onde del mare su cui spicca la parola \"Overseas\" in un'elegantissima grafica corsiva. Sulla cornice a forma di disco che racchiude l'incisione, c'\u00e8 la scritta che ci ricorda che il movimento \u00e8 certificato ufficialmente come cronometro (COSC). Il quadrante Sigma \u00e8 un altro punto di forza di questo capolavoro di prima generazione. Ha una tonalit\u00e0 bianca chiara e pulita, ravvivata da un'incredibile lavorazione superficiale guilloch\u00e9. Presenta indici a pseudo-freccia in oro, affiancati da punti triangolari con pasta luminescente. La finestrella della data \u00e8 incorniciata a ore 3. Al centro del quadrante, a ore 12, si trova la scritta a forma di arco \"Vacheron Constantin Geneve\" posta sotto la Croce di Malta in oro. A ore 6 la scritta giustapposta \"Chronometer Automatic\". Nella parte inferiore del quadrante si trova la scritta \"Swiss Made\" tra i simboli Sigma. Le lancette delle ore e dei minuti sono a forma di bastone con profili inclinati e presentano un inserto per la pasta luminescente. La lancetta dei secondi \u00e8 a filo con un grande contrappeso rettangolare. Questa composizione rende il quadrante dell'orologio molto moderno. Una perfetta fusione di sportivit\u00e0 ed eleganza. Naturalmente, un altro importante elemento di design \u00e8 il bracciale integrato in oro giallo massiccio 18 carati, che \u00e8 serrato alle anse corte e ripiegate da viti a taglio. \u00c8 composto da tre maglie con superficie satinata e profilo lucidato a specchio, ed \u00e8 strutturato in modo da avvolgere morbidamente il polso. La chiusura \u00e8 quella rara di prima generazione, con un sistema \"flip and slide-lock\" che termina con un meccanismo \"aperto\/chiuso\" e impreziosita da un pulsante scorrevole con il logo della Croce di Malta. Un'attenzione ai dettagli assolutamente maniacale. Il movimento automatico \u00e8 il 1310 di Girard Perregaux, con 27 rubini e rotore di carica bidirezionale con semiarco in oro massiccio. Le finiture sono di alta qualit\u00e0, con superficie in cote de geneve e perlage sulla platina. Questo Vacheron Constantin Overseas ref. 42040, originale in tutte le sue parti, \u00e8 uno dei modelli pi\u00f9 iconici e ricercati, ed \u00e8 molto raro trovarlo in condizioni mai toccate. Una pietra miliare dell'orologeria di tutti i tempi, potente ed elegante.","breadcrumb":{"@id":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/shop\/vacheron-constantin-overseas-ref-42040-jumbo-18k-solid-yellow-gold-first-series-total-weight-about-215g\/#breadcrumb"},"inLanguage":"it-IT","potentialAction":[{"@type":"ReadAction","target":["https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/shop\/vacheron-constantin-overseas-ref-42040-jumbo-18k-solid-yellow-gold-first-series-total-weight-about-215g\/"]}]},{"@type":"ImageObject","inLanguage":"it-IT","@id":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/shop\/vacheron-constantin-overseas-ref-42040-jumbo-18k-solid-yellow-gold-first-series-total-weight-about-215g\/#primaryimage","url":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/VACHERON-CONSTANTIN-OVERSEAS-REF-42040_1_1.jpg","contentUrl":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/VACHERON-CONSTANTIN-OVERSEAS-REF-42040_1_1.jpg","width":2013,"height":2013},{"@type":"BreadcrumbList","@id":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/shop\/vacheron-constantin-overseas-ref-42040-jumbo-18k-solid-yellow-gold-first-series-total-weight-about-215g\/#breadcrumb","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"name":"Home","item":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"name":"Shop","item":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/it\/negozio\/"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":3,"name":"Vacheron Constantin Overseas Ref 42040 Jumbo 18k solid yellow gold First Series."}]},{"@type":"WebSite","@id":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/#website","url":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/","name":"Il Vintageur","description":"La vostra collezione di orologi su misura","publisher":{"@id":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/#organization"},"potentialAction":[{"@type":"SearchAction","target":{"@type":"EntryPoint","urlTemplate":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/?s={search_term_string}"},"query-input":{"@type":"PropertyValueSpecification","valueRequired":true,"valueName":"search_term_string"}}],"inLanguage":"it-IT"},{"@type":"Organization","@id":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/#organization","name":"Il Vintageur","url":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","inLanguage":"it-IT","@id":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/#\/schema\/logo\/image\/","url":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/logo-dark.svg","contentUrl":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/logo-dark.svg","width":392,"height":28,"caption":"The Vintageur"},"image":{"@id":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/#\/schema\/logo\/image\/"},"sameAs":["https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/vintageur\/"]}]},"product_price_currency":"EUR","og_availability":"out of stock","product_availability":"out of stock","product_retailer_item_id":"794","product_condition":"new"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/39668","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=39668"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/39668\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":63217,"href":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/39668\/revisions\/63217"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/63216"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=39668"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_brand?post=39668"},{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=39668"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thevintageur.com\/it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=39668"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
