History

The Overseas traces back to reference 222, unveiled by Vacheron Constantin in 1977 to mark its 222nd anniversary and designed by Jorg Hysek — the late entry from the Geneva manufacture within the trio of integrated-bracelet steel sports watches that also produced Audemars Piguet's Royal Oak (1972) and Patek Philippe's Nautilus (1976), both designed by Gérald Genta.

The 222 was produced until 1985 and served as the direct inspiration for the Overseas launch in 1996, which adopted the Maltese cross — Vacheron Constantin's historic emblem since the 19th century — as the bezel's central design motif. A second phase, in 2004, introduced a bracelet with half-Maltese-cross-shaped links and redesigned the crown and clasp around the same motif.

The collection's third and most recent phase arrived in 2016, with a fully redesigned case, a sapphire display back featuring six Maltese-cross elements over an integrated disk, and a bezel simplified from eight sides to six. That generation also brought the three-hand execution's diameter down from 42mm to 41mm, and debuted the in-house Calibre 5100, with a 22-carat gold oscillating weight decorated with a rose.

The most celebrated aspect of Phase 3 is the patented quick-release system between bracelet and strap — "easy-fit" — which lets the owner switch between steel, rubber, and leather without tools or a workshop visit, an unusual degree of versatility for a watch in this category.

Within that generation, the 4500V/110A-B126 is the silver-dial execution of the three-hand-and-date line, a direct sibling of variants in other dial colors sharing the same caliber and case architecture.

Frequently asked questions

Where does the Vacheron Constantin Overseas design come from?

It descends from reference 222 of 1977, designed by Jorg Hysek for the manufacture's 222nd anniversary, contemporary with Audemars Piguet's Royal Oak and Patek Philippe's Nautilus.

How much does a Vacheron Constantin Overseas 4500V/110A-B126 cost?

Cazador has no verified price observations for this reference. We do not estimate or invent a figure without our own PricePoints; this section activates once sufficient data exists.

What is the Overseas "easy-fit" system?

A patented mechanism that lets the wearer swap the steel bracelet for a rubber or leather strap — and back — without tools, introduced in the collection's 2016 redesign.

What movement powers the 4500V/110A-B126?

The in-house Calibre 5100, automatic, with roughly 60 hours of power reserve and a 22-carat gold oscillating weight decorated with a rose.

Why does the Overseas bracelet reference the Maltese cross?

The Maltese cross has been Vacheron Constantin's historic emblem since the 19th century; the bracelet introduced in 2004 adopted half-Maltese-cross-shaped links as a direct citation of that symbol.

Is the steel Overseas water resistant?

Yes, to 150 meters — a notable rating for a sports dress watch in this category, backed by a sealed sapphire display case back.

What size is the Phase 3 Overseas case?

41mm in diameter and 11mm thick in the three-hand-and-date execution, down from the 42mm of the collection's previous phase.
