Can I ask where you bought this beauty from. The blue is incredible .

Any TD can get you blue dial but if you want VC Overseas 2nd edition on the bracelet you need to wait - they are making bracelet and it should be released soon.
You can get VC Overseas 3rd edition on the bracelet but that is not made by JJF, still a kick ass watch.

Am I the only one that notices the obvious flaw ? The reps have "geneve" with an accent, while the gen has no accent whatsoever

Overseas early 2nd edition has accent there. VC took it off later on in the production so accent on that rep is totally accurate.

3rd edition don't have any accent and also later production of 2nd. They took it off I think a couple of years before releasing 3rd edition.

2nd edition (it also comes in blue dial without texturized surface)

And here is 3rd edition with no accent:

Do you know when bracelet will be released?
Angus said they are working on it. I'm guessing it doesn't take too long to rep the bracelet.

I Just don't understand why they keeping replicate the old model, instead of improving the new one...

Unbelievable...

Because the new one looks like garbage. I'd buy my girl the new one because it's way too feminine. This watch has a better overall aesthetic. Still slim but more pronounced case and bracelet. Love the detail work on the dial vs a boring flat dial with sunburst. Love the dw positioning. Just overall a much better put together watch.

Your statement is like saying why is TC still working on the old subs or any maker. That my friend is because there is an obvious market for it. They are in this to make money, not to appease you.

Exactly.
VC Overseas 2 (older) looks way better than new edition. I love texturized dial, position of date window, hands and Arabic numeral hour markers at 3, 6, 9, and 12 o'clock. It just looks way better than plain dial on newest edition.

I usually like watches with simple dials but in this case I will go with older Overseas. New one is just too boring.

The new one is simply classy and elegant.
Is the renew of first version after the fall of seconds version.
This is a statement, period.

A real man doesn't need dimension to dimostrate that is a man, otherwise we can come back to elementary school and measure with a ruler who has bigger dimension...

In any case whoever define a Vacheron Constantin "garbage" (no matter which model) has a watch culture of a monkey.

BTW feel free to buy whatever you want without judging others tastes.

English must not be your first language because your interpretation of my post lacks any accuracy.

First off I'm not judging anyone's individual taste, if you want to wear a hello kitty edition watch that's your decision. I'm merely giving my personal opinion on a watchmakers design direction. Me liking the old overseas vs the new has nothing to do with bulk. You've obviously never held the gen of the two in hand. I think the emblematicness of vacheron shines in the old design, each little detail is more pronounced, more intricate little details. The new one lacks refinement. Looks half assed.

To blindly like a watch based of it being a "vacheron" shows who the sheep is in this argument. I don't buy watches or any material possession based off who made it "the name" behind it. I buy them because they appeal to me. Every company has missteps and products that don't do as well, nothing is perfect.

Lastly I'll teach you some English as a parting gift. If youre going to tell someone to not judge others and then call them a "monkey" in the same message that's called being a hypocrite. Don't comment on posts you can't understand I didn't judge anyone's personal taste. Obviously my entire post went way over your head.
