It seems I’m not the only one who thinks the price range quoted by the op is not right for the vco. Anyone seen vco brand new or mint below 15k?

Blue dials seem to be 17-19K now. Unless I don't know where to look.

I swear they were 14-15K just a few months ago when I was looking. No idea what is going on. They were a helluva deal at 14K.

yes true, last month there was one on chrono24 ask price 15k blue dial and brand new, but it was in the UAE (the only set back) otherwise would have been excellent find.

VC all the way for me. Far more elegant and rarer watch.

VC but I have small wrists. If it was 116600 SD then I would vote that.

Vacheron. Almost got the white non chrono but went with the blue dial chrono instead.

Of this two, the VC. I love the SD43 but the VC is next level.

I would definitely choose the SD43
I find that Vacheron incredibly boring.

Yes you got a Beauty. Is the non chrono dial really white or silveryish with an off color chapter ring?

While I don’t think this particular match up is apples to apples, as the SD43 is a “sports type” watch and the VC is an “everyday watch”.

And while I love the SD43, my vote goes for the VC all day long. Just a super classy, super sensible, easy to dress up or down, all around watch.

Since you ask what I would buy, I would and did the SD43. I have looked at the VC, its nice but not at the price for what you get.

My preference is for the overseas, especially in blue.

I think the SD is too thick and it overlaps with my sub but that's just my opinion. I just haven't been bitten by the SD bug yet.

I have and love the SD43 but if I didn’t dive with it, the blue dial VC would be my choice.

Definitely the Sea Dweller! For the VC I prefer the Overseas Chrono.

The VC OS never did it for me. Nice watch, but I went with the Royal Oak when they came out with the 41 mm 15400 instead.
