Will this fit you? I’m concerned the DT won’t fit on my 6.5. Watchbox says the bracelet doesn’t drop straight down as the endlink (s) now out similar to a 15202

I've always liked the Vacheron overseas chronograph but the beating you take on depreciation without a massive AD or Grey discount is to much for me to stomach.

I do really like the VCO line, I tried a Dual Time (white) and was really charmed with it. Haven't seen a blue dial yet so I do not have a opinion on that one
But I consider the VCO a replacement for a Rolex Sky-Dweller, not a PP. It is a BIG watch |

Pros? - Rubber strap ( I LOVE my 5167, and I think that I’d wear the 4500v with rubber) - Overall strap changing system - VC is a great brand - Cost: $17k (from grey dealer) vs 45k NEW (28k delta) - 150m water resistance - |

I am also considering getting a 4500V now as it seems harder and harder to get now. Better get one now for list price than having to pay premium.

I think you will ultimately hate yourself a little bit for settling on something that you are struggling to talk yourself into.
There are some great arguments in this thread on the merits of the VC... But the heart wants what the heart wants. I would either pay the premium in the gray for the 5711 (what I did), or sit tight and do nothing. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Personally, I prefer the look of the VC Overseas versus the Nautilus.
I know it’s just personal preference, but I’ll never be able to get over the extension on the right part of the watch head, I know its purpose is to offset the crown and crown guards on the other side but to me it’s rubbish I do love the Aquanaut and many Calatrava PPs but no Nautilus for me.

We’ll see if I’m wrong, but I feel like this is a great buy (I have 0 connection, just bought my own)
https://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-Vachero...b11c%7Ciid%3A1 I really do feel that the overseas is now at the level of the Nautilus and ROO. |

I've owned the 5711 white and a 5164a for ages but the Overseas dual time blue dial with a black rubber strap is the one I keep reaching for day after day..
I know it looks huge in the photo but it's very proportionate on a 6.6 inch wrist |

I'm a big fan of the newest gen VC Overseas, but I would only buy it if you LOVE it, not instead of something else.

100%. I can handle a premium around 15-25%, depending on the watch. However, Beyond that, I'm out. The value proposition simply isn't there.

The used 5711 White loses on resale higher ($$$) than the used 4500v. 5711 White Grey price ~ $ 70_75,000, used ~ $ 60,000. Vacheron 4500v Grey price $ 17500, used ~ $ 13 500.

I feel way ahead of the game since I bought this new 4500V just over 2 mos. ago. I did get an exceptional deal but I would have paid msrp if I had too. It's just that great of a piece. Believe me you won't be sorry...
