In past SIHH 2016, many classic watch models released from different watch brands, Vacheron Constantin is just one of them, the Overseas "luxury sport watch collection" was always Vacheron Constantin's answer to the Audemars Piguet Royal Oak or the replica Patek Philippe Nautilus.
Of course, one major difference was in that it was not designed by Gerald Genta - a detail that, according to Vacheron Constantin during our private conversations, is not often realized by people who cover the Overseas, mistakenly believing it to be a Genta design.
The calibre 5100 movement has a power reserve of 60 hours and finally offers 4Hz (28,800 bph) of operating frequency. This is up from the much less competitive 3Hz of the outgoing movement. The 4Hz operating frequency is part of the 5100 movement, as well as the 5200 chronograph, and smaller 5300. Affixed to the automatic movement is a "compass-inspired" (given the engraved design) 22k gold rotor, and you can view the movement through the sapphire crystal exhibition case back.
