Collectors value this reference for its cloisonné enamel dials, which depict bird illustrations inspired by John James Audubon’s Birds of America. The 38mm 18k yellow gold case features a stepped bezel and teardrop lugs, housing the ultra-thin automatic caliber 1120, a movement based on the Jaeger-LeCoultre 920. Production was limited, with individual dial motifs often restricted to editions of 10 to 25 pieces. On the secondary market, these watches typically trade in the $40,000 to $70,000 range depending on the specific bird depicted and the condition of the enamel. A notable variant is the \"Blue Jay\" model, which appeared at major auctions like Christie’s, confirming the reference's status as a significant example of 20th-century decorative metiers d'art."}, "listing_stats": {"count": 0, "median": 0, "low": 0, "high": 0}, "listings": [], "auction_lots": [{"slug": "vacheron-constantin-43060-2019", "brand": "Vacheron Constantin", "reference": "43060", "model": "Historiques Audubon", "case_material": "18k Yellow Gold", "hammer_usd": 38200, "year_sold": 2019, "venue": "Sotheby's Hong Kong", "lot_summary": "Features a cloisonné enamel dial by Muriel Séchaud inspired by John J.
