Vacheron Constantin Historiques American 1921

About this reference

The Vacheron Constantin Historiques American 1921 reference 82035/000R-9359 was introduced in 2008 and remained a core catalog offering until its replacement by the 1100S series in 2021. This reference features a 40mm 18k pink gold cushion-shaped case with a 45-degree diagonal dial orientation and a crown positioned at the upper right corner. Collectors value this model for its manual-wind Calibre 4400 AS, which provides a 65-hour power reserve and carries the Hallmark of Geneva. The dial is sandblasted silver with painted Arabic numerals and a small seconds sub-dial at the relative 3 o'clock position. On the secondary market, this reference typically trades between $28,000 and $35,000 depending on condition and provenance. While the 40mm version is the primary men's reference, the brand later introduced a 36.5mm variant (reference 1100S) to accommodate smaller wrist profiles while maintaining the same movement and aesthetic proportions.
