Vacheron Constantin Overseas 4500V
What is the Vacheron Constantin Overseas 4500V?
The 4500V is the three-hand automatic at the center of Vacheron Constantin's Overseas line: a 41 mm case on an integrated bracelet, built around the in-house calibre 5100, a self-winding movement with 37 jewels and a power reserve of about 60 hours, and water resistance to 150 metres. The reference comes in both of its case metals:
- 4500V/110A-B128: stainless steel, 11 mm thick, blue sunburst dial.
- 4500V/000R-B127: 18k rose gold, silver-toned dial.

Which variants of the 4500V are there, and how do you tell them apart?
The reference decodes itself, and its two variants demonstrate the pattern. The segment before the dash names the metal and bracelet configuration (/110A is steel on the bracelet; /000R is rose gold), and the code after it names the dial (B128 is the blue dial; B127 is the silver-toned dial). The Overseas is built around interchangeable wearing options, and the steel example's listed contents make the point concretely: its set includes all three factory options, the steel bracelet plus a rubber strap and a leather strap, alongside the inner and outer boxes, booklets, certificate of origin, warranty card, and hangtag. When you compare examples of this reference, compare the wearing options as carefully as the watch: a set missing two of its three straps is not the same set.
