Easily one of the best overviews of the Overseas on KZread! Thanks for giving proper credit to VC as it’s own watch and not just an alternative or substitute for the Nautilus and Royal Oak. 👏🏼

How wonderful - a ‘review’ by someone who bought the watch, owns it, isn’t going to flip it and doesn’t go on and on about ‘investment potential’ etc etc. congratulations on the beautiful watch and your analysis of it.

Well over a year with it, prior to prices spiking on these, and have no intention of letting it go. I buy watches to enjoy them, not because of some "investment potential". Capital can be gained through other means - I dont want to ruin my passion for this hobby by focusing on value. To each their own however 🙌🏻

I don't care you bought a watch

I love the VC Overseas line, I always thought the Gen 2 was an awesome piece but the Gen 3 is an absolutely gorgeous and versatile watch with beautiful hand finish work from a brand with amazing history to back it up, enjoy your VC Sir, that dial is really something else👍🏻

Awesome! Thanks for your thoughts and opinions. I have an appreciation for both The Overseas and the Royal Oak. They both have great features that compliment the buyer's wants and possibly their ideals about their purchase. I really enjoy hearing what you think about the watches you present and the MODs you share! ~Thanks!

Gen 3 is definitely the most aesthetically pleasing of the three. Congratulations on your new watch.

You make a fantastic point regarding people rooting for the Overseas only because it’s the underdog. On similar comparison videos, you’ll see that the top comments often consist of people bashing the Royak Oak and acting like the Overseas is somehow head and shoulders above the AP. I like both (but would give the edge to the RO because I’m biased), and those types of comments make me question whether or not those people have handled both in person.

Great review ! Love all the comparisons! As an AP fan too the overseas is also on my list! Keep up the great reviews !

Great explanation and the insights you gave on the individual merits of each watch is on point. Subscribed!

i just came across your channel and that is the best video I have seen on the Overseas, thank you.

This is a great review. Spot on. 👍 Having now own the Overseas Dualtime, I agree that the Overseas more than holds its own ground. In some ways, it surpass the RO.

You have inspired me to get this in my collection over the next 24 months! You have awesome taste in fine watches! 👌🏿

Thanks for the great review! I like the Overseas better...so I bought one...at retail from the NYC Boutique...that same day. Hard to believe in today’s market of overhyped watches. Wear yours in good health.

Great review, really like the style and transparency. Question - where did you find out about the finishing techniques on this watch? Is that officially documented somewhere?

Just subbed too your channel because of this amazing VC 4500v and well Royal oak blue dial is on my wanted list too!

A true connoisseur. I appreciate this video a lot. Thanks for making it!

Nice piece. What I like most about it is the case and bracelet design. Dual time looks exquisite.

I own a Girard Perregaux Laureato, and it's also always judged as an less expensive alternative, rather than a great watch on its own merits. I often hear that I got it just because I can't afford a RO, but in fact I could afford a RO, but I appreciate the GP more. The smoother look gives a dressier look and it's more usable due to the higher WR rating. Much like the VC! Appreciate the video, great job 👍

In my humble opinion, the oldest of the 3 members of the Holy Trinity, established in 1755.. The Vacheron Constantin Overseas, with the coveted Geneva Seal, (specially for me the 3-hand black dial) is the most elegant of the sport watches from these three houses.

I buy my VC 4500v blue dial because i really love the look, the logo, the bracelets and the quick-change straps. It's my grail watch though I owned more than 30 watches.

i hope one day i can get one of your seiko mods off you MS stopped my watch journey before it started couldnt buy what i really wanted luxury watch .i saw the watch you made that was on producer michael that deep sea color seiko is amazing .you are right about the vc it is awesome

This Vacheron Constantin Overseas 4500V is simply stunning! That blue is so deep! The way you can quickly change out the integrated bracelet to other straps is so convenient too. I'm kind of shocked though that this doesn't have hacking in the movement. I also kind of wish there was text on the 6 o'clock to maybe balance out the text at the 12 o'clock, but that's more of personal preference on my end.

Have a Royal Oak and a second gen. overseas, Ithe overseas is more of an everyday watch while the Royal Oak is less versatile and much shinier. Love both.

Well said. The overseas is a very beautiful watch imho.

Love this watch great pick, out of my price range if you could do a video on alternate watches with the same aesthetics would be cool

Congrats - it’s gorgeous!

I actually went the reverse of the typical route. Got sick of being on the waitlist for a blue overseas and went grey market on a Royal Oak now that the market has simmered down. Love both watches and 100% agree that each are their own and not replacements for each other! Still patiently waiting on the overseas

Great video. I might pull the trigger soon on the 7900v. I want the 4500v but my guy says all sold out. I'm still not sure if I should wait for 4500v like next year or just get the 7900v if the sales rep calls me. Nervous. Thought?

Beautiful watch. I went over to Target over the weekend to buy one, but they only offered Timex and Casio. My mom is taking me to Costco this weekend and maybe they will have one. Thank you for the video.

Beautiful with the rubber strap .... AP, PP and VC, are all as good as each other, but in different ways .... In 2016, I went out to buy a Limited Edition AP, that just didn't look like anything PP or VC did and still doesn't, so I suppose my RO, OS, QE II Cup, Hong Kong 2016 Chronograph in Pink Gold, Forged Carbon and Ceramic is still on its own ....

Damn, you called it..

Pretty cool watch, great video. Enjoy.

Brilliant summary Lume, I may just have to purchase one of these…

Is this VC blue dial easy to obtain from a AD or will there be a waitlist ?

what an awesome watch, congrats on your purchase

I have a modest watch collection but not watches of the caliber of the Overseas. My issue is I want to wear watches but I don’t want to scratch them.

Honestly I think it is a plus that the overseas isn't overhyped. I might be able to get one in an AD soon.

They both look gorgeous! Cheers! 😀

6:42 Is the 41mm Overseas really almost the same size as the 37mm Royal Oak? Lug to lug looks so similar in length.

I recall you had smaller wrists, the VC OS be too large for you due to its lug to lug? Some more wrist shots and wrist specs would have been great. Great video!

Is the oversea bigger than your 15450st in terms of fit?

Beautiful watch, one of my favorites.

I feel the Overseas is the best of the 3 you mentioned. And on top of it, I like the fact most don't know VC like AP or PP. It's not about having to flex, but being able to and only those of us obsessed in horology would know. Now if I could justify it without having to sell my entire watch collection to buy one lol! Great review!

Stunning Watch with a simply beautiful dial

your Vacheron is the better watch because Vacheron is pure class.

Does it has the second hacking?

Great review

Have the Royal Oak 15500 black dial and have the blue dial VC 7900 dual time. Love them both, but my VC has been getting more wrist time. I actually prefer the alligator strap, but use the rubber strap more often as I can pretty much wear it anywhere. One thing is that I have to disagree about it being being easier to get than AP and Patek. Remember VC makes only 20,000 watches a year. AP and Patek make over 40-50,000 watches per year. Thus at retail, it’s just as hard if not harder to get an Overseas. However, as it’s not as hyped, grey market prices are lower.

Great watch and review. What is your say on the VC pink gold 4500V/110R-B705. Is it worth the retail price?

I think the pink gold blue dial combination is one of the nicest precious metal designs... even though I'm not a precious metal guy.

Did you know the Richmond Group, owns Vacheron Constantin! In 1996, IWC, A Lange and Sohne, Cartier, Baum Mercier, Jaeger LeCoultre, MountBlanc, Panerai, Piaget! Whereas Audemars Piguet is family owned from 1875! Overseas 4500V is beautiful!

Which size is this Royal Oak?

very informative video.

It's a nicer looking watch than the royal oak in my opinion, due to the depth of colour on the dial. The overseas looks fantastic on all of the provided straps. Congratulations on you purchase, may you wear it in good health!

Sick watches you got here bro, enjoy them!

Why the fook ain`t the VC got anti-reflective coating on the glass????
