I introduced this watch before, a lot of people have shown their big interest in this replica watch because it has a great charm, which is a full stainless steel watch with vintage design features. The watch now is more popular than the other Vacheron Constantin replica watches like 4500V. There are several colors available, I recommend this one in yellow gold, it is the most classic VC 222.

The genuine watch is made with solid yellow gold, so this replica will have a difference in weight, genuine watch is more than 200 grams in weight, while this replica is about 150 grams. Even the replica is not made with solid gold, but the gold plating on the inner stainless steel is very thick to prevent from fading. The gold tone on the replica watch is very close to that on the genuine, after all its case uses real 18K yellow gold coating. The case diameter is exactly the same as genuine, while the case thickness on the replica is about 8.5mm, I measured it, please check the picture below. The genuine watch is about 7.9mm, that is not a big difference in case thickness.

The dial looks great, its golden color is exactly in line with the gold tone on the case, very uniform in style, I think this is a big reason for people to choose this Vacheron Constantin watch. On the replica dial, the slightly matt finish is like the dial finish on the genuine watch. The Malte logo of Vacheron Constantin is tri-dimensional in correct shape, just like the enlarged one on the right corner of the case. The date window has a golden frame, it has a black font in golden background, the date font is in correct thickness.

Why the case is thicker than that on the genuine watch? Because the replica uses a Japanese Miyota 9015 movement inside, it is not the original VC movement. However, the factory added very similar decoration on the movement plates and auto rotor, look at the big “222” on the auto rotor, it is nicely finished with a great tri-dimensional visual effect. Due to this movement, the case is 8.5mm, but that can be also acceptable for most people. By the way, the movement is very stable, which has a longer service life than most other movements used in replica watches.
