【comment】

"Flies words" in the 1960s more popular and adopted by many brands. This Vacheron Constantin self-winding watch was produced in 1960, and the design of the timepiece incorporates the early Flies Word inspirations but did not copy the text as it was, just reversing the order of the letters and giving a new feel of flies.

This reminds me of the 1960s watchmaking industry in Switzerland, a very learning style, such as the early nations woodpecker winding institutions, Longines modified by its own 19AS movement above. Vacheron Constantin watch is very popular, but the performance in the secondary market seems not always how to force, the price has always been on the go.
