Unlocking the Archive: Database of Vacheron

"Sharing my ongoing research into the serial numbers for Vacheron & Constantin Kriegsmarine observation watches. Here is the database I’ve been cataloging so far. Any feedback or additional entries would be greatly appreciated!"

I do not want to be too correct , BUT:

a) Kriegsmarine is correct and not "Kreigsmarine"
b) one check - one misery:

mov. 450715 / case 284656 / Silver

What's the point of this list?

Interesting project. Here is one that surfaced on a norwegian forum
years ago. No more info than this crappy pictures, but worth to mention IMO

It’s a start of a search for a missing watch of my families we have been searching for last 3-4 years. Whilst I was searching I stumbled upon a lack of information and a very interesting and amazing story bit of history what I think hasn’t been documented or isn’t known by the public but is a such a great importance to the second biggest and most luxurious Watch manufacturer in the world why are they so cheap? Why are they not looked after? I thought about all cared about? Especially the German navy examples I think I will just stick to that pronunciation of the kriegsMarine. My apologies my friend. I am now on a mission to purchase and restore back to best condition as possible and trace and find the history and stories behind the individual examples if I can find them to purchase them I would like to have an exhibition show what travel travels the world showing off this particular
162 calibre v&c pocket watches. I have money straight away ready to buy if anyone could help a young enthusiast with a horological passion just for these watches

Hi mate
I have reviewed everything now and one thing I’m sure of !! Is that I am 100% sure that the last seen location of mine and my family’s missing M9150 watch, was Roger jones in Chester county Conwy auction in July 2025. progress on the research as attached and also the leagle investigation is underway also to finding my lost family treasure.
I can’t give up this search and i am genuinely solely dedicated everyday to researching these things basically hoping on soon i may Find it watch M9150. If anyone has it doing a swap for the same one is possible I have been able to buy some other watches such as 444646, aswell from the same production batch !!
money whatever it takes I’m going to not be the reason for why this watch left our family lineage!
This took years off mine and my dad’s life,
when we realised it was missing.
Anyways A lot more to come very soon.
Very interesting path my life has taken me down.
Thankyou for comments I’m a complete novice and only know about this specific kind of watch so apologies and any help or stories and knowledge anyone has about these watches and wants to talk share some info, I’d love to know more you can text me phone on +44843158264

It is not a 444 movement serial number therefore it was not within the first production batch when it was invented. Therefore, it is actually a later variant what has a gold in mechanism or looks like gold the earlier batch don’t have a gold in a mechanism
