This is an absolutely beautiful watch...would you mind telling me a little bit about it?

Thanks. It's a 2002 model with their in-house caliber 1400, the first manual wind 3 hand movement VC made in-house since 1938 when they started using JLC ebauches. VC bought a movement maker formerly called Haut de Gamme in 1998 to make their own in-house components.

It's 36 mm wide and less than 7 mm tall even with the small addition in height from the end of the curved down lugs. The dial is engine turned by hand the old school way, and it's the primary reason I bought the watch. The hands are a nice touch - one side is frosted, the other polished. The fact that it has the Gen猫va seal was icing on the cake, but means it has to go above and beyond with quality and finishing.
