The Overseas 4500V gives Vacheron Constantin’s sports watch a distinctly tactile character: the Maltese-cross-inspired bezel is echoed in the bracelet links, while polished edges catch the light against brushed surfaces. The blue dial is a particular draw, its lacquered finish shifting from deep navy to bright blue as you turn your wrist.
Introduced in 2016, this generation brought the in-house 5100 and a tool-free system for swapping between bracelet, rubber, and leather. Those changes make the watch feel genuinely adaptable rather than simply offering different ways to fasten it. Through the sapphire back, the gold rotor carries a wind-rose motif—a detail worth lingering over.
When choosing between generations, distinguish the 4500V from its successor, the 4520V, which has a slightly slimmer case and more tapered bracelet. On the 4500V, try the quick-release fittings and clasp adjustment; both are central to the pleasure of wearing it.
What owners love
- The bracelet-to-rubber swap is genuinely easy and needs no tools; owners often use both rather than treating the rubber as a spare. The bracelet’s small comfort adjustments are also useful when your wrist swells during the day.
- On the blue-dial version, the dial shifts from almost black to bright blue as the light changes. The contrast between the glossy outer section and the more textured center gives it depth that owners still enjoy after years of wear.
- The bracelet’s Maltese-cross-shaped links have a satisfying mix of brushed and polished surfaces, and it drapes comfortably around the wrist. It’s a big part of why owners enjoy this particular Overseas, not just the watch head.
Common Criticisms
- It can wear broader than the 41mm diameter suggests, especially on the bracelet, because of the case shape and the way the first links extend from it. Owners with smaller wrists sometimes find that footprint harder to live with than they expected.
