I bought my 4500V new @2 mos. ago and noticed no rotor noise after trying to hear it as some people have said the same as you. Not sure of their results hopefully someone will also chime in.

Mine is loud too and I compared it with other new ones: all sound the same, there are some videos if you want to compare the sound in the facebook group Vacheron Constantin. |

It's all normal. It's the ceramic ball bearings and glass case back not isolating the sound as good as a closed one.
I compared mine that I also bought new with other new ones and they all sound the same, pretty loud. There are some videos in the facebook group vacheron constantin if you want to compare. |

So what are you up for? Grand larceny? Is that Exhibit A? Surprised they’re still letting you wear it! |

Thank you @paca and @Nikirnic. I watched some FB videos last nicht and mine seems to sound the same. Guess that 22k Rotor with the bearings makes it a little louder :).
I will post some pictures later today. Gesendet von iPhone mit Tapatalk |

Hi, I read on VC FB Page that the watch doesn't come with an owner's manual. Is that true? The SA at the boutique where I put the deposit did mention that VC stopped providing the passport for Overseas at the end of last year and that the watches now come in more regular boxes (rather than the elaborate ones they first came in). But not having the owner's manual sounds a bit weird (though I guess you can go online and find them on their website). Just curious.

I purchased in December from a VC Boutique and received neither manual nor a USB stick. But it did come in a beautiful lacquered box

Ok. Last picture I promise. Tried the rubber strap and wore it for an extended period for the first time and it is by far the most comfortable way to wear this watch for me. The strap perfectly hugs my wrist.

My AD called me to tell me the blue auto came in. Went in and tried one yesterday and it looked like a damn frying pan on my 6.5 inch wrist
![]() For those of you with a 7+ wrist this is such a lovely piece. It wears so large for a 41... The lugs are so flat that the bracelet doesn't hug the wrist nicely for the smaller wristed gents. Result was the same with the rubber. |

Not sure I can concur on size. 6.2" wrist. Biggest I would go? Of course. Just. Almost hesitant to post this, since I was tempted to buy on the spot. But I will bc the pics still don't do it justice. This dial is out of this world, above the "deep" black and blue of the selfwinding (that I also tried on) in my opinion. It actually felt "smaller" than the 3 hander bc of the 1.8mm extra thickness. The proportions make this watch. Here goes:
(Yes I would get the small rubber strap, which they didn't have there. But sized bracelet was spot on.) ![]() ![]() Sent from my Pixel 2 using Tapatalk |

Sorry about the delay on the pictures! I love the blue 4500v!!!
All three straps are amazing and extremely comfortable. Unfortunately I might have to say goodbye for a bit to get it set correctly. The VCO is currently running between 12-14 seconds slow. I am not super into perfect time keeping (no hacking seconds after all) but almost a minute in 4 days seems way over the top. Does anyone have experience with the VC service? I had my second gen for a full revision which took 10 weeks. I hope this won’t take as long! ![]() Gesendet von iPhone mit Tapatalk |
