Reference 87172\/000J-9512 brings a practical automatic movement and date complication into this traditional framework, pairing a warm 18K yellow gold case with a restrained silver-toned opaline dial. The result is an elegant everyday dress watch that retains the formality of the Traditionnelle while offering greater convenience than its manually wound counterparts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy This Reference Matters\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Traditionnelle 87172\/000J-9512 is defined by a disciplined and beautifully balanced dial. Its silver-toned opaline surface provides a softly textured backdrop for applied yellow gold baton hour markers, creating a warm contrast that complements the surrounding case. The restrained markers and slender hands preserve the clean visual language associated with classical Vacheron Constantin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA subsidiary seconds display introduces traditional watchmaking character, while the date aperture adds useful everyday functionality. Importantly, these additional indications are integrated without overwhelming the composition. The result remains unmistakably a dress watch, but one designed with the practical requirements of regular wear in mind.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt its heart is the automatic Calibre 2455, a manufacture movement that combines self-winding convenience with the refined construction expected of Vacheron Constantin. Offering approximately 40 hours of power reserve, it provides a compact mechanical foundation for the time, subsidiary seconds, and date indications while allowing the case to retain its elegant proportions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOn the Wrist\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAt 38 mm, the Traditionnelle 87172\/000J-9512 occupies an especially versatile position within classical dress-watch sizing. The 18K yellow gold case has enough presence to feel substantial without overpowering the wrist, while the silver-toned dial keeps the overall appearance bright and balanced. A brown leather strap complements the warmth of the yellow gold naturally, and the matching 18K yellow gold pin buckle preserves the traditional character of the watch. It is formal enough for tailored dress yet restrained enough to work comfortably as an everyday precious-metal watch.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition \u0026amp; Transparency\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis example features a 38 mm case crafted from 18K yellow gold, paired with a silver-toned opaline dial displaying applied yellow gold baton hour markers, subsidiary seconds, and a date indication. It is powered by the automatic Calibre 2455, offering approximately 40 hours of power reserve, and is fitted to a brown leather strap with an 18K yellow gold pin buckle. Particular attention should be given to preservation of the case geometry and original surface finishes, dial and applied-marker condition, movement performance, correct operation and alignment of the date mechanism, small-seconds functionality, strap and buckle condition, and overall set completeness—communicated strictly on verified information.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy It Belongs in a Collection\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Traditionnelle 87172\/000J-9512 appeals to collectors seeking classical Vacheron Constantin design with the convenience of an automatic movement. Its combination of yellow gold, opaline silver tones, subsidiary seconds, and date creates more visual and functional interest than a pure time-only dress watch without moving into overt complication. It also demonstrates the versatility of the Traditionnelle formula: traditional in appearance and construction, yet practical enough for frequent wear. Within a thoughtfully curated collection, it serves as an elegant representation of understated Genevan haute horlogerie.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eClosing\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Vacheron Constantin Traditionnelle 87172\/000J-9512 is a beautifully composed expression of classical everyday watchmaking. Combining its elegantly proportioned 18K yellow gold case, restrained silver-toned opaline dial, traditional small seconds, practical date display, and automatic Calibre 2455, it captures the enduring appeal of the Traditionnelle collection—refined without excess, mechanically accomplished, and grounded in the quiet elegance that has defined Vacheron Constantin for generations.\u003c!-- notionvc: d339c259-7c57-48d8-9eed-c22ce2533132 --\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCase Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 38 mm\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e 18K Yellow Gold\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Silver-Toned Opaline Dial with Applied Yellow Gold Baton Hour Markers, Small Seconds and Date Display\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStrap:\u003c\/strong\u003e Brown Leather Strap with 18K Yellow Gold Pin Buckle\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePower Reserve:\u003c\/strong\u003e 40 Hours\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMovement:\u003c\/strong\u003e Automatic (Calibre 2455)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003eShipments are delivered under Delivered Duty Unpaid (DDU) terms, with duties and taxes payable by the recipient.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h5\u003e","brand":"TimeTells","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53977758400812,"sku":null,"price":17888.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0919\/4982\/6348\/files\/87172J-1193854-1.jpg?v=1787726487","url":"https:\/\/www.timetells.shop\/products\/vacheron-constantin-traditionnelle-87172-000j-9512-silver-dial","provider":"TimeTells","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
