The 1978 Vacheron Constantin Ultra Thin ref. 2045Q pairs a matte midnight-black dial with a textured 18ct white gold cushion case. Measuring 33 × 37.5mm, the case has compact dress-watch proportions, with a shape and finish that give it a distinctive presence on the wrist.
The dial carries the Vacheron Constantin signature and logo, with two silver-coloured sword hands displaying the hours and minutes. The matte black finish draws attention to the hands and the texture of the white gold around it. The case is in excellent condition, with light marks on the caseback and a scratch-free crystal.
Inside is Vacheron Constantin’s 36-jewel automatic Calibre K1121. The movement has been serviced, including cleaning and lubrication. The watch is fitted with a black leather strap and comes with a Vacheron Constantin travel case.

Things to consider:
The watches we sell are all either Manual or Automatic movements. Knowing this is an important aspect of your purchase, as the movement type defines how the watch will run. Check out the above description to confirm the movement type, then head to the "So What Now?" section of our site for further information on movements; advice on looking after your vintage watch; and answers to some more frequently asked questions!
Due to the nature of vintage timepieces, their age means that 100% waterproofing cannot be guaranteed.
