Vacheron k1072/1 mvmt help

Recommended Posts

Hi guys, do any of you know what I can do with a vacheron k1072/1 movement? It's in a few pieces but I have all the parts. Is this something I can use? I know it's from the late 50's early 60's but I'm not sure if it has any practical application today, I don't like dress watches, anyone know if any early sports model used this? Thanks

I'm also more into sports watches. The Vacheron 6782, one of my favourite references, used this movement. I think it'd be nearly impossible to get parts though. However, there are plenty of Vacheron dials on eBay... I'd just build a completely custom piece with this movement and a VC dial.

Thanks, I looked it up and it's very cool, like the rolex turn o graph's. I was hoping it was for a 222 jumbo, but it's not :(

It came with a dial, champagne that matches that model you referenced.. I grabbed it from my local watchmaker thinking I could make something old and sporty and automatic! He loaned it to me to do the research, I'll give it back since it's not something I can use
