Vacheron Constantin just released the new Historiques 222 in stainless steel this past Monday, January 13th, 2025 and I was able to peruse the new watch with the team from Vacheron this Wednesday in New York City. Now that I have seen the watch in the metal, I can give you my honest review as usual. This reissue like its 18K yellow gold counterpart was one of the most awaited watches from the brand.

Insider: Vacheron Constantin Historiques 222. Like Holding a 222 'Safe Queen' from 1977.
Vacheron Constantin presents a contemporary re-edition of the 37 mm 18K yellow gold 222 "Jumbo”. The 222 was an emblematic sporty-chic model launched in 1977 that marked a turning point in Vacheron Constantin's classic creations and that was designed by Jorg Hysek —not by Gérald Genta as many like to believe. For this reinterpretation, Vacheron Constantin maintained all the original design cues down to the case size but added a new type of clasp —triple-blade rather than double-blade— to the bracelet, as well as a display case back that allows for a full view of the new-generation calibre 2455/2.
