Vacheron Constantin Historiques Cornes de Vache ๐ฎ 1955 mini review
Jan 20, 2023,19:47 PM
Today I just received the Vacheron Constantin Historiques Cornes de Vache ๐ฎ so I thought I would share my "mini review".
Allright sometimes watches arrive close to each other ๐
it was not planned but just after my latest Moser I now finally received also this gorgeous Vacheron
The size (38.5) works very well because the cow's horn lugs make it wear a big bigger which I like a lot. I was always fascinated by the Lemania 2310 (of Patek 5070 fame ๐
but also Breguet, Omega 321 with a different finish etc.) which is probably one of the best chronograph movevements ever made. Vacheron finish is stunning.
Here we have the Vacheron Caliber 1142 in all its beauty
I was in love with this particular watch since Hodinkee launched the steel version in 2017. I think that somehow thanks to them Vacheron decided to release this steel version Ref.5000H/000A-B582 that is perfect.
The watch weights 62 grams (the gold version is 85, I think the platinum much more) ans is very comfortable. The Serapian strap very comfortable and more casual than the usual alligator straps.
Here a comparison with the H. Moser Endeavour Tourbillon (42mm)
A lot of ๐for the Corne de Vache ๐ฎ which I know is very popular in this forum (thanks to the various pics posted by owners that inspired me for years).
Thanks for reading/looking at this mini review ๐ Let me know how do you like it ?๐
