Vacheron Constantin Legend Chronograph

The number 6087 appeared in the post-war golden age of gold watchmaking. Vacheron Constantin Historiques Cornes de vache 1955 is the modern stainless steel case of the legendary chronograph. And the new Cornes de vache is an interesting piece.
The new Vacheron Constantin history series Cornes de vache 1955 is the opposite of the overseas chronographs in the same catalog. Both watches are steel chronographs. For both models, they can replace comparable chronographs that Geneva colleague Patek Philippe cannot use. But this is aside.replica uhren Now let's go back to watch history. The original Cornes de vache reference number 6087 was first introduced in 1955, and the number is very small. Therefore, watches with characteristic lugs such as horns have now become one of the most sought-after antique Vacherons. In addition, don't forget to mention that 6087 is the watch factory's first waterproof chronograph. In short, reference number 6087 is an important watch.

Vacheron Constantin Historiques Cornes de vache 1955 Reference number 5000H / 000A-B582
Historiques Cornes de vache 1955 (reference number 5000H/000A-B582, 41,900 euros) is part of the Historiques series. In this series, we can also find, for example, the quirky "American 1921" and the complex "Calendrier Complet 1948". After two previous releases of Cornes de vache's 2015 platinum and 2016 rose gold, it is now time to use sober and practical functional steel. This steel case is waterproof to 30 meters, and has increased from 35.5 mm in 1955 to 38.5 mm. It is indeed the size of 2019.
Caliber 492 has been replaced by caliber 1142
In 1955, Vacheron Constantin installed manual winding movement 492 in model 6087. But (of course) this classic movement has been replaced by more modern and reliable products. This became the manual winding movement 1142. The timepiece counts at a conservative vibration of 21,600 per hour. The clock was completely invigorating and lasted 48 hours. This is a column of cylindrical gear timepieces with a total of 164 parts, many of which are hand-chamfered and decorated. The sapphire glass back cover allows Geneva ripples to be seen on the clock.
Classic double compound dial
The dial is equipped with a 30-minute counter and a small seconds indicator. This gives a classic double composite appearance. Because the dial is made of almost velvety gray, the appearance is soft. The chronograph uses Roman numerals and subtle red numerals to create a classic sports look. Low-key, subtle and desirable. The same is true of the blue central second hand of the chronograph.

Band with Seraphim of Milan family
"Cornes de vache" may be a bit of a hate or love style. For some people it is too demon vol, for others it is just baroque. In any case, there is a series of handcrafted, outdated dark brown calfskin on the lugs. The band is made by Maison Serapian, a traditional Milan leather goods manufacturer. The excellent Italian house was built in 1928. The Serabans have a long-term cooperative relationship with Vacheron, dating back a long time ago.rolex replica This is why the leather watch factory once again made important work for the new Vacheron Constantin Historiques Cornes de vache 1955. The strap is as delicate as the watch.

In short, with its unique "horn", exquisite internal movement, stainless steel case and exquisite Italian leather, the new Cornes de vache is more popular than ever.
