Vacheron Constantin 5000H Hodinkee Historiques Cornes de Vache 1955 SS Gray Dial LIMITED

The Vacheron Constantin Historiques Cornes de Vache 1955 Limited Edition for HODINKEE is a particularly scarce version of one of Vacheron Constantin's strongest modern chronographs. Released in 2017 as reference 5000H/000A-B325, it was made in a run of 36 pieces. The stainless steel case gives the Cornes de Vache a different presence from the more familiar precious metal examples, while keeping the distinctive flared lugs that define the model and recall the original 1955 reference 6087. This edition also stands apart for its anthracite dial, which pairs applied markers with a pulsation scale and gives the watch a more specialized vintage feel than the standard versions. Inside is the hand-wound caliber 1142, a traditional column-wheel chronograph movement known for its balanced layout and fine finishing. It suits the watch well, both mechanically and aesthetically, and reinforces the model's close connection to Vacheron Constantin's postwar chronograph design. Within the Historiques collection, this reference is notable for how clearly it brings together period-correct design, strong movement finishing, and real rarity. Made specifically for HODINKEE, it also holds a distinct place in the early wave of collector-focused collaborations between major watch brands and enthusiast platforms. For buyers looking for a thoughtfully executed chronograph from a top-tier maison, the Cornes de Vache for HODINKEE offers a rare combination of design purity, mechanical substance, and collectibility.
