Vulcain introduces a new timepiece that pays homage to the brand’s heritage while embracing modern sensibilities. Renowned for its expertise in alarm watches, Vulcain has embarked on a journey to revive its iconic models, including the Cricket and Cricket Nautical dive watch. Now, the brand unveils the Vulcain Chronograph 1970s Green, a classic bi-compax chronograph with a hand-wound movement, offering a timeless appeal in a compact package.
While the Chronograph 1970s may not initially captivate with groundbreaking features, its charm lies in its simplicity and understated elegance. The watch boasts a 38mm diameter case with a classic design and a step profile, exuding a utilitarian yet refined aesthetic. Sleek pump pushers and a double-domed sapphire crystal add a retro flair to the timepiece.
The dial of the Chronograph 1970s Green features a captivating shade of green with a sunray brushed pattern and silver sub-dials, creating a dynamic visual appeal. Faceted and polished applied markers enhance depth and refinement, while a tachymeter scale adds functionality to the design.
Powering the Chronograph 1970s is the Sellita SW510 M BH b-Manual movement, known for its reliability and precision. With a solid 63-hour power reserve, this movement ensures accurate timekeeping for the discerning wearer.
Limited to just 100 pieces, the Vulcain Chronograph 1970s Green combines vintage-inspired design with modern craftsmanship. Priced at $2,650, this exclusive timepiece is a testament to Vulcain’s commitment to quality and heritage.
