Swiss watch producer Vulcain is renowned for creating a practical alarm complication for wristwatches with the Cricket caliber in 1947. With roots reaching back to the mid-nineteenth century, the brand became a preferred watch of explorers and U.S. presidents. Timepieces by Vulcain were enjoyed by presidents Eisenhower, Truman, and Johnson, and, in fact, to this very day continue to be owned by U.S. presidents.

The deeply colored orange dial makes a bold and sporty statement in this Vulcain Skindiver Nautique watch. Versatile in every regard, it can be seen across the room or whilst exploring that watery depths of your favorite ocean.

The unidirectionally rotating bezel in black features Arabic numerals in 10-minute increments as well as a minute track. The screw-down winding crown, solid case back, and 200 m / 20 atm water resistance also play a part in making this a quality dive piece.
 

Clean and minimalist in its design sensibility, beneath the scratch-resistant domed sapphire crystal the dial displays luminous hands and markers as well as a center seconds hand.

As a self-winding automatic timepiece, this watch is driven by the ETA 2824-2 caliber, which is protected by the Incabloc shock-protection system and beats at 28,800 vph, possesses 25 jewels, and delivers a 38-hour power reserve.

Fashion-forward with its black rubber strap and stainless steel tang buckle, the stainless steel case measures a comfortable 38 mm in diameter and 12.2 mm in height.

From its sporty stylings to its quality construction, we believe this Vulcain Skindiver Nautique will make an excellent addition to your collection.
