Vulcain Cricket President Silver 39mm Watch 100173A20.BAN248

Founded in Switzerland in 1858, the company first made a name for itself with its Cricket calibre.

It was this very special movement that allowed Vulcain to create the first wristwatch with an audible alarm. This latest addition to the famous Vulcain line of watches incorporates all the precision advances made by generations of watch experts. Sound would become a Vulcain 's hallmark. Not only was it audible, but it was powerful enough to wake its wearer.
