Quick look at the re-issue of the Vulcain Cricket Nautical model manufactured in 1961. Not an entirely new timepiece, but one that’s been meant to be blogged about for some time.
It’s driven by a Vulcain-manufactured alarm, hand-winding mechanical movement with two barrel springs. Functions include hours, minutes, seconds and alarm. An inner turning dial, driven by a crown at 4 o’clock, giving the indications of decompression tables. The triple case-back acts as a resonance chamber and ensuring the water-resistance down to 300 meters / 990 feet.
Lastly, this wrister can be supplied in a set including one black rubber strap, one charcoal grey red stitches alligator strap, one steel bracelet and tools.

Wow, you’ve done your research! Thanks for the comment…
Yeah, love it! But where can I buy one?
The US distributor is MKWS, LLC and they can contacted at +1 914 347 4200. Apparently, Tourneau carries the line in some stores but check with the distributor. Good luck!
