FOR SALE IS A SUPER RARE LATE 60s VULCAIN  DIVER WITH COLORFUL RAINBOW DIAL IN.

  • CASE: SEXY C-SHAPED CHROMED CASE MEASURING A HEALTHY 42mm ACROSS NOT INCLUDING CROWN. THE 2-TONE COKE BEZEL IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION AND HAS A NICE GRIPPY BI-DIRECTIONAL ACTION TO IT. CASE HAS SOME WABI-SABI ON IT BUT STILL MAINTAINS MUCH OF ITS ORIGINAL BRUSHED FINISHES ON THE TOP.

 

  • DIAL: THIS RAINBOW DIAL IS AS TRIPPY AS THEY COME. CHECK OUT THAT BUSY DISPLAY OF COLORFUL NUMERALS WHICH GIVE A 24 HOUR DISPLAY PLUS 2 RINGS BREAKING UP THE MINUTES/SECONDS INTO ODD/EVEN SEGMENTS. THE WHITE HANDS ALLOW FOR SOME TONED DOWN LEGIBILITY AND THAT YELLOW SWEEPER TIES IT ALL TOGETHER BEAUTIFULLY. 

 

  • MOVEMENT: THIS VULCAIN  RUNS ON 17 JEWEL SWISS MANUAL WINDER. SERVICE HISTORY IS UNKNOWN, BUT THIS ONE HAS BEEN A SOLID RUNNER FOR ME.  

 

  • WATCH IS MOUNTED ON A 22mm RUBBER VINTAGE STYLE TROPIC STRAP(BUT LUGS ARE 21mm) .  THIS IS A SUPER RARE BIRD. WITH THE RECENT REBIRTH OF VULCAIN, IT’S EXCITING TO SEE NEW ENERGY PUMPED INTO THIS FAMOUS VINTAGE BRAND WHICH HAS A TON OF CLASSIC PIECES. THIS IS A VERY RARE MODEL AND AN ABSOLUTE BLAST TO HAVE IN ANY COLLECTION. BORROWING DESIGN LANGUAGE FROM ITS STABLEMATE BROTHER THE NAUTICAL ALARM, THIS IS A MUCH MORE ACCESSIBLE PIECE WITH THE SAME FEELZ. THIS IS A GREAT CASUAL VINTAGE DIVER WITH A MACHO FEEL. GREAT FOR THE MAN OF ADVENTURE.
