VULCAIN ColleCtion HigHligHt Following the success of the company’s Anniversary Heart model, which was recently gifted to President Barack Obama, Vulcain launched an allnew edition of their subtly elegant timepiece in 2010. Unlike its predecessor, the watch is driven by a mechanical self-winding movement, the new Cricket V-28 alarm calibre. A partially skeletonized dial reveals the spectacular finishing and meticulous craftsmanship of this impressive 221-part mechanism. The anthracite-coated oscillating weight is equipped with a ceramic ball-bearing system which allows unidirectional winding. Vulcain’s patented Exactomatic system guarantees regular amplitude and enhanced rating precision, while its twin barrels ensure a 42-hour power reserve and 20-second chime. In addition, it drives the hours, minutes, central seconds and alarm functions. The new Anniversary Heart Automatic features a refined face with four Arabic numerals in place of the previous model’s single numeral, while the openworked hands reflect the timepiece’s airy nature. The 42mm case comes in steel or 18K rose gold, with a fluted caseband and sapphire crystal case back enhanced with the company’s signature “V”. The Louisiana alligator strap is fitted with a gold pin buckle in the 18K rose gold model or a safety folding clasp in the steel version. (From $8,780).

VULCAIN ColleCtion HigHligHt To celebrate the 60th anniversary of the company’s legendary Cricket calibre, Vulcain has created a limited edition model, christened the Aviator GMT “The World.” A detailed depiction of the world map graces its beautifully crafted cloisonné enamel dial, designed to mimic the movement of the waves. Equipped with the Cricket V-13 alarm movement, it makes an ideal travel companion for globetrotters. The stunning timepiece is available in a choice of 18K rose or white gold and is secured by a Louisiana alligator strap with gold pin buckle. Its 42mm case is also rendered in 18K rose or white gold, and is fitted with a double back acting as a resonance chamber. The advanced version of the legendary Cricket calibre is distinguished by its impeccable finishing, including bridges embellished with “Côtes de Genève,” circular-grained or polished plates and blued screws. The Aviator GMT “The World” edition will be produced in a series of just 60, with 30 pieces in the rose gold and 30 in white. Each watch will be individually numbered on both the dial and on the case-back, marking its exclusivity. (From $44,770).
