The Vulcain Monopusher 39mm, A Cool Nineteen Fifties Reissue

Vulcain is a recognized participant on the planet of watches, and its Cricket collection holds a particular place within the model’s historical past, incomes titles resembling “The Watch of Presidents” and the “World’s Greatest Look ahead to Busy Folks.” Whereas these designations might have originated within the Nineteen Fifties, they continue to be correct even immediately. Nevertheless, for the die-hard Vulcain fans, a various array of fashions deserve recognition. In sync with the present pattern favouring vintage-inspired aesthetics in watchmaking, Vulcain, which has already re-issued considered one of its previous chronographs not too long ago, now brings again yet one more retro-styled watch with the Vulcain Monopusher 39mm.

The brand new Vulcain Monopusher is introduced in a properly completed, classic-looking 39mm stainless-steel step-case with a 13mm thickness. The case and bezel showcase a mirror-polished floor, whereas the lugs sport a sublime brushed end. The fluted crown sits at 3 o’clock; at 2 o’clock, a single pusher manages all chronograph features – begin, cease, and reset. The screw-in strong caseback options the Vulcain brand. Topped with double-domed sapphire glass that includes AR coating, the case ensures a water resistance of 50m.

Vulcain introduces three distinct variations of the Monopusher, distinguished by their dial colors: a black variant with black counters and Khaki print, one other with black and white counters and white print, and a salmon dial with black print; the latter two are restricted editions of fifty items every. Lumed Arabic hour indices in Ivory or Khaki align with a minute monitor, making a harmonious visible enchantment. The symmetrical format consists of two barely recessed subdials – a 30-minute chronograph register at 3 o’clock and a small seconds show reverse. 

According to the classic inspiration, a pulsometer scale subsequent to the hour monitor allows the wearer to gauge coronary heart charges between 40 and 200 beats per minute. The leaf-style hour and minute fingers in silver (for black and white dials) or rose-coloured (for salmon and all-black variations) guarantee easy readability. The small fingers on the sub-dials echo this plating, enhancing the general cohesion of the show.
