ulcain is not just about alarm watches, and this latest vintage-inspired launch is here to prove it. Since its launch in January 2023, the Skindiver series has charmed watch enthusiasts worldwide with its retro 60s aesthetic.

Today, Vulcain steps up its game with four new models, each paying homage to the quintessential Nautique heritage of the 60s.

The new 38 mm editions include:

• A vibrant orange dial, complemented by a black ceramic bezel, housed in a steel case. An aged chocolate dial featuring chocolate-coloured Super-LumiNova hour markers, paired with a black ceramic bezel, in a steel case.
• A fir green dial, accented with a black ceramic bezel, set in a steel case.
• A version encased in bronze, showcasing a Black dial and black ceramic bezel.
• A 18K yellow gold version that presents a Blue dial alongside a blue ceramic bezel.

These creations, now integral to the permanent collection, promise to captivate both watch aficionados and diving enthusiasts.

Vulcain’s Skindiver Nautique blends a design carefully inspired by the 60s with modern features, embodying the essence of simplicity. This deliberate simplicity, free of pretense, is what defines its charm and drives its success. Historically, it has been a standout in the compact, recreational diving segment.

The Skindiver encompasses everything vintage diving watch enthusiasts adore. Equipped with the robust ETA 2824 Swiss automatic three-hand movement, the watch offers a timeless aesthetic. Notably, the absence of a date function eliminates the possibility of any ghost position when adjusting the crown, a detail that purists appreciate. Moreover, the watch features a closed case back, a design choice that not only preserves the integrity of the movement but is also welcomed by aficionados.

The Skindiver Nautique impresses with all the attributes of a true diver, including ultra-legible Super-LumiNova indexes and hands, and a unidirectional fluted bezel with a black ceramic insert. Housed in a 38mm steel case, the timepiece is water-resistant up to 200 meters. It is presented on a black leather strap with a carbon motif, matching stitching, and a pin buckle – with eight additional strap options available.
