Vintage Skindiver Spirit: A Rebirth from the 1960sThink “Vulcain” and the first thing that comes to mind is “Cricket”. That would be selling the brand short; Vulcain is a treasure trove of watchmaking sleeping beauties that resonate with a nostalgic vibe. The Skindiver Nautique is all set to make a splash in the vintage-inspired market. Inspired by a Vulcain model launched circa 1960, it is powered by ETA’s 2824 three-hand Swiss automatic caliber with a 38-hour power reserve, the workhorse among the famed movement maker’s range of mechanical calibers.Its resolutely vintage presence makes this diver's watch more than a compelling proposition in the landscape of reissued diving watches from the past. The Skindiver Nautique has all the attributes of an underwater tool watch, as evidenced by the ultra-legible Super-Luminova-enhanced hands and indexes, which come in khaki brown for an elegant contrast by day and enhanced visibility in low-light conditions, and the unidirectional fluted bezel with black ceramic insert and contrasting white markers. Rated to a depth of 200 meters, the watch is ideally proportioned with a 38mm stainless-steel case.Vulcain’s Diver Nautique Sports ModelThe Skindiver Nautique 38mm features a matt grey dial with white transfer-printed minute track and Vulcain signature, khaki brown Super-Luminova-enhanced hands and hour markers. It is paired with a 'quick-change' leather strap featuring a black carbon pattern and matching stitching.Watchaser Official Retailer2 Years International WarrantyWith box and papers Hands: Polished Bronze Case: Bronze case, vertically brushed and polished, with black ceramic inlay bezel Case-back: Polished 316L stainless steel Dial: Matt black with light brown print and white Super-Luminova Diameter: 38 mm Thickness: 12.2 mm Glass: Double domed sapphire with inner anti-reflective coating Water Resistance: 20 ATM Strap Dimensions: 20x16 mm Buckle: Solid bronze CuAL8 Movement: ETA 2824 – Automatic Functions: Analog display: hours, minutes, seconds Frequency: 28,800 vibrations per hour (4 Hz) Power Reserve: 38 hours
