Old and little-known brand, with a 50s design, it smells of cigars, rum and old post-war "Chevys". Rather thin, I find it very pleasant on the wrist, its dial is subtle and constantly plays with the light. The steel bracelet will give it a sporty chic style, the leather will give it an elegant and casual style. The packaging is superb!

The vapors of the tropics

For people of my generation Lip was the equivalent of Omega, Tissot, Breitling etc. This Lip Electronic represents an innovation and the pronounced taste of this brand to be precursors in the field of watchmaking. My model has a rather rare dial because the 4 indexes are represented by a lightning bolt. The quality of Lip proves that after more than 60 years this watch still works very well.

A great story…at a low price

This is a purchase that responds to an era that I knew and to the cinema of one of my favorite directors. This elegant, ultra-thin watch is a dress watch with a touch of originality. It allows me to engage in discussion with those who notice it, on its atypical side and on its cinematographic reference. I rather like the classic but sometimes fun offers me an eccentricity that I appreciate. This watch is also very pleasant on the wrist.

Reference to the punk movement

This is a watch that I never get tired of, precise, waterproof to 100 meters, suit or t-shirt, elegant or sporty, the bracelet will give it the identity you want. The dial reflects the light perfectly and you can go from the office to the swimming pool without taking it off. A watch that I rediscover regularly with always the same pleasure

It lives up to its name

I had wanted a Tudor for a few years and Monfils fils went to the antipodes on the day of the presentation of the BB58 GMT…for an enthusiast like me the excuse was too good 😂. Everything works with this watch, thinner than the old one, a perfect diameter for me and a recognized quality.

The world is vast

This watch represents the alpha and the omega, when I wear it it represents my first mechanical watch in 1973 a Longines, its color the first car of my father that he had in 1964 a Triumph Herald, the wooden dragon of the back of the case represents my Chinese sign….60 years ago and the 888 copies remind me that my son was born on December 8….what watch could compete with so many symbols that touch me….

60 years of waiting

The feeling of a sunset on your wrist, a price that allows you not to think too much, a very useful complication and a robustness that relaxes you... I like it when my life is simplified!!! The diameter of 42 is not felt at all and the jubilee bracelet is really very comfortable and of good quality considering the price (389€)

Voyager

The first time I discovered this watch was in 1971, my uncle, a watchmaker at Patek, wore it when he wasn't at work and it was his morning alarm clock. For me, Vulcan was Star Trek and space, what could be more normal for a child who saw the first step on the moon live………..

Spock's Watch

<p dir="ltr"><strong>Vulcain</strong> is a legendary Swiss watch brand, known for its famous "Cricket", the world's first functional mechanical alarm watch. The history of Vulcain is characterized by a constant commitment to innovation, style and quality and which has rebounded in recent years under the leadership of Guillaume Laidet and Remi Chabrat.</p>
<h2 dir="ltr">What is the history of the Vulcain brand?</h2>
<p dir="ltr">Founded in <strong>1858</strong> by the Ditisheim brothers in La Chaux-de-Fonds, Switzerland, Vulcain began as a small company specializing in the production of high-precision pocket watches.

<p dir="ltr">The <strong>Vulcain Cricket</strong>, thanks to its unique alarm function, has earned the nickname <strong>"Presidents' Watch"</strong>. It has been worn by many American presidents, including Harry Truman, Dwight Eisenhower, Richard Nixon and Lyndon Johnson, cementing the brand's international reputation. Starting in the 1950s, Vulcain continued to innovate by producing diving watches and launching the Vulcain Nautical movement, a diving watch equipped with an alarm function and decompression indicator for divers.</p>
<p dir="ltr">Despite a period of turmoil during the 1970s and 1980s, when the Swiss watch industry was shaken by the quartz revolution, Vulcain managed to overcome these challenges and recover. Today, the brand is lauded for its blend of classic design and modern technology, while continuing to produce high-quality mechanical watches.</p>
