42 mm super compressor case, decompression scale, alarm.

The only issue? Finding an all correct one. Most of them have changed crowns and hands. 

A true challenge to find one. 

Best,

Rare

Good to get attention for Vulcain. I have one Vulcain alarm watch on my wishlist, to give my watch collection a push. Reason, i own no hand wound, and i want a hand wound watch.

Even the re edition is great. Yes, manual winding movement. With a twist. You can only set the time in one direction... [nt]

Always

Set the time one direction. I am afraid to damage the movement when setting a watch to turn anti clockwise when the hands go anti clockwise. I operate the union crown anti clockwise when setting time on my Longines, then the hands go clockwise. Also when i adjust the date, i do it at 12 afternoon.

Correct! You need to be used to it, it takes a bit of time. [nt]

Very nice watch, love it.

I've had the re-issue a few times on my wrist, and I think that's a very nice looking watch. Vte

And a bargain, the re edition. Very well made, with an interesting movement. The same than the vintage! [nt]
