Vulcain Chronographe 1970: The Re Edition.
Freshly unveiled:
38 mm steel case, 12, 40 mm high. I believe it is a Sellitas movement, manual winding, offering a power reserve of 63 hours and beating at 28, 800 alternances per hour.
The salmon is the only one limited to 50 pieces.
The good news? You can have a very nice looking watch, with a manual winding movement, for a fair price: 2500 Euros.
Best,
Nicolas

They look perfect though a bit thick for a manual wound movement, I don't understand though the "23 Jewels" under the brand and even more strange the "Incabloc (R)" on the bottom half of the dial... Completely useless and non-sense to me.
It is a shame, because otherwise they are straight to the point (decent price, decent size, etc.)
Re Edition
It was common in the old days that inca block sometimes wrote on a dial. Re edition. The R, Vulcain registered or bought the rights, or have commitment with a party who owns the rights.
Not bad but...
The lebois heritage is better value. The fratello nivada special also better value (no salmon though).
Help me remember
Is Vulcain be at Watch and Wonders 2023? Interesting the use of a Sellita movement. Most movements go a 42 hours, 63 hours means that Sellita have a new family member. Globally and the use of Sellita movements, easy maintenance, better part supplies, cost...
I love these. Great size, classic chronograph design and no date.
The panda and the blue dial are the most appealing to me. Vulcan is making some very nostalgic watches, including the alarm watches they were known for. Well done!
Good looking pieces.
And as much as I normally love the Salmon option, on this watch, I think I prefer the others. Good news for those that want one.
Perhaps. That seems to fit the design very well.
Maybe seeing the salmon in the flesh would change my opinion.
Lovely re-edition, my friend!
love the salmon & silver panda but hate the limitation of the salmon dial. tfs, cheers!
