Description

The generously sized 44 mm new case available in black titanium and steel or in titanium and 18-carat rose gold is water-resistant to 100 metres, enabling the wearer to use the alarm function even under water, a milieu where it remains perfectly audible. Accentuating the energetic nature of this timepiece, the distinctive dial with its central motif and oversized numerals is topped by a cambered sapphire crystal. In the same sporting spirit, the Vulcain Cricket GMT X-TREME features a new steel or rose gold notched bezel matching the new design of the crowns and pushpiece. The sapphire crystal case-back graced with the stylised V for Vulcain reveals the charcoal grey finish of the new Cricket Calibre V-16. Equipped with two barrels ensuring a 42-hour power reserve and an alarm lasting around 20 seconds, this mechanical hand-wound movement is also fitted with the Vulcain Exactomatic system guaranteeing regular amplitude and enhanced rating precision. Comprising 191 parts, the Cricket Calibre V-16 drives central hour, minute and seconds hands, as well as an alarm function, window-type date display and 24-hour world-time indication adjustable using the screw-locked crown at 4 oclock. Available on a vulcanised rubber or water-protected leather strap, the new Vulcain Cricket GMT X-TREME in titanium and 18-carat rose gold features a black/gold and a silver-coloured dial. The black titanium and steel version comes with either a predominantly black and silver- coloured dial, or a predominantly silver-coloured and black variation.
