Vulcain Cricket Alarm S2311A
Created in 1947, the Vulcain Cricket is one of the most famous alarm watches in the world. This model features a gold plated case in good vintage condition with even gold coloring throughout the case and no signs of discoloration. The hands appear original, with mild flaking on the minute hand, but hour hand retains full lume. The dial appears to be in original condition with “Waterproof” printing at 6 o’clock and applied gold toned Vulcain at 12 o’clock.
The movement underwent a complete service in July of 2026 and is running strong with alarm function in proper working order. Setting the alarm is very simple, the watch has to be wound forward for timekeeping and backward for alarm functions. Pressing the top pusher release the crown and engage the alarm setting. By rotating the crown forward, the alarm hand will advance counter clockwise until the desired hour is reached. Once set, push the crown back in and your alarm is set.
Watch comes with no box or papers and is on a new, unworn saddle tan cowhide leather strap
