LIKE NEW VULCAIN 150th ANNIVERSARY HEART LIMITED 150 PIECES

  • 0 Units in Stock


In tribute to the 150th anniversary of its rich and fascinating history, the Vulcain Anniversary Heart model reveals the full measure of Haute Horlogerie expertise accumulated over the decades by the Manufacture in Le Locle. It also provides a glimpse of the legendary movement inextricably bound up with Vulcain’s reputation: a new interpretation of the Cricket alarm calibre.

What finer homage could one render to the history of Vulcain and its famous alarm calibre than to discreetly unveil its subtle mechanism? Through its partially openworked dial, the limited-edition Anniversary Heart model reveals Vulcain Cricket V-18, an advanced version of the legendary movement. This hand-wound alarm calibre is distinguished by its charcoal grey treatment and superb finishes, both signature characteristics of Haute Horlogerie at its most refined. Equipped with the Exactomatic system ensuring regular amplitude and enhanced rating precision, the Cricket Calibre V-18 is composed of 157 parts. Its twin barrels ensure a 42-hour power reserve and a 15 to 20-second alarm. Alongside the latter function, the movement drives central hour, minute and seconds hands.

Featuring bevelled hour-markers and surrounded by a dial ring, the partially openworked dial offers tantalizing views of the gear trains and the meticulous finishing of the charcoal grey movement. Available in steel, the 42 mm-diameter case with its fluted motif along the middle is fitted with a sapphire crystal and case-back, the latter revealing the stylised “V” for Vulcain in steel. It is guaranteed water-resistant to a depth of 50 metres.

The Vulcain Anniversary Heart model comes in limited series of 150 pieces.
