    Vulcain doesn't seem to be discussed much but they have real history with diving innovation. Here is an early one that I've been wearing a lot this summer :) Imo a bargain vs other similar watches I've seen. Anyone else like Vulcain???

    Definitely like the one you just linked. Not too familiar with the brand besides the crickets. What were some of their diving innovations?

    So besides the famous Cricket, they made a serious dive watch with alarm called the Nautical Cricket back in the 60s. This was a first and the watch today commands crazy prices with collectors. I just love the aesthetics and they can still be had so reasonably. Maybe I will buy a few more :) Lots of info on Vulcain diving here:
