Vulcain Cricket President Blue keeps the mechanical alarm in formal dress

Vulcain’s Cricket President Blue looks, at first, like a restrained dress watch. Applied markers, polished hands and a blue dial establish the formal character, while the additional controls reveal a less common function: a mechanical alarm. Unlike an electronic alert, its sound comes from a mechanism inside the watch.

The manufacture V10 is a hand-wound calibre with separate barrels, 25 jewels and a stated 52-hour power reserve. Vulcain gives an approximate alarm duration of 20 seconds and a frequency of 18,000 vibrations per hour. The steel case uses domed antireflective sapphire glass and carries a 5 ATM rating. The official page describes this blue configuration as a 25-piece limited edition; that does not guarantee remaining retail availability.
