Vulcain Skindiver Chronograph Ice Blue brings cool contrast to a rugged silhouette

The Skindiver Chronograph Ice Blue combines a silver-toned dial with pale blue counters and a dark ceramic bezel. Broad luminous markers reinforce the sporting appearance, while vertically brushed steel gives the case a more utilitarian surface than Vulcain’s polished dress chronographs. A bidirectional rotating bezel provides a second timing reference around the stopwatch display.

The case measures 39.7mm across and 13mm thick, with domed sapphire glass and an exhibition back. Vulcain identifies the automatic movement as an ETA 7753-base C088, running at 4Hz with a stated 42-hour power reserve. Despite the Skindiver name and timing bezel, the published water-resistance rating is 50 metres. Its attraction is the combination of chronograph functionality, compact proportions and the unusually soft colour contrast of the dial.
