Since I am traveling a lot on an international basis and also need to work with people across time zones - not wanting to call at the wrong hour - I saw Vulcain as a brand with GMT city watches. Does anyone have any experience with this brand? Seem to have a limited dealer network here in Europe (none in Sweden) so a dealer visit is not easy. Pricing is decent and they recently were featured in a Watch Time GMT watch review. Any comments welcome! |

Apart from the fact that they are the "Watch of the President" (and have been for the past 60 years or so) and that they run slow-beating (18,000 vph) in-house movements and like their mechanical alarms, then I don't know all that much about them I'm afraid. They have a good reputation though, and prices are not too bad IMO when you consider they are quite unique, especially with the mechanical alarm. Personally I think the "X-treme" automatic models are the ones to go for. |

I like Vulcain a lot. I'm a personal fan of the various Heart watches - the open work style appeals. As Driver hinted at the prices are 'OK', if not spectacular. |
