18K yellow gold Vulcain Centenary watch, circa 1960, was made to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the Vulcain Watch Company, founded in 1858 and celebrated for their introduction of the world's first mechanical alarm wristwatch, the famous Cricket, in 1947. This 18K gold 33mm watch was originally designed as a man's watch, but the scale is perfect for women. It is automatic, with a sloped bezel, solid gold case, two-tone matte satin silver dial with outer gold hour track, date window at 3 o'clock and luminous gold baton hands. The 17J automatic movement is warrantied by Aaron Faber for 12 months, this is a terrific value for an 18K gold fine dress watch.
