Introducing: The Vulcain Skindiver Nautique

Following last year's alarming relaunch of the darling Cricket, Vulcain has just announced a brand-new vintage-inspired dive watch for 2023 - the Skindiver Nautique 38mm. Taking direct inspiration from a model that was produced by Vulcain throughout the 1960s, this modern interpretation looks to re-issue the Nautique into what is left of today's nostalgia-driven market with the support of a price tag that barely breaks into the four-figure range.

The Value Proposition: The Doxa Sub 200 Professional
