I saw this watch on eBay and bid on it an won. I am a big collector of Vulcain watches and when I saw this when I just had to have it. In several years of collecting I have never seen this watch or one like it for sale. It is an extremely rare model and I absolutely love it. I just put a new crystal in last night. Groovy cool UFO case with diamond tipped accented hour and minute hands and a red lollipop second hand. ImageUploadedByTreasureNet.com1498908032.583791.jpg

That is a cool looking watch.

The funny thing is based on the pictures I was expecting a stainless steel model. When I opened the box i was surprised to see it was gold plated.

Very nice. What year was it made and did you do the crystal replacement yourself?

I am not figured it out yet. It's going to be late 60s early 70s. Yes I did the Crystal replacement myself. A bought a large collection of crystals a few months ago and fortunately found one that fit.

Me too! Apparently it was sold previously for $150 but the person never paid for it so it was relisted. I am so thrilled that they didn't pay! ImageUploadedByTreasureNet.com1499183544.848393.jpg
