President's Watch for President's Day
President's Day, also known as Washington's Birthday, is a federal holiday celebrated in the United States. It falls on the third Monday of February each year. The day is intended to honor and commemorate the country's first President, George Washington, who was born on February 22, 1732. As part of commemorating this special day, let us share with you our favourite timepieces that are inspired by Presidents from Vulcain’s watch collection.
1. Vulcain Tonneau Millesime 1928 is built in a special tonneau shaped case with the finest finish befitting of a President. Featuring the Vulcain iconic Cricket Alarm with in-house hand winding movement, the watch is designed with a beautiful blue dial encased in a silver stainless steel case and paired with a brown leather strap. The watch features a special stainless steel double membrane case back that escalates the sounds of the alarm.
2. A President must not only rule with an iron fist, but he also needs to rule with a compassionate heart, a heart of gold. It is no wonder that Vulcain has aptly named it skeleton collection, the Vulcain Golden Heart. The timepiece looks robust and designed to always be a classic on the wrist. The sapphire crystal case back window and the skeletonized dial shows the complexities and beauty of the watch in all its glory. This allows wearers to gaze into the intricate craftsmanship that goes into creating a Vulcain in-house Cricket Alarm movement.
3. A President is always jet setting around the world to meet up with dignitaries to discuss various topics from trade to national security. A good timepiece on a President’s wrist not only complements his or her regal allure, it can also serve as a functional piece such as our dual-time timepiece from Vulcain. Vulcain Aviator Cricket Dual-Time is an ideal timepiece to wear while traveling around the world. It features an inner rotating bezel that helps indicate the second time zone. The watch is built with a 42mm stainless steel case and 'double membrane' stainless steel case back for extra loud alarm. It is water-resistant to 100 metres and features the Vulcain iconic Cricket alarm with the in-house hand winding movement.
President's Day is now seen as a day to celebrate all past U.S. Presidents and their contributions to the nation.
