We're big fans of alarm watches — especially the Jaeger-LeCoultre Memovox — but Vulcain was the first to make a working model, and as we all know, vintage collectors love to own the first version of anything. 

It also happened that when Vulcain designed this innovative watch, they nailed it on the first go-around. The Cricket wasn’t some delicate novelty — in fact, it accompanied the first expedition to reach the peak of K2. Future advertisements would read, “The teams of all these expeditions have expressed their satisfaction and admiration of the record performance of their Vulcain Cricket, testifying that their running was as faultless and the ringing of the alarm as distinct on the summit of K2 as in the damp jungles of equatorial Africa.”

Pretty damn cool if you ask us.

This particular example of the Cricket is an exciting partnership with Revolution magazine, bearing a unique nod to Star Trek. Born from the wordplay of the 'Vulcan', Mr. Spock, this cricket bears the signature salute at its center. 

The green theme brings a fresh feel to the model, and the piece has a decidedly classic presence with its 36mm case presence. Plus, it's limited to only 25 pieces!

And who doesn’t love a mechanical alarm? Perhaps only those who have not experienced one! The buzzing vibration positively oozes a certain old-world charm.
