1960s VULCAIN ITALY DIAL WITH HANDMADE LEATHER WATCH ROLL
A rare and evocative Vulcain from the 1960s, distinguished by its Italy map dial — a poetic detail that immediately sets this watch apart.
This is a piece from a time when Swiss watchmaking was not just about precision, but storytelling. The dial features a hand-drawn map of Italy, framed by minimalist hour markers and warm gold hands, giving the watch a quiet, almost academic elegance. It feels personal, cultured, and unmistakably European.
The manual-wind Swiss movement reflects the honest mechanics of the era: simple, reliable, and meant to be engaged with daily. Turning the crown becomes part of the ritual — a reminder that time is something you participate in, not just observe.
The gold-plated case shows natural vintage wear consistent with its age, while the stainless steel caseback is signed Vulcain, confirming its Swiss origin. The crystal bears light marks that add character without distracting from the dial’s charm.
To complete the experience, this watch comes paired with our handmade Mess Of Blues full-grain leather watch roll(a $99 value), crafted with an acqua exterior and a soft velvety teal interior — designed to protect and present vintage timepieces with the respect they deserve.
This is not a watch for everyone.
It’s for someone who appreciates history, restraint, and objects that tell a deeper story.
