Gold & Black Skindiver Watch 661170A07

The Watch

With a rich heritage to draw from, Vulcain keeps its sights set firmly on the future. Founded in 1858, the brand crafts high-quality mechanical timepieces with exceptional in-house innovations. To deliver models that are both high-performing and fully equipped, Vulcain revisits an iconic dive watch from the 1960s under the name Skin Diver 661170A07. It's a reliable, solid model built around a case crafted in robust stainless steel - well-proportioned and seriously constructed. It is elevated by a gold-yellow PVD coating and features alternating polished and brushed finishes for a sophisticated look. Its vintage appeal shines through a round shape and a 38 mm diameter with a 12.20 mm thickness. A domed sapphire crystal reinforces the case and shields the dial from scratches. The notched, rotating bezel adds a contemporary, sporty edge. It is fitted with a black ceramic insert highlighted by a minute track and a triangular marker at 12 o'clock. Perfectly balanced, the case pairs with a notched gold-toned crown for easy adjustment of the hour and minute hands for precise timekeeping. The whole is completed by a screw-down, engraved caseback that promises 20 ATM water resistance.

The Dial

The clean, elegant dial delivers a unique watchmaking experience. It features a matte black color and a minute track running along the outer edge with fine, elongated graduations. For the indexes, you'll find an inverted triangle at 12 o'clock, batons at 3, 6, and 9 o'clock, and dots for the remaining hours. The gold baton hands for hours and minutes are filled with white Luminova, as are all the indexes, ensuring clear legibility in low-light conditions. Joined by a slender gold seconds hand, they all contribute to the dial's beauty. To complete the picture, the brand places its signature below 12 o'clock and notes "Incabloc" and "25 Jewels" at 6 o'clock, along with the discreet inscription "L. Swiss Made. L".

The Movement

This model is equipped with a Swiss automatic movement that drives the central functions with precision. It is the caliber ETA2824-2 H3 (V66), featuring 25 jewels, a frequency of 28,800 vph, and a power reserve of 38 hours. Robust, reliable, and dependable, it offers a three-hand analog display.

The Strap

This watch is available with two strap options selectable from the dropdown menu. Both feature a quick-change system for effortless swapping in seconds. They are also fitted with a pin buckle and measure 20 mm at the lug end, tapering to 16 mm at the buckle.

The first strap is crafted in black rubber of the Tropic type. Its perforated design ensures a comfortable, flexible fit around the wrist while adding a sportier look.

The second strap is crafted in bovine leather with a carbon-effect embossing that lends it a polished elegance suited to any style. Comfortable to wear, it ensures a perfect fit.

Water Resistance

With a water resistance of 200 meters - or 20 ATM in proper watchmaker's language - this watch is built for shallow dives. That means it handles the shower, the bath, and the sea or pool for casual snorkeling and freediving with ease. For professional scuba diving, our Ocarat watch experts have handpicked a dedicated selection of 30 ATM models, available in our catalog with a quick search on the site. One last reminder before we let you go: don't touch the pushers or crown during any water activity.
