For those of you who read my post about Vulcain in Finland (i.e. prior to the recent relaunch), I have now found the NEW Vulcain that is at the top of my wish list -
This is the Vulcain 50s Presidents’ Watch Heritage Gold & Steel. This is as close as I have seen to that watch that teased, taunted and tormented me back in Helsinki. I have started saving my pennies!

I really love the new 50's President Heritage line. I'm particularly fond of the dark grey, rhodium dialed model. I've also started stuffing change into a piggy bank.
