About Vulcain
Vulcain, a gem of a family enterprise, has shone since its inception in 1858 with the creation of intricate complication watches. This is the story of two talented watchmakers, the Ditisheim brothers, and a brand named after the Roman god Vulcan, the deity of fire and the forge. Rooted in the Neuchâtel mountains, the cradle of Swiss precision watchmaking, the Manufacture quickly carved its niche by producing minute repeaters, grande and petite sonneries, and perpetual calendars. These horological marvels, celebrated with accolades at prestigious international exhibitions, embody the pinnacle of watchmaking excellence.
Vulcain derives its name from Roman mythology, specifically that of the god of fire and patron of blacksmiths: Vulcan (or Hephaestus, as known to the Greeks). There’s no quenching the fire that fuels the new beginning of this centuries-old brand. On the contrary, it is on the glowing embers of a past filled with riches that tomorrow is forged.
