I was gifted this watch which belonged to my grandfather, and I would like to determine its year of production. Despite my efforts, I couldn't find any photos of it online. Do you think it's a rare model? Any information would be greatly appreciated :)

Looks like the Tradition

Looks like that could be one of the 1950/60 14k gold ones. Lovely watch!

That's the earlier configuration for a Cricket and I agree 50's maybe early 60's. Oldest I know of is 1948, since I worked on that one.

Oh, I should say that it is not the earliest configuration, to clarify not 40's or likely early 50's but later.

Vulcan cricket!! Love this watch. It’s super collectible and is a really unique price worn by a few presidents! It’s got an alarm function and that shit will wake you up for sure! Enjoy
