Ulysse Nardin Perpetual Calendars El Toro 326-00-3 Replica Watch

Ulysse Nardin Blast Free Wheel inlay is the ultimate

gratitude to silicon

Ulysse Nardin hasn’t always received the reputation it should get as a watch manufacturer. We bet most people watching this particular video don’t know that Ulysse Nardin is an independently possessed, vertically integrated manufacturer, among the very few that can manufacture the watches entirely in-house. In the last 22 years, the brand has turned into a haven for innovative as well as high-tech design, although it additionally masters more classically designed timepieces. Their 2001 Fanatic was well ahead of the competition and was the first watch to make use of silicon in its movement : something no other watch experienced yet got around in order to doing. Today, Ulysse Nardin pays homage to it is pioneering silicon craftsmanship through launching the new Blast Totally free Wheel Marquetry flying tourbillon, which uses silicon with the movement but also within the dial.



Such as other Blast models, the actual 30-meter water-resistant 18k white gold or platinum case stands out for its faceted lugs that richly alternative hairline-brushed and mirror-polished surface finishes. Designed using a sophisticated laser beam method, these futuristic lugs once again demonstrate Ulysse Nardin’s mastery of modern machining, increasing a diligent approach to Luxurious Horlogerie standards. Looking at the perimeters of the case, you'll notice that the particular tops of the lugs downward slope down toward the back of the watch case, leaving the sides of the case uncovered. Thanks to the ultra-glass package sapphire crystal, you can appreciate the dial from almost all angles as well as the movement elements visible on the side of the switch.



While the situation is eye-catching, it's the call that ultimately catches your own eye first. Now, this specific isn’t the first time Ulysse Nardin has used silicon marquetry knobs - they’ve appeared on the few limited-edition watches through the Freak X before ~ but this is their very first appearance in the Blast selection. Consisting of 103 silicon wafers, Ulysse Nardin’s craftsmen meticulously fit each wafer on to the dial - a job that required extremely dexterous puzzle pieces to complete. 1 wrong move and the delicate silicon wafer can develop imperfections or crack. Each marquetry piece alternates between ultra-precision matte and mirror-polished areas. Interestingly, the matte pieces are 0. 3mm thicker, while the polished strips tend to be 0. 35mm thick, featuring their fragility during the establishing process. These precisely reduce pieces and their subtly different thicknesses and finishes produce depth and mesmerizing perform of light and shadow.



The in-house UN-176 flying tourbillon movement is really a puzzling and beautiful motion, with the movement parts noticeable from the front and apparently floating on the dial with no visible accessories. So , things these components do? There exists a beautifully decorated flying clip or barrel at 12 o'clock, which could store a full week's reserve of power. There is a decorative winding steering wheel at 2 o'clock along with a power reserve indicator below this. The indication remains stationary, with a rotating band underneath it showing the saved energy. Three bars reveal that the string is completely wound, while one pub warns of insufficient power. The reduction gear is situated at the 8 o'clock place, below the power reserve differential and also intermediate wheel. Finally, typically the flying tourbillon at six o’clock is equipped with the Ulysse Nardin anchor constant escapement, composed of 45 parts. The complex design challenges the idea of traditional escapements by providing completely even impulses on the stability wheel regardless of its reserve of power status. Of course , the balance tyre and hairspring are made of si, which is highly antimagnetic.



While there's a good exhibition caseback, it doesn't truly show off the movement -- everything you need to see is around the dial - but what it can show off is a blue si wafer, which again provides a novel way of revealing the movement. This material will pay homage.



This timepiece is also compatible with other Great time Tourbillon straps, but can be obtained with two integrated band. One is a blue water-repellant rubber strap with a purple velvet effect and the other is actually a blue alligator leather band, each secured to the hand via an included 18 carat white gold depolyant clasp.



Needless to say, this Ulysse Nardin Blast Free Steering wheel Marquetry watch is definitely a versatile choice in my opinion. Its style is at once highly specialized, stunning and artistic, highlighting how Ulysse Nardin’s distinctive mastery of watchmaking will be able to produce watches unlike everything else in the industry. No other watch provides silicon such a platform when it comes to functionality and visual appearance. It has an irrefutable wow factor which will leave onlookers curious along with wanting to know more.
