Besides easy time studying, the self-winding watch features small seconds along with a date display in the 6 o’clock position, an electrical reserve of 48 hrs, and hacking seconds (hacking seconds: the seconds hands stops once the crown is brought out for modifying time). Possibly the best feature may be the altering colours from the dial, with respect to the light.

DIAL AND HANDS

Oh that dial! Nowhere sun-ray dial - the effect of a galvanic process made by machine - provides the see a special touch that distinguishes it from classical classic dress watches. It provides character and uniqueness. On top of that the tones and patterns change for the way the sunshine hits the dial.

They of Ulysse Nardin aimed to help keep the dial as basic and understated as you possibly can. Embossed roman indicators mark the 3rd, ninth, and twelfth hour and embossed bars mark the rest of the hrs. Departing the location of the organization gives extra space round the name and also the anchor. The look is wonderfully balanced. The “U” in Ulysse is aligned with the top 7 o’clock marker, the “N” in Nardin with the top 5 o’clock marker so when you draw an upright line in the dots in the 6 and 12 positions, the road experiences the center of the date window, the sub-dial, the “UN” indication within the sub-dial and also the anchor. This plays a role in the balanced look. The in-laid sub-dial, using its 2 kinds of ribbons, fonts, and date window is itself wonderfully designed too. The sub-dial displays seconds and date. The little round date window reads well and it is shape is suggestive of the maritime heritage.

The rather understated form of the sword-formed hands Body of Ulysse Nardin’s signatures - lead towards the classic appearance of the timepiece. Legibility is outstanding throughout the day and sufficient during night, because of the luminous hands and hour markers.

Situation, CROWN AND LUGS

The situation is really a modern interpretation of classic, especially because of the rather short, curved lugs. The rounded edges from the bezel match well using the slightly rounded situation body. The situation design also gives depth towards the dial. Even though the situation looks shiny, there's no mistaking its quality.

Back and front look completely different. The leading looks delicate as the back reflects the boldness of the ship’s porthole. You could reason that a vintage dress watch also needs to have a more delicately designed situation-back however this designs matches the DNA of the organization better. The situation-back is bound via screws. The United nations emblem inlaid in to the crown provides a nice touch towards the watch.

STRAP AND BUCKLE

The strap consists of quality alligator leather that has been dyed blue featuring blue stitching. The pin buckle is straightforward but functional, having a style in line with those of the form from the situation and lugs.

MOVEMENT

Inside ticks the current in-house calibre United nations-320 that forces the display of your time in hrs, minutes and seconds along with the date. The automated movement includes a hacking mechanism, 48 hrs of power reserve along with a plastic hairspring and anchor escapement, facilitating easy maintenance and magnetic protection.

The style of the movement deserves some attention too. Clearly one notices the transversal bridge for that balance wheel, the wave-formed engraved rotor with small waves along with the blued screws, the Geneva striped finishing and polished beveled angles from the bridges. But there's more. For instance, several areas of the rotor fixation “circle” and also the United nations emblem “circle” are aligned with one another as is among the screws using the anchor eye. The total amount wheel is one of the same size then when you possess the timepiece with balance wheel in the 12 o’clock position there's a pleasant type of 3 circles. Please this in your own home, away from work otherwise your co-workers might think you're weird.

Finally, the performance from the winding mechanism ought to be pointed out. Simply slightly moving the timepiece causes it to be run, proof of the minimal friction and production excellence. A nightmare for photographers however a treat for watch proprietors who spend many of their time behind desks. It may seem this really is typical for top-finish movements but it's not.
