Ulysse Nardin Xplores Daring Materials To Adorn Its Four New Executive Free Wheel Limited ...

Today, Ulysse Nardin gives a new shine to its Executive Free Wheel by using four daring materials on its dial and barrel cover, making it a visual feast for the watch connoisseur With a dial made from osmium - which is not only the world's heaviest metal but also the rarest and densest, most stable element - this version of the Free Wheel has a white gold case which frames the diamond-like osmium crystals Also used in the Ulysse Nardin men's Blue Aventurine Genghis Khan 789-80, this mineral's aventurescence provides a shimmering effect often seen by sailors contemplating the ocean's surface in the dark of night.

Made using a rarefied, 17th-century technique once practiced by nuns in convents, straw marquetry has been revived with new glory and used by Ulysse Nardin to adorn the face of this Executive Free Wheel model The elements of the Executive Free Wheel literally make time fly The entire UN-176 movement was developed at the Ulysse Nardin Manufacture in Switzerland.

Designed for the true watch connoisseur, the Executive Free Wheel - in all of its incarnations - is a perfect coherence of engineering and aesthetics. . Source
