Upon observing the dial and case construction of this Ulysse Nardin timepiece, one cannot help but appreciate how the seemingly busy dial is harmoniously orchestrated by the remarkable movement design, akin to a work of art. Throughout the history of watchmaking, the alarm function has not received as much attention from watchmakers compared to other complications, as it was deemed less practical. Many watches offering an alarm function only serve as one-off reminders without the need to repeat itself.

However, Ulysse Nardin has elevated this complication to new heights through their innovative and groundbreaking approach. The intricate calibre UN-67 allows for a user-friendly 24-hour setting, surpassing the limitations of the standard 12-hour setting found in most other watches on the market. This countdown system spanning a full 24 hours makes it incredibly convenient to set, presenting a very practical way of managing this feature. Notably, once the alarm is activated by pressing the button on the left crown, it will sound daily without requiring a reset.

While most alarm watches emit a buzzing sound upon activation, this particular timepiece is equipped with a cathedral gong, surpassing the quality of a typical minute repeater commonly found in the market. The cathedral gong encircles the movement twice, producing a rich and crisp sound, showcasing the ingenious craftsmanship of Ulysse Nardin. Encased in 18K white gold, this watch also incorporates a dual time function and a large date display, making it an unconventional yet highly practical masterpiece.

Please not that the proceeds of the sale of the present watch will be given by the Consignor to various charities.
