  • Catalogue Essay

    Founded in 1846, Ulysse Nardin created the present GMT +/- Perpetual Calendar to pay homage to its past. The movement is incredibly complicated, displaying the calendar with a digital year indicator above 6 o'clock. In addition, its dual time complication allows the user to adjust the time with olive shaped pushers that can be operated forward or backward. The date is also equipped with the quick-set function that is perfect for the traveller on the go.

    Sized at 38mm diameter, the present variant is the white gold version featuring fluted downturned lugs. Understated and highly practical, the present example is from an early production hinted by its T Swiss Made T designation at 6 o’clock for the use of tritium on luminous material. Aged evenly with a warm yellow hue and preserved in excellent overall condition, the timepiece is powered by the Ulysse Nardin calibre UN32 self-winding movement with an engraved rotor featuring the iconic anchor of the brand.

    Please note that the proceeds of the sale of the present watch will be given by the Consignor to various charities.
