Ulysse Nardin has created some of the most gorgeous ladies timepieces in the last couple of years. One of them is definitely the Caprice Butterfly which is presented in brilliant blue color and encrusted with over 350 sparkling diamonds. The latest ladies timepiece from Ulysse Nardin – Caprice Butterfly (the referent number 130-91FC/BFY) is housed in a rectangular case crafted from 18-karats white gold. Its feminine case is encrusted with 355 diamonds weighing approximately 3.8 carats. Its crown is also crafted from white gold and set with pearls. The case of this adorable timepiece measures 34mm x 35.4mm and it is shielded with anti-reflective sapphire crystals. The case construction provides decent water resistance of 30 meters (circa 100 feet).
Perfectly Suited for Playfully Glamorous Women
Underneath the front sapphire crystal glass, there is a beautiful dial which is decorated with a champlevé butterfly. The Swiss watchmaker put skeletonized hour and minute hands on this model to provide a clear view on butterfly produced in Enamel Champlevé that further reveals the artistic mastery of Ulysse Nardin. This unique technique involves making cavities in a thick metal surface, filled with moist powdered enamel and then fired. Sanding carefully by hand, excess enamel is removed, thus allowing the enamel’s true and shine color to shine through. These eye-catching, glistening hues are accented by strong metal borders, heightening the meticulous detail of this art form. Ulysse Nardin Caprice Butterfly Ladies Watch is powered with the in-house manufactured caliber UN-13 self winding movement with no less than 42 hours of power reserve when fully wound. A special treat for all watch aficionados is a see-through sapphire crystal case back fixed with screws where you can enjoy the inner beauty of the watch. For the best feel on the ladies wrist, Ulysse Nardin chose to attach this exceptional timepiece to a brilliant blue leather strap with an 18-karats white gold folding buckle or an 18-karats white gold deployant clasp.
The new Ulysse Nardin’s watch is a true work of art and simply breathtaking. This piece of jewelry might be a perfect timekeeping companion for the beginning of 2013, but you must act quickly, because the watch is produced in ultra limited quantity of 28 pieces, so only 28 luckiest women will have the opportunity to wear it.
