Wearable Art: Ulysse Nardin Classico Lady

Ulysse Nardin presents the world two breathtaking watches for women recently: The Ulysse Nardin Classico Lady.



Compared with so many watches in dull brown, black or white, these two watches with bright blue /purple case and leather strap will surely wow the people at first glance and attract their attention. And the animated bird depicted with diamonds are so lovely and exclusive that hardly any girl can resist to have such a watch.



The value of this watch lies in that not only it is presented in 18-karat gold with studded diamonds, but also it is crafted with a lost art that has been restored: the enameling. Enamel is a glass comprising silica, red lead and potash. In the glazing process, stabilizing elements [lime or magnesium] are combined with the main ingredient silica, to which fluxes [potassium, sodium] are added to lower the melting point. Different colors are created by using different metallic oxides.

Enameling is a watchmaking technique that has been well-used in haute horlogerie but highly restricted by a handful of skilled artisan. The process of enameling can be traced back to Gallo-Roman times. This refined decorative technique gives the dials a one-of-a-kind color, which is sometimes called the Ulysse Nardin Blue.

These two jeweled watches are truly wearable art glittering with traditional and fashionable sparkle. Just wearing such Ulysse Nardin replica watches would satisfy me already.

Burberry limited edition watch for women is already sold out

Last month, Buberry showcased a limited edition of ladies’ watch at the Prosum Autumn Winter show. The watches could be ordered from Burberry’ website, but now we cannot see the information. They are probably already sold out since only 50 units available.

It is not too expensive as a limited edition watch. It is said the watch is retailing at 800 USD. In less than 1000 dollars you can get a watch that is limited to 50 units. This is really a great selling point. I bet the watch would be resold at a better price judging from the market reaction.

The watch itself is rather simple. But it expands its luxury and beauty to the gold chain bracelet, making it a rather arresting accessory for ladies. Girls wearing this watch must be beautiful and elegant. I like this watch very much. Hope the replica version of this watch come out soon.

A minute repeater is an aperture that can produce a pleasing chime to alert the watch wearer in every one-minute interval. The delicacy of the timepiece not only lies in the mechanics function itself, but also the accurate adjustment and design that ensures the watch to play the dulcet sound.

The Midnight Minute Repeater can produce 3 kinds of chimes: low pitch for hours, altering low and high pitch for quarter hours, and high pitch for minutes. You can switch on or off the minute repeater function by pressing the push piece positioned at 8 o’clock. So you won’t be disturbed by the sound when you don’t need them.
