The sky is never grey with the Ulysse Nardin Vintage Chronograph from 1942.
I love this watch! Best, Nicolas ...
Looks really nice but.
Hi Nicolas, As I said it looks really nice but a bit hard to see what are most probably the beautiful details of the dial any chance we can get some close up shots of the dial? Pretty please? Marc
I knew it would be worth it.
Hi Nicolas, Many thanks as it was definitely worth seeing such a subtle and yet lovely and simple but elegant dial wear it health and many thanks for the picture. Marc
Comparing this to UN's current collection, I feel that 80 years of evolution has destroyed some of their DNA.
JLC has done a better job in this regard, I think, while still experimenting.
For the good or for the bad? I feel some of their mad creations from the late 90's to the late 00's were pretty remarkable ( Freak, Sonata, Cal 160, Genghis Khan, Royal Blue Tourbillon, Astronomical Watches, Perp Calendar )... )
And we could add many more... The Lucas, Humair, Oeschin and Schnyder's years were really something. In that sense, I don't think it is for the Bad...
For me, the remarkable elements of recent UN are more technical than aesthetic, and I wish they would incorporate more of the stylistic DNA of the past.
JLC retains more of their stylistic heritage even when pushing the technical aspects, in my view.
