Ulysse Nardin Perpetual Manufacture Platinum, 2014 Edition.

It has been a long time we didn't see this watch, unveiled in 2014, much wiser than the former ones, the El Toro, and even before the Perpetual GMT.
Cleaner case and dial, less original hands. But always the same friendly movement which allows you to set the calendar forward AND backward, THROUGH the crown.
It came in other dial variations, in blue and in black.
43 mm case.
Since then, Ulysse Nardin came back to the roots, with the Classic Perpetual, wiser, smaller ( 41 mm ) and more affordable, as a bit below 20, 000 Euros, in steel.
So the Perpetual Manufacture from 2014 seems to be the last of the Mohicans, for the Perpetual Calendars from Ulysse Nardin.
But it is something apart, in terms of friendliness and aesthetics... No moon phase, very pure look.
Best,
Nicolas
