Ulysse Nardin presents a new ladies' watch, displaying a tiger's head with gemstones on the dial, the Caprice Tiger:
Ulysse
Nardin Caprice Tiger in White Gold.
A
woman, like the tiger, possesses a mysterious poetry of strength, power
and
sensuality, emitting a presence that is both commanding and
curious. Ulysse Nardin
feeds her fantasies with the Caprice Tiger: a
jewel of a timepiece worthy of a fierce fight.
The Caprice Tiger in
18-karat white gold transfixes those who cross its path. With eyes made
of
emeralds and a form glistening with diamonds, the tiger, although
dreamlike, appears alive, as
if it’s moving stealthily through the
grasses. It is a creature of wonder, as enchanting and
mystifying as
the woman whose wrist it adorns. A piece of jewelry that stands
confidently in its
own splendor, the Caprice Tiger illustrates the
convergence of high horology and breathtaking
aesthetic.
Further
embellishing its dial – emanating with strength and femininity – are
fiery rubies
marking the hour. And, with a simple self-winding
movement and power reserve of 42 hours, it
is the perfect timepiece
for the woman who prefers being the center of attention and never
slowing
in stride.
Peek
behind the scenes at the inner workings of this mechanical marvel and
become
captivated with its diamond-set rotor in 22-karat gold –
through its clear sapphire-crystal case
back. Holding all of its
precise and precious elements securely in place is its 18-karat white
gold
case, sapphire-crystal cover and brilliant bezel sparkling in
diamonds, as well. And, its
cabochon dons even more diamonds,
enhancing the timepiece’s character as a prized jewel.
Like a ribbon
is the finishing facet of a carefully thought-out gift, the Caprice
Tiger’s assortment
of satin and galushat straps and white-gold
bracelet from which to choose engulf a woman in
ultimate luxury,
while safely harnessing the striking timepiece’s steady hand to her –
keeping
her on time, day after dynamic day.
The new Caprice
Tiger timepiece is presented as a limited-edition collection of 28
pieces.
