Ulysse Nardin Enamel Cloisonné: The Achille.
These Vessels series were great ones!
Best,
Nicolas
Superb
UN really shines when it comes down to marine theme watches. I do miss the acqua line-up.
Beautiful piece of art.
Interesting that the market absolutely loves enamel pieces from Patek, while similar quality works from UN and some others attracts very little attention.
Regarding the movement- yes, it is not special being ETA-based, even if the highest grade one. But is the movement in enamel Pateks that much better? And is it really that important in this kind of art watches? I don't think so.
All in all - I love these enamel UNs and consider them grossly undervalued. Do you agree? If yes - why do you think it is the case? Weakness of the brandname or lack of interest in enamel works overall?

Thanks Nico.
And while on the topic let me post this beautiful and very rare animal. 30 pieces made in 2005.
sweet.
UN does Cloisonné really well. I was glad to get a Tellurium where the Earth dial is done that way. Thanks for the picture, Andreas
