Me too. And when they pop up for sale, the asking price is so reasonable.
By: MichaelC : February 14th, 2022-13:40
There is a colored gold case with a silver dial as I recall. I'll have to check it and circle back.

My shot in the dark guess would be Metalem, it looks similar to some of their other work. Hopefully someone more knowledgable can confirm.

was Metalem in Le Locle. Very good collaboration for this project and same pleasure with Ulysse 1. The finishing of the dial is just perfect. ...

I think around months? But purchased about 5 ago
By: MichaelC : February 14th, 2022-13:44
It went straight to Ulysse Nardin in Boca for a standard movement overhaul before I took possession of it. It was nice to receive it in perfect order, but it sure extended the anticipation to have it all paid for and never on my wrist until after!

I have discovered the density you refer to is a very special feeling on the wrist.
By: MichaelC : February 14th, 2022-13:45
One I had not known previously. A great discovery I wish to make again. (38mm Dato perhaps?? That would be a killer!)

I need to dig out my old catalogs, was it only a pink gold case + silver dial as the option?
By: MichaelC : February 14th, 2022-13:48
Preference for the platinum model I have, but the other is nice too!

Yes, that sounds familiar to me. I tried to check in my catalogs, but the older I have is from 2004. This watch is older than that.

Thanks. I watched the last handful of years for it.

It came from the original selling dealer who I know well, and from the original owner. Solid pedigree.

That is well stated. The designs are often polarizing from UN.
By: MichaelC : February 14th, 2022-13:53
In this case, the appeal goes out to all watch enthusiasts, IMO.
