Ulysse Nardin Torpedo Tourbillon 175, from 2021.
Shame on me, I didn't see this one coming. I saw it in a window display and had to make some search to find what it was...
The Torpedo Tourbillon was issued in a limited edition of 175 pieces to celebrate the 175 anniversary of the brand.
It is a 42 mm case ( good ), in rose gold ( well, it wold have been good to have the choice between rose gold and a white metal ) water resistant to 50 meters ( bad, as the Marine Tourbillon issued in 2017 is water resistant to 100 meters ), with conventional lugs ( good, as the tubular lugs of the Marine Tourbillon bugged me a bit ) and a great black enamel dial ( excellent ).
Here it is:
In white metal, with a black enamel dial and arabic numbers, it would have been irresistible...
Best,
Nicolas

White enamel
Always a complain is easy. Prefer white, also bleu is out of order …… for me for me. The standard lugs are a huuuuuuge step fore wards cause i bugged by special systems that needs special tools, certified people to get a new strap or strap change if desir...
