Ulysse Nardin El Toro

       A pioneering Swiss watch-making brand, associated with a genuine stroke of genius, just as its official website sates, Ulysse Nardin created, through its centenary existence a well-established reputation of bold innovator and trendsetter of the entire luxury watch-making industry.

       Highly appreciated by the watch-connoisseurs worldwide, Ulysse Nardin always strived to reinvent its horological creations, to implement revolutionary technologies, and to push, every time around, the known limits of engineering and design. In more than 160 years of tradition, the brand never ceased to show that, in the elitist world of watch-making, challenges are nothing but intriguing opportunities of redefining the limits of mechanical sophistication and design.

       Fateful to a life-guiding philosophy, and to its well-grounded principles, cultivated throughout more than one century, Ulysse Nardin never ceased to surprise its enthusiast customers with superb new wristwatches, characterized by supreme elegance and unmatched mechanical sophistication, just like the new horological creation, revealed at Baselworld 2010, the remarkable Ulysse Nardin El Toro watch.

       A sporty sophisticated timepiece, the eyes-catching Ulysse Nardin El Toro watch features the brand’s iconic moonstruck case, measuring 43 mm in diameter, available either in platinum of 18-karat red gold, and integrates a high-tech bezel and chronograph push pieces. The watch is shielded by two sapphire crystals, treated anti-glare, and it can withstand down to 100-meters beneath the sea’s surface.

       Especially designed for a daring world-traveler, the timepiece incorporates a perpetual calendar horological complication and it accurately ensures a fast-action time-zone system, but at the same time, provides a permanent display of the home time zone. The timepiece furthermore, features a stylish black dial with oversized skeleton hands, and indicates central hours, minutes and seconds as well as a perpetual calendar complication with oversized date, month and year a second time zone.

       At the heart of the remarkable Ulysse Nardin El Toro watch beats a high precision, self-winding mechanical movement, the COSC-chronometer certified, UN-32 caliber, which incorporates 34 jewels and confers a power reserve of 45-hours.

       Created for a venturous modern man, the exquisite Ulysse Nardin El Toro watch comes matched with a stylish black alligator leather strap or a sportier black rubber strap, and it will be available for an approximate price tag around $53,000.00.
