Ulysse Nardin Diver Perpetual Limited Edition

un_ap_150

Ulysse Nardin’s Diver Perpetual Limited Edition combines the best of 2 popular worlds: rugged, oversize dive watches and easy-to-set perpetual calendars. UN’s was the first perpetual that allowed all displays to be set forward or backward, including backward across midnight, using only the crown. UN’s large date places the numbers on the same level for a more aesthetically pleasing appearance.

The Diver Perpetual LE combines these useful features in a 45mm titanium case that is polished so highly it can pass for stainless steel. The case is water resistant to 300 meters, and the display back lets you view the movement and its 22K white gold winding rotor. The Diver Perpetual LE is limited to 500 pieces, priced at $26,800.

About the Author: My name is Mike Disher and I am WatchTime's online editor. My interest in watches dates to 1972 and I caught the internet bug in 1997. In 1999 I combined these interests by joining TimeZone.com as its first full-time employee, and later that year I attended my first Basel Fair. I managed TZ from 2000-2007, and in 2008 I joined WatchTime. My other interests include cycling, cars, building custom turntables, painting, and inventing.
