In celebration of 170 years of fine mechanical watchmaking, Swiss watchmaker Ulysse Nardin launched a limited edition of its Classico Collection timepiece with a precious Grand Feu Enamel dial.

The process of Grand Feu enamel is a traditional decorative technique which began to be used in the 17th century. It takes its name from the extreme heat - between 760 and 900° C - required to fuse the enamel powder in the kiln.
The classic look of this dial - with hour, minutes, small seconds and circular date aperture - is further enhanced by the roman numeral display in a blue colour typical of the brand.
The Classico Manufacture is driven by an in-house movement entirely conceived and developed by the Swiss manufacture, the UN-320 Calibre, with a silicium hairspring and anchor escapement. Visible through the transparent case back with sapphire crystal, the movement beats at 21,800 vph and offers 48 hours of power reserve.
Crafted in a limited edition of 170 - one for every year of Ulysse Nardin's history - the Classico Manufacture enables wearers to easily set the date backwards and forwards by using the stop seconds feature by simply pulling the crown.
Completed by a blue alligator strap, the Ulysse Nardin Classico Manufacture 170th Anniversary Limited Edition (ref. 3203-136LE-2/E0) has a price of Euro 8,500. ulysse-nardin.com
