Ulysse Nardin brings a powerful alternative to the women's watches featuring the GMT function with the Classic Lady Dual Time, designed for women who do not compromise on their elegance while traveling.
The GMT feature is in the limited area where traditional complications and the modern world intersect today. This useful complication, which has been accompanying wrist watches for more than half a century, takes its place in terminology as an indispensable feature for watch enthusiasts who travel frequently. Here we are with the Ulysse Nardin Classic Lady Dual Time, which makes the function even more practical for female users.
The model that we have here today, where the travel restrictions are on the agenda again, comes with a 37.5mm diameter and 12mm high case. The case, which might be a tad bigger for a women's watch even in today's conditions, is made of stainless steel. The thick bezel on the front of the all glossy case makes the overall wrist-presence of the watch a little more compact than it is. The case features scratch-resistant sapphire crystals on both sides and stands up to water-pressure of 50 meters.
The design of the case mostly includes thick lines. The bezel is the first component to notice this detail, which is also evident in the lugs, winding crown and, the pushers that operate the dual time feature. Let us add that this detail, with the help of the integrated pusher-enabled crown and the pushers, draws a manicure-friendly profile for the use of the function, which gets full marks from women😀
The model's dial offers a beautiful tone that alternates between purple and blue tones depending on the angle of the light. There is a digital date window at 2 o'clock on the dial, which offers a moving surface with a sunray pattern, and an indicator (Time, Date & Winding), which shows the function of the crown, just below it. The display located at 9 o'clock shows Home Time. The dial, which is accompanied by diamond-decorated markers and a 12 o'clock marker written in Roman numerals, displays the local time zone via the hour and minute hands. Seconds are followed by the sub-dial located at 6 o'clock.
This stylish and useful model derives its strength from the manufacture Caliber UN-324 movement. The 53-jewels automatic movement, which hosts hours, minutes, small seconds, dual time zone, and date functions, operates at a frequency of 4Hz (28.800vph) and offers up to 48 hours of power reserve when fully wound. The movement, which has more than one patent on behalf of the brand, also features advanced technology components such as a silicon mainspring, used by Ulysse Nardin for the first time in the industry, and an anti-magnetic escapement.
The model comes with an alligator leather strap finished in matching color and a stainless steel folding clasp signed by Ulysse Nardin. For users who want to take the elegance part a little higher, the model also has a diamond bezel version.
