The lot offered here is an exceptional piece of design and craftmanship by Ulysse Nardin. A pocket watch with minute-repeating, keyless, chronograph and instantaneous 30-minute register. The combined elements of white enamel dial harmonize in a symphony with its Breguet numerals, outer minute divisions and concentric fifths of a second chronograph divisions. The yellow-gold Hinged case has indeed been preserved in excellent conditions and further embellished with an oval button for the chronograph function. The movement is simply wonderful with clearly visible chronograph mechanism with blued steel Breguet balance spring with terminal curve and repeating on gongs activated by a slide on the band, a feature of the dials of some of the very best vintage timepieces and so appreciated by collectors.
