Ulysse Nardin presents the "Caprice Panda"

 

Press release

Ulysse Nardin Caprice Panda.

The precious panda, beloved for its distinctive beauty and serene
magnetism, is unlike any other – honored and intrigued by all who lay
eyes on it. A symbol of strength and resilience, the gentle giant
continues its reign as a creature of mystery and mystique.

Inspired by the wonder the panda imparts – a fascination akin to a
woman's spell – is the new Ulysse Nardin Ladies Caprice Panda in
18-karat white gold.

Depicted by a plethora of black and white diamonds on a brilliant white
background, the story of the timepiece sparkles with sweetness and depth
as a mother panda and her cub feast on their favored treat, bamboo. A
true jewel, the dial's cheerfulness and original beauty is enhanced by
vibrant, pinkish-colored rubies marking each hour; as a mother protects
her child, the rubies appear to safeguard the bears.

Harnessing its treasured contents firmly in place is its 18-karat white
gold case and clear sapphire-crystal case back. Its inner workings
feature a superbly efficient, self-winding movement with a power reserve
of 42 hours, as well as a diamond-set rotor in 22-karat gold. Also
ablaze in diamonds is its stunning bezel, accented by two perfectly
centered squares of sixteen diamonds each, drawing the eye in to take a
closer look.

A lovely timepiece for a cherished lady, the limited-edition Caprice
Panda marks one of Ulysse Nardin's most memorable collections.
