My rare exception...
I traditionally eschew jewels on a watch, as I don't think they add to the design.
However, having seen the jeweled and non-jeweled versions of this watch, I prefer the jeweled version.
The non jeweled version still has sapphires on the hours and the sapphire on the tourbillon. This version with the diamonds on inner bezel along with the sapphires actually does add to the design.
A beautiful watch Nicolas. This one has sapphires between the diamond hour markers. I usually see the ones with sapphire hour markers and diamonds between the hour markers more often.
Ulysse Nardin Royal Blue Tourbillon. One quick picture.
Of a watch we'll discuss a bit later. Just one thing I can already mention, though: This is one of the few Tourbillons I totally admire, along with the GP Gold Bridge(s) and a few JLCs. There is something spectacular in this watch. Even if I prefer the no...

I love their creations, and this one, Royal Blue Tourbillon is magnificent! Don't have one yet, but one day soon!
So you found the good place to discuss these creations.
Looking forward to reading more from you, and to sharing your ownership happyness, too! ;) Best, Nicolas
Nice picture Nicolas, this is a very elegant watch.....
and even though it is skeleton and with a Tourbillon, take away the jewels and I could easily see it on my wrist. Love these delicate hands, sooo sensual;) Cheers Francois from Down Under
Not to love it is like not to love a freshly baked....
baguette with Foie Gras and a lovely Sauterne, it means that there is a serious mental problem:) Cheers Francois from Down Under
Can't wait to hear and see motre on the Ulysse Nardin Royal Blue Tourbillon.
I must say It is a great looking watch by every standard. Looking forward to more. Bill
I, too, love this wonderful tourbillon ...
... unfortunately, there is no version completely void of jewels. Sapphires marking the hours are the minimum, but they aren't very conspicious. I think that the jewels really compromise the stunning effect of the transparent bridges. Marcus
True, Marcus. When I wrote " not jewelled ", I meant with the
Sapphires used as hour markers... Indeed. And this pleases me a lot, I must say! Best, Nicolas
I don't think I ever noticed the unique lugs on this case.
And with good reason - how do you not stare at what is inside?!? Looking forward to this follow up as well.
