Ulysse Nardin Basel 2013 Pre View: The Black Sea.

You certainly kept in mind the wonderful article written by Marcus on the Black Sea with some red accents.

If you don't, here is the link:

This year, we have basically the same watch, but with some luminous blue indexes.

The case in in stainless steel, with a coating of vulcanized rubber. Rubber is also used for the strap, by the way, as well as for the crown, which is screwed.

The diameter is huge ( 45, 8 mm ), and the watch is water resistant to 200 meters.

It houses an automatic movement, as it is very à propos for a diving watch, with a power reserve of 42 hours.

For those who doubt that rubber is the best material for the case of a diving watch, Marcus, in his article, tested it in extrem conditions, and the outcome was convincing.

Here is the new beast, I meant, the new Black Sea:



I am not a big fan of black watches, to say all, but for those who are, it may be a tempting offer.

My second reserve is the presence of the date... Without, I think it would definitely convince me, even with its black case.

But well, not everybody is as stubborn as I am, hopefully for the watch industry!



Best,

Nicolas
