Ulysse Nardin Royal Blue Tourbillon. Another dream piece.
41 mm platinum case. Christophe Claret was involved in the creation of the movement. And a superb creation playing with transparency, light, colors.
Not a fan of Tourbillons, but here, this is a very notable exception. A dream watch, for me.
Best,

Those hands!! Those hands!!
They are either incredibly cool or completely hideous. For the life of me, I can’t determine which one of those they are.

Normally, I’m not this indecisive....
So I’ll get there on the hands. But either way, I really like the watch. It reminds me a little bit of the one I have incoming: Think Platinum + Blue Dial + Tourbillon.

I’ll give you a clue: it’s made by my favorite independent brand
Guess that and you should get the watch as I’m 99% certain it’s the only blue-dialed platinum tourbillon they’ve ever made.

Yes!!!!
And the watch?
Another clue: as fate would have it, you used the name of the watch in your title to this post (and it’s not tourbillon).

Ha, ha, ha, I already said not tourbillon 😀
C’mon Nico, this one shouldn’t stump you so badly 😀
LOL!! Has the mustache won? It’s not Ulysse.
Let me know if you want to give up... or keep on going 😀
It’s definitely another Dream Piece!!
Going back about a decade, the world’s lightest tourbillon carriage at 0.18 grams and the world’s only fast-beat tourbillon at 36,000 vph. Same movement used today in the De Bethune DB28T.

I look forward to sharing some pics when the real thing turns up here shortly.

Same than the Sonata and the perpetual calendar, indeed. Not consensual ones. [nt]

I had not heard CC was involved with the movement design
An added specialty for this uber-special watch!
I have always found this watch to offer a unique charm.
I can't think of another that has the same vibe... I really love this watch.
