Ulysse Nardin Freak X Rose Gold

Ulysse Nardin's Freak X Rose Gold, reference 2305-270/02, measures 43 mm across in titanium and gold. The case is 13.38 mm thick and carries a sapphire crystal front and back. There is no dial or hands in the conventional sense: the self-winding UN-230 movement itself rotates to indicate the hours and minutes, its flying carousel turning around its own axis. The calibre stores 72 hours of power reserve. An alligator leather strap closes the piece. Water resistance is rated to 50 metres, modest for a watch built around such an unconventional mechanism rather than diving.
