Quick TakeThe Ulysse Nardin Blast Tourbillon Ref. 1723-400/BLACK distinguishes itself with a bold, yet meticulous construction that offers a glimpse into the essence of advanced watchmaking. Its standout feature, a silicon flying tourbillon within an X-shaped cage, is complemented by the first-ever platinum micro-rotor in a Ulysse Nardin Skeleton model. The combination of high-tech materials like titanium, ceramic, and silicon, paired with the elegance of a leather strap, crafts a watch that is as much a piece of modern art as it is a tribute to the mastery of time.

DescriptionThe Ulysse Nardin Blast Tourbillon Ref. 1723-400/BLACK is a testament to the brand's expertise in fusing technical performance with audacious design. The watch's architecture draws the eye with its tessellated horns and a multi-layered dial that presents a commanding view of the UN-172 Manufacture movement. Within this display of engineering, the flying tourbillon captivates as it performs its ballet at a rhythm of 2.5 Hz, anchored by a silicon escapement that underscores the brand's commitment to cutting-edge material use. This powertrain is not only a functional marvel but also a visual feast, with its 137 components working in harmony to offer a 72-hour power reserve.

Accentuating the watch's bold aesthetics, the monochromatic palette is interrupted by striking red accents, which animate the black backdrop with a vigorous pulse. The X-shaped cage that houses the flying tourbillon is a focal point, a symbol of strength and precision that aligns with the watch's robust exterior. The use of leather for the strap adds a touch of traditional craftsmanship, creating a comfortable juxtaposition against the Blast Tourbillon's otherwise modern visage. Notably, this model stands as the first of its kind within the Ulysse Nardin lineup to feature a platinum micro-rotor, elegantly positioned at 12 o’clock and offering an unobstructed view of the watch's intricate workings.
