European Watch Clock and Jewellery Fair 1984 BF 213
Ulysse Nardin’s astrolabe watch constitutes a stunning technological accomplishment, achieved after years of intricate calculations and patient research. It features a planisphere over which run solar, lunar and dragon-month hands as well as measure edges... The number of different indications provided by this timepiece would fill an entire page! Not counting its extra-thin selfwinding movement, the mechanism comprises 101 parts. Its water-resistant case is made of 18K gold and its hand-engraved dial is protected by a sapphire crystal. (ULYSSE NARDIN “Galileo Galilei” Astrolabe)
