Replica Ulysse Nardin Circus Minute Repeater Mens Watch 749-80

A richly animated circus scene decorates the black onyx dial of this exceptional minute repeater. Each of the six figures is hand-carved in gold. When the minute repeater lever is activated, the monkey begins interfering in the ballgame of the clown; this movement indicates the hour chiming. The trainer with the whip reaches out to the tiger, indicating the quarters. The tiger stretches its paw, indicating the minutes. The bear bows in front of the ballet dancer while the chiming mechanism is activated. Limited Edition of 30 pieces.
Few watchmakers require a book of operating instructions to accompany their timepieces. But the Ulysse Nardin dynasty is no ordinary watchmaker. Since 1846, Nardin and his descendents have produced award winning timepieces. These coveted watches are produced in extremely limited quantities. Ulysse Nardin's technical achievements are legendary. Its watches of the last thirty years have been exemplary. Among its many celebrated watches, are the Astrolabium Galileo Galilei (an automatic watch only 9mm thick that indicates the height and direction of the sun, moon and stars), the Planetarium Copernicus (displaying the solar system), and the Tellurium (that projects the earth in a geographically accurate perspective from the North Pole).
