Extremely Rare Solid 9ct Gold Ulysse Nardin Chronometer Mens Watch C1955

1940 - 1960
Description

Fully serviced with a 12 month warranty.

This is a very fine example of a gents classic wristwatch made by the world renowned premier maker Ulysse Nardin, regarded as the best American watchmaker.

The dial, hands and winding crown are completely original - they have never been restored or retouched in any way.

The 17 jewel manual wind movement is just superb.

The watch case measures 33mm in diameter excluding the crown.

A new glass has been fitted and the case professionally polished.

Ulysse Nardin are one of the most exclusive makers and it is rare to find this watch in such original condition in a 9ct gold case dating to 1955, indeed this is the first of its kind we have ever come across.

As you would expect the watch is fully marked on the dial, movement and case. It comes with a brand new high quality presentation box.

The case is fully hallmarked.

It comes complete with a new premium quality chestnut brown leather strap.

The watch case is mid size and measures 32mm in diameter not including the crown.

Overall this watch is in outstanding condition and highly sought after by Nardin collectors, indeed it looks as if it was rarely worn.

The watch has been fully serviced. It has been professionally overhauled, the process is highly detailed and meticulous.

It is stripped down to its component parts and each part is examined under a microscope for signs of wear, any worn parts are replaced with genuine manufacturers parts. Each part is then thoroughly cleaned in a three stage ultrasonic cleaning process.

The movement is then fully assembled using manufacturers approved oils and lubricants and is carried out in a clean room environment. The movement is then checked and adjusted for accurate time keeping. The cases are polished and sealed.

Obviously this is not a cheap or quick process which is why our watches are sometimes a little more expensive than others but you can be assured our watches will give you reliable and dependable service and will not require further service for many years.
