Ulysse Nardin Macho Palladium 950 Watch

The Ulysse Nardin Macho Palladium 950 watch demonstrates the unwavering commitment of Ulysse Nardin to expanding the boundaries of luxury watchmaking.  In the choice of materials, elemental design, and luxurious craftsmanship, the Macho Palladium watch represents a benchmark of quality. 

The design of the Ulysse Nardin Macho Palladium watch is highly unusual, its 43 X 40.5mm case featuring an oval form with concave curvature both on the wrist side, and also on the dial side, which gives it a gently dished appearance; added to this complex form, are fascinating contrasts between brushed and polished surfaces, each perfectly finished, their impression heightened by the radiance of the exceptional material which Ulysse Nardin has chosen for this watch. 

As its name implies, the Ulysse Nardin Macho Palladium watch is crafted from pure palladium, an extremely rare element which is related to platinum, and known for its hardness, luxurious heft, and beautiful luminous whiteness; being a pure material, with no plating whatsoever, palladium is not subject to any kind of surface discoloration.  The Ulysse Nardin Macho Palladium watch is animated by the excellent UN-27 Caliber movement, which incorporates a date display, as well as a highly interesting power reserve complication. 

Rather than merely showing a hand which moves across a scale, the Ulysse Nardin power reserve display utilizes both a hand and a disc which operate together to show the remaining tension in the mainspring, a solution first employed by Ulysse Nardin on a pocket watch produced in 1912.  Beyond this, the UN-27 Caliber has proven its mettle, having passed all of the demanding examinations of the Controle Officiel Suisse des Chronometres (COSC), enabling the Macho Palladium 950 watch to proudly bear the title "Chronometer" upon its uniquely detailed dial, which is produced in two distinct versions.  The exciting Ulysse Nardin Macho Palladium 950 watch is available on a thickly padded crocodile strap with a deployant buckle crafted from palladium, or a massive matching bracelet in solid palladium.
