lexander the Great. World Conqueror. Ambitious Leader. Mighty King. The unconquerable hero of Greek history and symbol of strength inspires Ulysse Nardin's Alexander the Great - Westminster Carillon Tourbillon Jaquemarts Minute Repeater, an exceptional timepiece that showcases the mastery of Ulysse Nardin watchmakers.
Its mechanics are housed in a 44 mm case of white gold or rose gold, and are water-resistant to 30 meters. The visible one-minute tourbillon is integrated into the dial, its bridge created in the same shape as those used on the tourbillons James Pellaton produced for Ulysse Nardin at the beginning of the 20th century.
Each part of the movement is decorated, angled and hand-finished.
Ulysse Nardin remains among the rare manufacturers in the world to use Jaquemarts on the dial of its wristwatch repeaters.
With this timepiece, Jaquemarts on the dial depict Alexander the Great clad in armor and engaged in battle. There are five hand-crafted figures in all, prominent in appearance against the deep, charcoal-colored background of the man made diamond dial. Other than the warrior in a static position on the far left, armed and ready for an attack, the Jaquemarts move in sync with the sound of gongs on the minutes, quarters and hours, or to a combination of these units of time.
The Westminster has four gongs, each with a different tone (Mi-Do-Re-Sol). As well, all movement parts are decorated, angled and finished by hand.

The development and use of man made diamond signifies years of research, investments and revolutions in watchmaking by Ulysse Nardin.
This decorative diamond is the culmination of millions of small, faceted diamond crystals engineered to grow together to form a continuous diamond layer.
The result: an authentic, highly resilient, two-dimensional diamond surface that sparkles with intensity, exhibiting various colors depending on its purity.
Ulysse Nardin Alexander the Great Westminster Carillon Tourbillon Jaquemarts Minute Repeater is a limited edition of 100.

gledao sam ga bas nedavno na ulisovom sajtu...dve od tri najvece komlikacije, kao dzingis kan... sta reci sem da mu se divim. mislim da je minute repeater i vizuelno vidljiv sa strane cifera i da neko od tih boraca udara drugog i tako pravi melodije...magican sat. cena? mislim da je oko pola miliona
