Ulysse Nardin Jungle Minute Repeater Rose Gold #8/18 with Letter from Rolf W. S

Description: THERE ARE NO WORDS TO DESCRIBE THIS UNIQUE 1 OF 18 TIME PIECES. THIS WAS PURCHASED BY ME IN 1999. THE LETTER ADDRESSED TO ME FROM THE OWNER, ROLF W. SCHNYDE AND THE WATCH MAKER OLAF, CONGRATULATING ME ON MY PURCHASE. THE CLOISONNE DIAL, A PIECE OF ARTWORK, TOOK 6 MONTHS TO COMPLETE. THE WATCH COMES CPMPLETE WITH BOX AND PAPERS. IT HAS BEEN WORN EXACTLY THREE TIMES. THE SOUND OF THE MINUTE REPEATER IS EXCEPTIONAL. THE TIGER TAPS HIS PAWS FOR THE MINUTES AND THE PARROT MOVES IT BEAK FOR THE 1/4 MINUTES. THE FISH CONTINUALLY CIRCLE FOR THE SECONDS. Ulysse Nardin has come up with some detailed designs that break the traditional mold since it was revamped in the 1980s, and one watch that illustrates this trend is the Safari Minute Repeater. The face depicts a score of exotic animals including a monkey, lion, elephant, and giraffe, all set against a background of lush flowers and water. Its bold design is accented by a 18K ROSE GOLD case, alligator strap, and two dials that have a 3D appearance. The Safari Minute Repeater is water resistant up to 30 meters. This Ulysse Nardin Jungle Minute Repeater wristwatch features an 18K yellow gold bezel and an 18 karat rose gold case color. The two-piece strap is made of black leather with a buckle closure, and the lug width measures 42mm. The watch has a transparent caseback and a glossy case finish. The UN-78 movement powers the watch, which also has multiple functions including a repeater. The dial color is a unique combination of red, orange, and green, and the watch comes with a manual/booklet. This piece is a limited edition, number 8 out of 18, and was manufactured in Switzerland between 1990-1999.
