Carmelo Anthony Watch of the Day: Ulysse Nardin Dual Time Manufacture
The new Manufacture collection is fitted with the brand’s in-house Caliber UN0334, which enables the second time zone and date to be adjusted both forward and backward. The home time indicator in the porthole at 9 clock reads time on a 24-hour scale, while the main dial is reserved for local time. This is achieved simply by pressing the (+) or (-) pushers positioned at 10 o’clock and 8 o’clock, without having to remove the watch from the wrist or interrupting its timekeeping. The calendar function automatically synchronizes with adjustments made in either direction.
Other features include a double window Big Date display that is also adjustable in both directions, and a large window for the small seconds indication at 6 o’clock. Case options include 18k rose gold or steel, on a leather strap or a steel or rose gold bracelet. The movement, with a 48-hour power reserve, has a silicon escapement.
