We all know that Nardin Watches, which started from nautical beginnings, was famous for creating high-quality nautical astronomical clocks in the early days. Today, Athens' deep connection to the sea continues in the traditional classic style of Athens sailing marine series, as well as the diver watch DIVER series. Shark as a symbol of the ocean, naturally become an important design element of Ulysse Nardin watches, in the past almost every year, shark-themed diving watches, and last year's new product, is the DIART diving series chronograph watch "Jaws" limited edition, today let us once again through the real picture, to enjoy this watch. (Model NO: 1503-170LE-1A-GW/3B)
This Great White Shark is 44 mm in size, although it is on the large side, but because the watch is made of titanium,
Its inherent lightness and excellent ergonomics make it not only not very picky, but also a very comfortable wearing experience. The iconic Athens nameplate design on one side of the watch is engraved with an individual number, 300 representing the great white shark, limited to 300 pieces.
The other side screws down the crown, which is tightly protected by a shoulder guard design to prevent accidental collisions underwater that could open up and enter the water. The upper and lower two timing buttons also have a lock handle design, and the timing needs to be opened first before operation. The titanium shell was fully brushed by Athens.
This diver's watch draws inspiration directly from the defined white and grey body color of the great white belly of the great white shark. When we look at the theme color of the watch, we restore the main white color to match the gray disc, and the silver-gray luster of the titanium shell. Like the diver's bezel, it also adopts the white rubber rotating bezel with record pattern, which is common to Athens diver's watches.
The gray dial, not only embellished with blue and white elements, adds a refreshing feeling to the watch, while Athens gives the gray dial a very delicate grained texture effect, reminiscent of the skin of a great white shark with toothed scales. As a diver's watch with chronography, it adopts a three-eye layout, while the 6 o'clock sub-dial and built-in round date window.
As a professional diving tool, this great white shark performs very well in terms of the necessary clarity of readability, and you can see the hands, hour markers, 0 o'clock starting position of the bezel, all coated with a light blue Super-LumiNova™ luminous coating.
(The watch is covered with the original film during the shooting) The watch is engraved with a great white shark pattern on the case back, compared with the previous blue shark, hammerhead shark, lemon shark and other special editions, the great white shark is definitely the most ferocious case back design in the shark series of watches. Under the case back, Athens is equipped with a UN-150 self-winding movement, equipped with a silicon escapement, accurate and reliable, full chain can provide a 48-hour power reserve, its performance is excellent, but some cousins may not know much about the UN-150 movement, in fact, this movement has a lot of origins, has an interesting history, in fact, it was acquired from Ebel, if we go back further, the original version of the movement is the Lemania 1340 automatic chronograph movement, in theory, It is also rooted in the same origin as the Breguet 582 movement, and if you have the opportunity to do so in the future, I will give you a detailed introduction again.
The watch is accompanied by a white rubber strap that distinguishes between two buckle styles, the pin buckle and the folding clasp. Athens tape, its comfort, whether in the sense of wrapping, or softness are very good, I often tell you, I like very much, Athens diver's watch rubber strap, and the lug connection with the extra link piece design, which is equivalent to an extension surface, to contact your wrist, so that the actual hand experience, in order to be well compatible with different sizes of wrists.
I once talked to you about this watch, saying that it actually shows Athens' mature use of color, making the great white shark both sporty and fashionable, making it not only suitable for professional underwater adventures within 300 meters of water resistance, but also suitable for daily life. The watch is limited to 300 pieces and the official price is 104,100 yuan, so if you like it, you may wish to pay more attention.
