This particular model was crafted with Prince Albert of Monaco ,an avid environmentalist, in mind. Prince Albert latest mission is to protect the Mediterranean Bluefin Tuna from overfishing by getting it added to the Endangered Species List.
The watch is essentially a redressed Ulysse Nardin Maxi Marine Diver Watch available at THE WATCHERY for 30% off the List Price.
However the Monaco YS is fiercely black crafted from DLC or Diamond Like Carbon. A coating of DLC can dramatically increase the lifetime of the underlying steel. A dusty rose gold ring surrounds the sub dial below the hands, reminiscent of a life ring thrust out to sea into the flailing arms of the man overboard. Within the ring "Monaco" is branded in a fiery red.
The hands are dipped in gray colored lume which glow in dark adverse conditions. The watch is powered by a UN Caliber 26 automatic Chronometer.
Only 100 pieces of the Ulysse Nardin Monaco YS Marine Diver will be available for purchase; however, don't fret as THE WATCHERY has a mesmerizing collection of Ulysse Nardin's finer examples available, for you, at much reduced prices. Share in the beauty of a masterful timepiece from Ulysse Nardin and feel the sting of ocean on your face.
