Ulysse Nardin San Marco Ref. 131-88-9 33mm 18k

The Ulysse Nardin San Marco Ref. 131-88-9 from the 1990s is a watch that combines tradition, craftsmanship, and rare beauty. Crafted in 18-karat yellow gold with a diameter of 33 mm and a slim thickness of 9 mm, this watch exudes classic elegance. This is achieved by an automatic movement with a central seconds hand, protected by a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal. The truly extraordinary feature is the green enamel dial. Enamel is made by fusing finely ground glass powder at extremely high temperatures, resulting in a surface with minimal depth, vibrant colors, and a timeless sheen. Unlike paint or lacquer, enamel never fades; its hardness and beauty remain unaffected even after decades. Each dial is surprisingly unique, making this watch a true work of art for the wrist.

The dial is beautifully finished with outer gold radial hands, Roman numerals, and stripe indices, accented by luminous dots along the stripe. Every detail exudes refinement and contributes to the rich aesthetic of this watch. Founded in 1846, Ulysse Nardin has always had a strong connection to the sea, earning its reputation with highly accurate marine chronometers cherished by sailors worldwide. In the 1980s and 1990s, the brand revived a nearly forgotten craft: the art of enamel dials. This gave rise to the San Marco collection, commemorated in the iconic Piazza San Marco in Venice, a tribute to beauty, culture, and timeless elegance.

This San Marco Ref. 131-88-9, complete with its original gold buckle, embodies the refinement synonymous with Ulysse Nardin. More than just a watch, it is a piece of watchmaking history where innovation and tradition converge. At AWCo, we present this extraordinary timepiece as part of our collection, alongside other San Marco models with their captivating enamel dials. These watches are rare gems, allowing you to experience the unique magic of email art up close.
