New Maxi Skeleton


Ulysse Nardin is well known for developing and producing specialized timepieces of the highest technical level in limited editions. Using the company's patented inventions, these often include complications offered by no other watchmaker, such as the renowned Trilogy of Astrolabium, Planetarium and Tellurium; the Jaquemart Minute Repeater and the Hour Striker San Marco. Now, Ulysse Nardin has launched the 'Maxi Skeleton', a watch with a hand-engraved skeleton movement that acts as the dial.
By showing the manual wind movement of the Maxi Skeleton, Ulysse Nardin flamboyantly displays the the hundreds of tiny pieces combined in an intricate web of gears and wheels - a true masterpiece both from a workmanship and visual perspective.
The watch case is 43.5mm in diameter and available in 18ct rose gold (ref. 3006-200) and 18ct white gold (ref. 3000-200). Both are limited to 80 pieces.
