Perpetual Calendar by Ulysse Nardin - Black Toro Timepiece
Today, the watch market presents a wide range of variety of unique models with a perpetual calendar. Such models have appeared long ago.
In 1996, the famous watchmaker Ulysse Nardin has released the Perpetual Ludwig watch, created by an outstanding watchmaker Ludwig Oechslin. The unique watch was equipped with the caliber, which allows customizing all the pointers of the calendar mechanism by rotating only the crown. Oechslin proposed an entirely new approach - developed by the caliber of their work due to the rotation of three gears and pinions.
Over time, the perpetual calendar mechanism has become the heart of many Ulysse Nardin watches: GMT + / - Perpetual with switchable time zone and permanent "home" time indication, the brutal El Toro.
