Description: For sale is a ONE OF A KIND Vintage Ulysse Nardin 18K Gold & Diamond Ladies Pendant WatchDESCRIPTION: CASE - 24.5 mm diameter (without the stem and crown), three leaf, solid 18k yellow gold open face pendant watch with a broad polished gold bezel, double hinged case with the back cover embellished with 24 diamonds (Ulysse Nardin was an upper end Swiss company that often used 18K gold and diamonds in their casework), and the diamonds surround an onion shaped opalescent central stone. There is a long stemmed, fluted gold crown (pendant) with round bow placed at the twelve position. The cuvette or movement cover is polished gold with the inside of the cover having the Helvetia mark and 18K, while the inside of the back cover is engraved with the Nardin trademark logo registered in Switzerland by Paul D. Nardin of Le Locle on May 02, 1886. The inner cover is engraved with the following, “Ulysse Nardin LOCLE, 9904” and inside of a cameo is the profile of 'Helvetia', the Swiss hallmark for 18k gold. (Case no 9667 has been attributed by experts to circa 1900, and therefore case no. 9904 is dated by that method.) DIAL - White porcelain dial with blue enameled Breguet hour numerals, outer gold dotted minute track with silver markers placed every five minutes. There are gilt Continental style 'Spade' hands and the dial is unsigned. MOVEMENT – This is a finger bridge and partial plate movement, not signed but typical of the Ulysse Nardin movements that I have seen in the past. It does (importantly) bear the same serial number as the case 9904 indicating that it is indeed a Nardin movement. This would be a jeweled (?17), straight-line lever escapement, with cut bimetallic balance, blued steel Breguet balance spring in a finger bridge and partial plate movement design. The movement is keyless, pendant wound and pin set. The ratchet winding gear appears to have wolf’s teeth gearing, made famous by Patek Philippe, but also used by other fine Swiss watch companies. Movement is marked ‘Swiss’. CONDITION: CASE – Very good condition with mild surface scratching throughout the outer case and the cuvette. DIAL – Very good condition MOVEMENT – A fine Nardin movement. Numbering matches the signed case and is important since the case is signed properly.
