2014 Ulysse Nardin Freak Summer Shots.

Jul 20, 2014,23:18 PM
 

I took a few watches with me, for this week end outside Paris. And the Freak was one of them.

I wanted to see how the encounter between a futuristic Watch and a very classic environment could work. I am convinced.

 


Pictures taken at the  Chateau de Gilly, in Bourgogne.

As for the car, well, you know it too well, now...  wink

Best,

Nicolas

IMHO best wristwatch ever from UN

IMHO probably the best wristwatch UN ever made! A founding watch for UN, even more, again IMHO, than La Trilogie du Temps. Well, add to this a UN wristwatch with Peseux 260 [yes, they exist as a wristwatch:) ], a ship chronometer, a nice chronometer rattr... 

I am desperately hunting this Peseux 260 version...

So, I can only agree... As for the ship chronometer, yes, also in my wish list. They have some nice vintage chronos, too. As for the modern register, the Sonata is not bad, either. ;) Best, GL. Nicolas

A nod to the past and the future at the same time

of a fantastic watch.. And what a car for the companion Enjoy your trip Nicolas Sam

That UN Freak is so much avantgarde.. Futuristic, yet a bit "crazy" appeal.. :)

What comes to my mind: - extraordinary, somewhat eclectic, but also with a futuristic balance One tends to have at least one secondary look, a look to understand the concept & layout, a look to be submerged into the fascination of such a time-piece, a pro... 

I will take soem pics with the new car, but it was fun to mix these 2 worlds together.
