Ulysse Nardin Blast [Amoureuxpeintre] Limited Edition

In collaboration with fashion designer Amoureuxpeintre, Ulysse Nardin presents an artistic interpretation of a horological object, the Blast [Amoureuxpeintre].

For Kyrgyzstan-born Vsevolod Sever Cherepanov, known by the artistic moniker Amoureuxpeintre, his philosophy is rooted in the belief that simplicity invites deeper inquiry, prompting an exploration of an object’s true essence.

The Ulysse Nardin Blast [Amoureuxpeintre] Limited Edition watch celebrates the balance between revealing the mechanics of the timepiece in a subtle, restrained way—inviting the wearer to discover meaning beyond the surface.

Guided by Amoureuxpeintre’s pure and minimalist artistic vision, Ulysse Nardin meticulously reimagined every element of the Skeleton X, creating a one-of-a-kind timepiece, which is a combination of transparency and blurriness, that transforms the concept of reading time. By removing elements from the dial, Ulysse Nardin achieved a design that seamlessly combines minimalism, functionality, and readability.

At the heart of this creation beats the Manufacture Calibre UN-371, offering a 96-hour power reserve and featuring one of the FREAK VISION’s greatest innovations: a wide, super-light balance wheel in silicon, with nickel flyweights.

The 42 mm anthracite lightweight sandblasted titanium case and bezel complement Amoureuxpeintre’s muted color palette and visionary aesthetic. The watch features a frosted open sapphire case back adorned with Amoureuxpeintre’s signature, while the crown has been refined, removing any ribbed texture to enhance the clean lines of the design.

Beneath the anthracite hands coated with grey Superluminova, an unmistakable blurred sapphire skeleton dial brings this concept to life. The frosted-ice effect was achieved through an advanced laser technique, while the fumé effect was created using thin metallization. This ingenious and artfully blurred result was the culmination of over two years of development.

The result is a dial that subtly exposes the skeletonized movement’s outlines, faintly revealing the mechanics of time like a window of deconstruction.

This limited-edition series of 29 artworks is presented on a modern grey Alcantara strap, paired with an anthracite PVD titanium sandblasted tang buckle. A special watch box, crafted in anthracite and grey tones, completes this exceptional collaboration.
