“With the new Ulysse Nardin Classico Enamel Champlevé Dragon, the manufacture honors, once again, the lost art of enameling, but this time, it’s through the legend of the Dragon, a symbol of success and prosperity. Legend claims that those who keep the mythical creature close will be granted guidance and protection.
Exuding a fiery spirit, the bright orange and yellow dragon seems ready to leap from the enamel champlevé dial. Set atop a background of the special blue dial of the Classico that represents Ulysse Nardin’s distinctive signature (often referred to as Ulysse Nardin Blue), the strong Dragon twists and writhes about the hour markers; an explosion of fire escaping his mouth setting the evening hours ablaze.
The beauty of the dragon dial is the result of Ulysse Nardin’s devotion to the lost art of enameling and a refined decorative technique that requires the dedication of a master craftsman. Each dial is an exceptional creation produced by a skilled artisan using a variety of colors that are created from different metallic oxides. ”
