For centuries, perpetual calendar timepieces have existed. Yet it was in 1996 that Ulysse Nardin brought to market the world’s most functional perpetual calendar. Created by the master of watch innovation, Ludwig Oechslin, the timepiece, named the Perpetual Ludwig, marked a major milestone in watchmaking history. It allowed the forward and backward adjustment of all calendar displays over a single crown, eliminating the need to return the watch to the manufacturer in case of setting mistakes. Unlike the standard lever system, the timepiece revealed the very first perpetual calendar mechanism driven by wheels and gears.

An icon of sheer watchmaking perfection, the movement has appeared in Ulysse Nardin’s most significant timepieces, including the GMT+/- Perpetual with dual-time function, the mighty El Toro, and now, the Black Toro. Industry-wide, the 2013 launch of the Black Toro represents the best perpetual calendar timepiece developed to date. Stunning in 18-karat rose gold with its black dial and ceramic bezel, it offers the simplest setting capability of the calendar functions.

The movement we used for this watch is our own in-house deve- loped and patented Grand Tourbillon Xtreme Precision 1, one of the most accurate TB movements in the world.

Then, on special request, we have worked with master engraver Bernhard Ditzoff to develop the 18k white gold dial, which is an engraved 3-D interpretation of the official poster used for the Monaco Grand Prix 1965. just the hand engraving of the dial alone took over 80 hours of sculpturing, leaving the car coming out in contrast!
