Ulysse Nardin, renowned for its bold and unconventional watch designs, has partnered with Amoureuxpeintre to unveil a limited-edition Blast timepiece that embodies artistic minimalism. This marks the first time that Vsevolod Sever Cherepanov, a visionary designer known for his work with Nike, Matthew Williams at Alyx, and his own label SEVER, has brought his creative aesthetic to the world of haute horology.
A Fusion of Art and Horology
The Ulysse Nardin Blast Amoureuxpeintre is a testament to Cherepanov’s signature style—monochromatic, understated, yet deeply expressive. Inspired by the frosted glass panels found in modern architecture, the watch features a sapphire dial with a frosted effect, achieved using cutting-edge laser technology. A thin metallic layer adds a mesmerizing fumé gradient, creating a dial that is both mysterious and captivating.
Beneath the anthracite-colored hands—coated with gray Super-LumiNova for enhanced readability—the dial subtly reveals the intricate UN-371 skeletonized movement. This interplay of light and shadow invites closer inspection, making the Blast Amoureuxpeintre more than just a watch—it’s an artistic statement.
Technical Excellence: The UN-371 Movement
Beyond its striking aesthetics, the UN-371 movement delivers exceptional performance. Crafted with anti-magnetic silicon components, including the balance spring, escape wheel, anchor, and balance, the movement ensures precision and longevity. It operates at 21,600 vibrations per hour and boasts an impressive 96-hour power reserve, making it a reliable companion for collectors and enthusiasts alike.
The watch’s anthracite sapphire caseback provides a glimpse into its 173 meticulously assembled components, further highlighting Ulysse Nardin’s commitment to innovation.
Sleek Titanium Construction & Refined Comfort
Encased in a 42mm lightweight, sandblasted titanium case with a matching titanium bezel, the Blast Amoureuxpeintre exudes modern sophistication. The gray Alcantara strap enhances its monochrome aesthetic, offering a luxurious yet subtle finishing touch.
