Ulysse Nardin

Dating to circa 1995 according to Bonhams, this Ulysse Nardin chronograph wristwatch (reference 541-22) is cased in 39mm 18k pink gold with a transparent case back.

The watch is powered by the manual-winding calibre 2612 movement. The dial is described as ivory-coloured and silvered, featuring four subsidiary dials: a combined moon phase display and date indicator at 12 o'clock, a 30-minute chronograph counter at 3 o'clock, a 12-hour counter at 6 o'clock, and running seconds at 9 o'clock. The case features distinctive articulated stirrup-style lugs fitted to an exotic leather strap with a signed gold-plated buckle, accompanied by the maker's box and documentation.

Identity and Case Construction
This wristwatch represents Ulysse Nardin reference 541-22, catalogued by Bonhams as dating to circa 1995. The case is constructed from 18k pink gold with a catalogued diameter of 39mm, a transparent back, and signed elements. Visual observations record articulated stirrup-style T-bar lugs attached to a brown scale leather strap. The case band integrates rectangular chronograph pushers flanking a fluted crown, alongside a recessed corrector button on the case band.
Movement and Source Limitations
Bonhams records the movement as manual winding calibre 2612. The movement itself and its transparent back are not visible in the primary cataloguing photograph, meaning internal finishing and calibre markings are not independently verifiable from the image. No individual case or movement serial numbers are listed in the auction catalogue entry. Bonhams reports the strap as endangered species leather fitted with a signed gold-plated buckle, subject to CITES export regulations outside the EU, accompanied by a maker's presentation box and warranty card.
