Ulysse Nardin Executive Lady Dual Time Watch

Using their popular UN-24 "dual time" automatic movement, Ulysse Nardin released this female version of their Executive Dual Time watch. Though not perhaps inline with traditional Ulysse Nardin aesthetic, the Executive Dual Time collection has been a good seller for the Swiss brand. The dials all have have segments of mother-of-pearl, matched with various colors (such as the above watch in purple). Also note the available diamonds on the dial.

The second timezone is located "digitally" on the left of the dial. That is the second timezone hour indicator, and the minutes are read with the main minute hand. There is also a "big date" indicator and subsidiary seconds hand. Nice looking and functional right? The case is 40mm wide and available in steel or 18k rose gold. The white bezel is in ceramic, as are the pushers on the left of the case to change the second timezone. The strap is either in white rubber or alligator. The Executive Lady collection is unique in style and mixes modernity with some classic aesthetics nicely.

Filed under: Timepieces / Watches

Pilo & Co. has released a watch for long distance relationships. It is a cute concept and the Doppio Orario (Dual Time) watches pull it off well. This way you can always know what time it is for them, even when you are so far apart. A sweet romantic concept personified in a functional watch. The timepieces come in male or female sizes, but each share a uniquely labeled feature, "his time" and "her time." The slightly larger watch face will be "My" time, while the smaller upper face will be the labeled with "his" or "her" time depending on the model.

The woman's version of the Doppio Orario comes in a steel case with or without diamonds (1.05 ct.) on the bezel, and each with a mother of pearl face, available in various shades. The men's watches have a black mother of pearl or an ivory colored face. Each watch has two quartz movement inside, with a single subsidiary seconds dial for the main time face. Each watch has also a few different strap options available.
