Ulysse Nardin has collaborated with the legendary Italian erotic comic artist and playwright Milo Manara to celebrate the 40th anniversary of his masterpiece, ‘Click!’. This partnership has resulted in a stunning new series of limited edition watches that pay homage to Manara’s unique artistic vision.
Born in Northern Italy, Milo Manara has been a prominent figure in the world of illustration and screenwriting for over fifty years. He has studied classical painting, drawing influence from renowned artists such as Rubens, Caravaggio, and De Chirico. This background has allowed him to develop a distinctive style that has earned him a reputation as a master of realistic erotic comic art.
The Ulysse Nardin Milo Manara series features three different models, each limited to just 40 pieces. Crafted from 904 stainless steel, these timepieces boast a sapphire crystal and a 40mm case diameter, offering water resistance up to 30 meters. The dials are adorned with Micropainted artwork and rhodium-coated hands, treated with Super Luminova for an exquisite night-vision glow.
Encased in this artistry is the top-grade ultra-thin mechanical movement of the 2892 caliber, known for its precision and stability, vibrating at 28,800 times per hour. A black matte alligator leather strap complements each piece, ensuring a luxurious yet comfortable fit.
In tribute to ‘Click!’, the watches encapsulate the allure of the comic’s imagery, making a statement of artistic excellence and horological craftsmanship. Each watch is uniquely numbered at the 9 o’clock position, signifying its exclusivity and individuality. Experience the fusion of fine art and watchmaking with the Ulysse Nardin Milo Manara collection, where each piece is not just a timekeeper, but a canvas of storytelling and celebration.
