The precious panda, beloved for its distinctive beauty and serene magnetism, is unlike any other – honored and intrigued by all who lay eyes on it. A symbol of strength and resilience, the gentle giant continues its reign as a creature of mystery and mystique.

Inspired by the wonder the panda imparts – a fascination akin to a woman’s spell – is the new Ulysse Nardin Ladies Caprice Panda in 18-karat white gold.

Depicted by a plethora of black and white diamonds on a brilliant white background, the story of the timepiece sparkles with sweetness and depth as a mother panda and her cub feast on their favored treat, bamboo. A true jewel, the dial’s cheerfulness and original beauty is enhanced by vibrant, pinkish-colored rubies marking each hour; as a mother protects her child, the rubies appear to safeguard the bears.

Harnessing its treasured contents firmly in place is its 18-karat white gold case and clear sapphire-crystal case back. Its inner workings feature a superbly efficient, self-winding movement with a power reserve of 42 hours, as well as a diamond-set rotor in 22-karat gold. Also ablaze in diamonds is its stunning bezel, accented by two perfectly centered squares of sixteen diamonds each, drawing the eye in to take a closer look.
