Freak X Ice and Freak X Magma - Ulysse Nardin
Two new lava red carbon-fiber and frosted white Freak X timepieces.

The unique engineering and design of the Freak X Ice and Freak X Magma models take the Freak concept to a new level. Reflecting respectively the polar ice floes and the majestic volcanos that regenerate the earth, the Freak X Ice is made of titanium and the Freak X Magma of lava red carbon fiber and titanium black DLC.

Both are powered by the self-winding movement Caliber UN-230, with flying carrousel movement rotating around its own axis, oversize central oscillator with large diameter, silicium balance wheel, and index and bridges with Superluminova. The movement has a power-reserve of 72 hours and can be seen through the sapphire caseback of both timepieces. 

Freak X Magma

Freak X Ice and Freak X Magma

Made from a combination of ultra-light carbon fiber and red, marbled epoxy resin, each Freak X Magma is unique. Stripped down to its essential components, it is ultra-light, scratch-resistant and streamlined... a vigorous and virile watch, a watch of style, action and elegance 

With a red point-de-bride and a black leather strap - equipped with a folding clasp – it is evocative of obsidian volcanic rock and the lava flow at its origin; the combination of sandblasted and polished-effects on the bezel and a satiny smooth dial reflects a volcanic environment. The Superluminova applied on red color allows the wearer to read the time even in the pitch of night. 

The watch is available in boutiques only for 27,000 euros.
