Chinese astrology became popular in the West during the 20th century and is traditionally based on 12-year cycles represented by 12 animals. Among these, in 8th place of the zodiac, is the goat which began ‘its’ year on 19 February, just past. 2015 is therefore set to be rather artistic as this little mammal symbolises creativity, imagination and therefore, by extension, fantasy. Ulysse Nardin rightly puts its creativity to work on the dial of its Classico, here, which is chiselled and filled with enamel. A white goat with its kids is peacefully positioned on a blue-tinged decor lightly nuanced by a golden shrub. At the heart of this miniature painting three watch hands display hours, minutes and seconds. These features are powered by a UN-815 COSC-certified automatic calibre which has a 42-hour power reserve and is housed in a pink gold 40mm diameter case. Price: 39,800 CHF
