With the Hourstriker Oil Pump, Ulysse Nardin pays tribute to industry. The dial, in fact, reproduces oil extraction fields with pumps at work. It is a limited edition of 18 in pink gold and 18 in platinum. The arms of the oil pumps are Jaquemarts, animated figures that move up and down in concert with the sound of the gong striking the hours. The pumps move in synchrony with the hammer that rings the gong. The chime mechanism can be activated or deactivated simply by pressing a button.
