When the Ulysse Nardin Classico Manufacture was initially released in 2015 it garnered attention for having the first in-house movement used in the Classic collection with the UN-320. However, I think the watch actually got interesting when they released the limited edition Classico Manufacture with a white “Grand Feu” enamel dial. The reason why this […]
Ulysse Nardin’s history and identity is deeply intertwined with that of the marine chronometer, and in a year underpinned by a return to vintage pieces for design inspiration, the brand has tapped into this history and recently launched the Ulysse Nardin Marine Torpilleur, which it calls a chronometer for the modern era (though based on […]
While perhaps historically best known for their marine chronometers, Ulysse Nardin is in modern times, an integrated manufacturer of complete watches and movements including some very high-end and complicated calibers. The Ulysse Nardin Executive Skeleton Tourbillon is exactly the latter. With an in-house flying tourbillon movement, extremely minimalist skeletonization, and an ultra modern look, the […]
For 2017, Swiss Ulysse Nardin updated one of their less-known but very capable watches into something that I feel finally gives the Classic Sonata watch the attention it deserves. The two new models are the reference 672-05/92 and the 673-05/90. For many people, this is the first time they will be paying attention to the […]
For SIHH 2017, Ulysse Nardin is bolstering its Classic collection with not one, not two, but three new watches.

Let us talk […]
At SIHH 2017, Ulysse Nardin debuts its newest concept timepiece, the Ulysse Nardin InnoVision 2. It comes 10 years after the original InnoVision that was released in 2007. Both of these are based on the famed Freak collection and feature innovations that Ulysse Nardin has or will implement into production models in the future. Just […]
Watch partnerships and collaborations can be hard to pull off. Some of them can be pretty divisive and questionable in the eyes of the average watch enthusiast, but others seem to make more sense. For the 2017 America’s Cup, luxury Swiss watch manufacturer Ulysse Nardin will be releasing the Diver Chronograph Artemis Racing watch in their continued partnership […]
If anyone new to watches were to ask me to describe the brand Ulysse Nardin in just a few words, I would definitely say that they are forward-looking, technical, and aesthetically bold. One example of this is their iconic Freak watch. It was one of the earliest watches to use silicon in the movement, and […]
We’ve found that rolling out a ’60s-inspired dive watch in 2017 is a pretty surefire way to turn some heads. But when Ulysse Nardin, a brand known for complex regatta timers and Freakish innovations takes the plunge, you really have to stop, think twice, and take a closer look. For 2017, they’ve introduced the Ulysse Nardin Diver […]
There are two iterations available in new 45mm Marine Chronometers. Both of the watches are adorned with different dials. One in an elegant blue sunburst, offset by white markers and cherry red accents for a style And the other is glossy white lacquered with blue numerals and hands. Powering these new Marine Chronometers is the UN-118 […]
