Versatile and elegantly designed - the luxury watches from Ulysse Nardin

With a skeleton dial, for example, the Ulysse Nardin Skeleton Tourbillon Executive is a real eye-catcher among Ulysse Nardin's luxury watches. The wearers of this Ulysse Nardin Executive can watch the Manufacture calibre UN-171 including tourbillon (at 6 o'clock) through the sapphire crystal on both sides of the case. The movement, which is also essentially skeletonized, can only be wound by hand, has silicon technology and has a 170-hour power reserve. The Executive is also equipped with a striking bridge in the middle of the calibre. The cases are also made of modern materials such as ceramic and titanium with a generous 45 millimetre diameter. The Ulysse Nardin Executive Skeleton Tourbillon therefore weighs only 83.50 grams. The timepiece is also water-resistant to 30 metres (3 bar). This model of the Ulysse Nardin Executive series also features typical details of the Executive collection such as sword-shaped hands and large Roman numerals. The strap is made of leather in carbon structure with a ceramic folding clasp.

Changing over different time zones in seconds - Ulysse Nardin Executive

Another model in the Ulysse Nardin Executive collection is the Dual Time. In 1994, Ulysse Nardin developed the GMT+ (World Time Clock), which, thanks to its sophisticated technology, can change forwards and backwards within two time zones in seconds. A plus/minus correction allows the hour hand to be moved precisely to the desired local time without removing the Executive. The minute hand is not affected. This model Executive by Ulysse Nardin is waterproof up to 100 depth meters.The Ulysse Nardin label has created a 43 mm masculine timepiece with its Executive Dual Time series. A rectangular design element in the centre of the dial also makes the Executive appear much larger. The conspicuous detail is only interrupted by a totalizer and the date field. The practicable quick time change is made possible by a caliber UN-24. The caliber is equipped with an automatic winding mechanism (e.g. reference 246-00-3/42).

Modern History - Luxury Watches from Ulysse Nardin

In 1846, in the small town of Le Locle (Canton of Neuchâtel/Switzerland), the watch manufactory was founded, which today, after a fateful history, is one of the most important brands for luxury watches. Unfortunately, the founder Ulysse Nardin no longer lived his dream of worldwide fame. The fate of the label was taken over by Paul David, his son. This changed the range of pocket watches to precision ship chronometers. The timepieces were so accurate that they were even adopted by the US Navy in their ship's equipment. Eventually, Switzerland was isolated in 1942, which led to an enormous increase in customs duties. Other companies had already started to make copies of the excellent ship's clocks at this time. But the precision of the Ulysse Nardin brand was not achieved.
