Fine Watchmaking would not exist without History; likewise there would be no History without Heroes. Giving free rein to his watchmaking genius, Ulysse Nardin inscribed his name in the annals of the nascent merchant navy during the second half of the 19th century. His marine chronometers, world-renowned measuring instruments, were used on many ships. Nearly 170 years later, Ulysse Nardin presents its Marine Chronometer Manufacture equipped with the in-house movement UN-118. It not only embodies the values of innovation, reliability and high precision that were cherished by the founder, but also marks another step towards the Ulysse Nardin company’s end goal: independence.

From the art of enameling to the precision of engineering and technology, Ulysse Nardin reveals through the Marine Chronometer that art and innovation go hand in hand in leading the company in the most independent of ways. Further illustrating Ulysse Nardin’s imagination and pioneering in watch making is the UN-118 caliber, produced using DiamonSil, Ulysse Nardin’s revolutionary alliance of diamond and silicon. Since the spark of international trade in the late 19th century, Ulysse Nardin has been making marine chronometers, keeping captains and their valued cargo precisely on course. The Marine Chronometer Manufacture, with its beautifully hand-crafted enamel dial, powered by the UN-118 Caliber, also includes Ulysse Nardin’s own oscillator and patented hairspring, proving again its leadership in the innovative use of avant-garde materials in the watch industry.
