Ulysse Nardin and the US Navy
Ulysse Nardin introduced the Marine Torpilleur as a bridge between its classical and modern timepieces, leveraging its legitimacy in marine chronometers and other military timepieces to create a contemporary classic. Limited to 173 pieces — the number of years Ulysse Nardin has been in operation — this new Marine Torpilleur is a 44mm wrist chronometer. The dial of this watch is very similar to the originals, and the hands are exactly the same, but the timepiece has been upgraded with modern-day advancements, using Ulysse Nardin’s cutting-edge silicium technology to guarantee the precision for which its predecessor was renowned.
The Marine Torpilleur timepieces are an interesting combination of the past and the future, the perfect bridge for Ulysse Nardin, which is in the unique position of using its illustrious past to reinvigorate its present and future.
