Ulysse Nardin Mega Yacht Moors in Miami
Held during the Watches & Wonders show in Miami, Ulysse Nardin’s CEO Patrick Pruniaux was proud to unveil the Mega Yacht on a yacht in sunny South Florida.
“There are two reasons we chose to do it here,” Pruniaux explained in an exclusive interview with Revolution.Watch. “The first one is that Ulysse Nardin is a partner of the Miami Yacht Show, which is taking place at the same time as Watches & Wonders. The two together give us the opportunity to celebrate our ability to manufacture haute horlogerie pieces and present them here to customers and the press.
The Marine Mega Yacht is a limited edition of 30 pieces and comes in a 44mm platinum case. Featuring a flying tourbillon, a realistic 3D moonphase indication (engraved to mimic the Moon’s surface) and a tide height indication, the Marine Mega Yacht gives today’s contemporary seaman everything he needs to know, in a stunning timepiece with nods to mega yachts, including propeller blades on the tourbillon cage. On the grand feu enamel dial, which is set up to look like a ship’s bow, the power reserve is displayed by a sliding scale with an anchor indicating the state of wind – clever and impressive looking.
The Marine Mega Yacht from Ulysse Nardin docked in Miami for its unveiling, but with only 30 pieces available, it is sure to be gone quickly.
