Founded in 1846 in Le Locle, Switzerland, Ulysse Nardin is known in both the watchmaking and the nautical worlds for its highly accurate, highly complicated marine chronometers, which were used by over fifty of the world’s navies throughout the 1900s. Today, the company produces similarly complicated luxurious timepieces targeted at those who value individuality and character above all else.
The ref. 266-67/40 Marine Chronometer represents a union between functionality and elegant sophistication – a rare combination even for timepieces of this caliber. The frosting on the cake – it’s made by one of the most respected brands in the world of Haute Horlogerie. The watch’s aesthetics evoke those of traditional deck chronometers, so they effortlessly communicate its marine theme and nautical heritage. The case is sturdy, functional, robust in both design and execution, and the classic dial is easily legible thanks to its Roman numeral hour markers. The polished 18k Rose Gold case is complemented by a brown integrated crocodile leather strap, whose cozy fit contributes to the empowering character of the piece.
The Ulysse Nardin Marine Chronometer is powered by the impressive in-house caliber UN-26 – a 28-jewel COSC-certified automatic movement that operates at 28,800 vph and boasts a power reserve of 42 hours.
