Ulysse Nardin has a history spanning more than 170 years, from its earliest days. The Swiss company has raised the bar in the watch industry. It was especially their marine chronographs that made them famous. And the brand's anchor logo still reminds us of their nautical roots. Their portfolio is incredibly diverse and ranges from the classic watches in the Marine collection to the sporty dive watches in the Diver series and the futuristic timekeepers in the Freak line.

In 2001, the Freak made waves as one of the first watches to feature silicon. Silicon is an extremely lightweight, hard, and non-magnetic material. Considered by many to be the future of watchmaking, The Freak also revolutionized the look of Haute Horlogerie, with a design without a dial, crown, or hands. The movement shows the time while using the back cover to wind the watch and set the time through the bezel.
