Ulysse Nardin Marine Chronograph “Manufacture” 43mm
Stainless Steel on Black Crocodile Strap Chronograph Automatic with Skeleton Back The new automatic chronograph caliber UN-150 is another of Ulysse Nardin’s proud achievements. With a 48-hour power reserve, it displays the hours, minutes, small seconds at 9 o’clock, a date aperture at 4.30 and a chronograph showing the seconds in the center, as well as a minute counter at 3 o’clock and an hour counter at 6 o’clock. Made up of 322 components, the movement required two years of adjustments, fine-tuning and finishing after its rights were acquired from Ebel. Today the UN-150 is made in-house by Ulysse Nardin,which has also endowed it with its own silicon escapement that beats at 28.800 vph. In my eyes it is the purity of the dial that instantly attracts the attention of the Marine Chronograph Manufacture.Made by the Donzé Cadrans workshops – by the way acquired by the Ulysse Nardin in 2011 – it is a unique homage to the founder’s designs. - Fixed bezel ring with a slightly tapered coined edge finish.
