Ulysse Nardin Marine Torpilleur 175 Years Watch Collection

 

Ulysse Nardin represents a dying breed of historic replica watches sale manufacturers that have preserved their extremely rich heritage while constantly innovating in the areas of technology and design. Because Ulysse Nardin never stops refining its product range, and there is much to learn from its history, Ulysse Nardin isn’t drawn to one or two iconic watches. Instead, it continues to offer some cool new watches that come with legit stories and details. The flip side is that these do require some extra effort to discover in person. The Ulysse Nardin Marine Torpilleur 175 Years watch collection is a prime example.

Personally, the more time I spend with Ulysse Nardin watches and talking to some of the people behind the actual watches and movements, the more I fall in love with this strange brand. Although instantly recognisable, in my experience UN swims against the tide and incorporates a small number of small details that can only be appreciated in person and often only after prolonged wear. The Ulysse Nardin Marine Torpilleur 175 Years watches replica high quality collection is a great example of this, and even though I didn’t like it at all from the official pictures alone, the moment I put them on I fell in love with them.

Ironically, the root of both pro and con is the same thing: proportion. In the images, the new 175th Anniversary Edition Marine Torpilleur (more on the name and the story behind it later) looks rather bulky from a case perspective, with some petite dial elements added to it. In the metal and on the wrist, these nuances are rightly represented in these new, smaller, more refined iterations of the Marine collection, now available in 42mm and 44mm wide cases, depending on the specific version.

Available in 42mm widths are Marine Torpilleur Blue Enamel, Marine Torpilleur Panda, Marine Torpilleur Moonphase and the striking-looking Marine Torpilleur Tourbillon Grand Feu. This 44mm wide watch is the Marine Torpilleur Chronograph of the Year. The case is impressively thick at just around 11mm, with the Annual Calendar Chronograph measuring 13.66mm thick and 44mm in diameter. All of this is powered by Ulysse Nardin’s in-house movement, with the escape wheel, balance spring and anchors all using silicon and DiamonSIL components developed and produced in-house – not surprising given the role Ulysse Nardin played in the development process. strangeness.

Now, a little bit of history. The Torpilleur series is named after small, fast torpedo boats whose agility ensures they can defeat larger ships with ease. The Torpilleur is therefore a lighter, thinner version of the Ulysse Nardin marine chronometer. What are these connections to the ocean? It builds on Ulysse Nardin’s history as a successful and trusted supplier of marine chronometers to more than 50 navies, geodetic institutes and observatories.

Later, the Ulysse Nardin pocket watch became a treasured extension of the deck observatory – these pocket watches were smaller, more compact, but more accurate, and one would be on board the ship, carried by the captain or his backup crew. It also opened the way for the miniaturization of airborne chronometers, a path that has continued into the world of wristwatches, leading neatly to today’s nautical collections. 2024 replica Breitling SuperOcean Watches

Whether Marine Torpilleur succeeds or not is for everyone to judge. replica Richard Mille RM 67-02 Extra Flat
