This Ulysse Nardin Watch Broke Watchmaking Rules | Watchfinder & Co.

Mechanical watchmaking is full of compromise. There’s only so much that can be done with wheels and springs in a space smaller than a matchbox, and that leads to some little quirks and eccentricities that are all part and parcel of owning one of these ticking little devices. Has Ulysse Nardin managed to conquer the trickiest quirk of all?

Crazy how such a time piece can illustrate how ingenuity can embody beauty by its simplicity...
Great video, like the video on the rolex double 9 or the one before this one...keep 'em coming !

[ontheotherhand]

Incredible these watchmakers are still making new mechanical innovations! Inspiring

[OmarAbouZied]

Superb video, as usual, but I would like to mention that Dr. Kurt Klaus' design incorporates the four-digit year and moonphase. Perhaps Dr. Ludwig Oechslin will resolve these functions' forwards vs. backwards dilemma with just another gear or two?

An Ochs und Junior review would be wonderful!

I don’t know how much the comments affect the next watch of choice for a video, but here are the two things I’d like to see most:

The ultimate dress watch:
ALS Saxonia Thin vs. VC Patrimony manual winding
vs. PP Calatrava

That's why I like my UN Perpetual Aqua in limited polished titanium edition :-)

[svidorashka]

You are really, really good! Such a pleasure, thank you!

@ 1:50 The screw damage is shocking for a watch of this caliber.

[smoothkaos]

Very cool! I didn't know this not to mention thus Nardin is gorgeous

[juliewalls]

I always like it when you quote a price.

[uonadtehrrocks]

Wait you have to send it back? Couldn't you just go 365 pushes, a pain but not that same as sending it back.

[Manta]

Please review Carl f. Bucherer's flyback.

Ulysse Nardin! Forget Patek, Vacheron, Ademar, A Lange... Ulysse Nardin makes most sexiest watches!

[malthus]

There's something of the Zeitwerk about this

[thomasmoll]

I’m going to guess - Ludwig Öchslin (?)

[blinkerfluid]

That "12" hour marker is hideous

[sebsebseb]

At this point, to me, Patek is the most overrated brand, Lange does it better, Breguet and UN bring more inovation, Patek still usese the same old recipe.

[himanishchadha]

Please do a bit on Junghans or Oris watches.

[jharris]

Let's be honest here...It's not exactly a good looking watch, is it?. It could have all the complications in the world and I'd still be happy to give the ugly bugger a complete miss.

[thorham]

It's a shame that such a well made watch is so damned ugly 8^(
