For SIHH 2017 Ulysse Nardin continues the daring know-how and innovative path forged by visionary entrepreneur Rolf W. Schnyder and his watchmaking genius Ludwig Oechslin. Oeschslin was the driving force behind Astrolabium Galileo Galilei in 1985, the Planetarium Nicolaus Copernicus 1988, the Tellurium Johannes Kepler 1992 or the Perpetual…
Live from SIHH 2017, where Ulysse Nardin is exposing for the first time, we’ve just been introduced to what could basically be one of the (if not the) cleverest Regatta watches ever. While most of the regatta watches are basically reversed chronographs (which make a count-down instead of timing an event), this watch simply does both, in the most practical possible way. How? By having a bidirectional second hand that starts counterclockwise during the count-down and once it hits zero, changes direction automatically to become a chronograph. It is impressively ingenious and here is how the Ulysse Nardin Regatta works (and take a look at the following video, it will makes things clear).
Based on the research and development propelled by Ulysse Nardin’s InnoVision technologies, the InnoVision2 making its debut at SIHH 2017 is outfitted with yet another set of ten innovations. And here they are.

SIHH 2017 – Ulysse Nardin is about to make some noise for its first SIHH showing off, with cutting-edge technology. The watch you’re about to see is nothing like you’ve seen before. Every part of this watch boasts an innovation, whether we talk about the escapement, the display, the winding system or even the hands. Meet InnoVision 2, a concept watch featuring avant-garde innovations that may make us rethink the future of mechanical watchmaking.

Marking the first time Ulysse Nardin exhibits at the SIHH in Geneva instead of in its nautically inspired exhibition space at Baselworld, the innovative brand celebrates with the unveiling of the unusual InnoVision 2 timepiece chocked with 10 innovations, already laying claim to several patents, and with half a dozen more patents pending.
It is now a tradition for watchmakers to observe Chinese New Year by creating beautiful, decorative timepieces. The rooster is the eleventh sign of the 12-year zodiac cycle. According to Chinese astrology, the rooster is loyal and punctual – a great fit for a timepiece! Check out these pieces by Jaquet Droz, Ulysse Nardin, Vacheron Constantin, Piaget, Chopard, and Panerai.
Ulysse Nardin released a routine press announcement for two watches – a new Classico and a new Hourstriker Pin-up at the cusp of the end of 2016. Also part of the release is the rather exciting announcement of a new 5 year warranty for UN watches. …
Few competitions are as demanding as the America’s Cup. While only the best sailors in the world even dare to participate, even they are pushed to the limits. You can imagine the strain that this puts on the watches that they are wearing. Staying true to its nautical legacy Ulysse Nardin teamed up once again with Artemis Racing for the upcoming edition of the America’s Cup.
Ulysse Nardin is the watch world’s pioneer in “new” technologies.
Though it might seem anachronistic that a 163-year-old company famed for its marine chronometers would be the one to start a revolution of this type in mechanical watchmaking, that is just what Ulysse Nardin did by leading the search for the perfect materials and advanced geometery to aid in cutting lubrication and improving watch efficiency.
Here we take a look back at the technologies leading up to the introduction of 2007’s InnoVision and why that particular concept watch was so notable.
