Ulysse Nardin Marine Torpilleur Military Watch Hands-On

If the new for 2018 Ulysse Nardin Freak Vision is out of your price range, the other new Ulysse Nardin watch is the Marine Torpilleur Military limited edition At close to $8,000 USD, the Ulysse Nardin Marine Torpilleur Military isn't a budget vintage military-themed timepiece by any means, but at the same time it isn't trying to directly mimic "Bare bones" basic-ness that a lot of military-style watches are going for It begins with the fact that Ulysse Nardin has a legitimate history producing marine chronometers - highly accurate clocks used on board ships as official timekeepers and for navigational use prior to modern technological innovations, such as GPS.

The contemporary Ulysse Nardin Marine timepiece collection has dials which are based on the look and feel of many of these antique marine chronometer clocks The rear of the Marine Torpilleur Military watch eschews the typical sapphire crystal window caseback for an engraved scene that includes some torpilleur ships What makes the collection a bit confusing is that the Ulysse Nardin Marine Torpilleur isn't the same as the Marine Torpilleur Military limited edition.

The steel case is 44mm wide but only water-resistant to 50m I would prefer 100m for any watch that is ocean or marine themed - let alone military themed Price for each of the limited edition of 300 pieces Ulysse Nardin Marine Torpilleur Military watches is $7,900 USD.
