Ulysse Nardin celebrates an evolution with the Diver
Chronograph Hammerhead Shark, featuring the self-winding manufacture
chronograph caliber UN-150 with silicium escapement and balance spring. A first
for the entire Diver collection, the introduction of this movement represents
another major step in Ulysse Nardin independence. A quintessential marine
instrument – now made even more powerful by the UN-150 – the Diver Chronograph
Hammerhead Shark is presented as a limited edition in both stainless steel (300
pieces) and 18-karat rose gold 5N (99 pieces).
Exceptionally nautical in style, both versions sport a deep
blue dial with a signature hammerhead shark motif. Due to the shape of their
expanded head, hammerhead sharks possess the sharpest sensory accuracy of all
the sharks. Thus, they are the natural rulers in ocean navigation, renowned for
their supreme navigational precision. It is no wonder the time-keeper bears
the name “Hammerhead Shark.”
The watch’s oversized case – 44 mm, 48-hour power reserve, screw-locked crown, pushers, solid lugs, and unidi-rectional turning bezel make it an essential watch for ocean travel and excursions. Rugged and reliable, it is the yachtsmen’s and diving enthusiast’s companion when stepping onboard. It offers supreme readability. The 30 minutes counter is located at 3 o’clock. At 6 o’clock, the date and 12-hour counter is displayed. And, at 9 o’clock rests the small seconds counter. Equally, it presents ultimate performance backup, water resistance to 300 meters, wrist stability, and ease of time tracking and measurement.
Complementing modern technology, the chronograph gives
seafaring adventurers the timekeeping necessities they need – right at their
fingertips.
A regal red accents the most notable elements on the timepiece’s face, including the luminous indexes, watch hands and even the lone shark. Its bezel stands out by its characteristic wave pattern, further emphasized by its ornamentation impressed into the rubber band. An azure rotor with the shark decoration is visible through the open, sapphire crystal case-back. Combined, every inch of detail creates a dramatic finishing effect.
