Ulysse Nardin: Diver Deep Dive
9 July 2018Robust, functional, technical and sporty… This the new Diver Deep Dive by Ulysse Nardin loaded with unprecedented technical specs.
A recognized pioneer of watchmaking innovation since 1846, the Manufacture’s early renown was built on the peerless precision and reliability of its marine chronometers.
Like its predecessor, the Diver Deep Dive is powered by the in-house caliber UN-320, which has a patented silicium lever and escape wheel configuration. The balance spring is also in silicium, a material Ulysse Nardin first introduced to Haute Horlogerie.
Along with 1 km water resistance “the world record diving depth is 701 meters” new technical standouts on this masterwork include a removable titanium guard on the crown at 2 o’clock and a helium release valve at 9 o’clock, for deep dives of prolonged periods of time or under saturation. The rubber strap is a first: it has an expandable element that adjusts to changes in wrist size during dives, caused by the compression of your neoprene diving suit. The robust, angular-shaped 47mm case is in titanium, with cut-edged horns. The large bezel has 12-notched teeth for easy manipulation, even with diving gloves.
15 hammerhead sharks adorn the dial; another is stamped on the caseback; a bright red one swims on the side of the crown guard; and another decorates the dial counter. Destined for fans of diver watches, the new Ulysse Nardin Diver Deep Dive is a limited edition of only 300 pieces and is available at CHF. 12.000
