A New Shade of Disruption with Ulysse Nardin’s Freak ONE Navy Blue

Ulysse Nardin, the maverick watchmaker that redefined the boundaries of horology, is back with another masterpiece: the Freak ONE Navy Blue. This timepiece is not just a watch—it’s a statement, a testament to the brand’s relentless pursuit of innovation.

Since its inception in 2001, the Freak collection has been a canvas for Ulysse Nardin’s avant-garde vision. The original Freak, a radical departure from traditional watchmaking norms, showcased a dial-less, handless design driven by a revolutionary silicon escapement. The Freak ONE Navy Blue continues this legacy by pushing the envelope of horological design and engineering even further.

Clad in a deep indigo hue, the Freak ONE Navy Blue pays homage to Ulysse Nardin’s maritime heritage while exuding a contemporary, edgy aesthetic. The 44mm titanium case, finished with a satin-polished black DLC coating and a Carbonium® bezel, offers a striking contrast against the watch’s vibrant blue accents.

At the heart of this timepiece lies the extraordinary UN-240 caliber. This self-winding movement, with a substantial 90-hour power reserve, boasts a flying carousel tourbillon that serves as the minute hand. The hour hand, meanwhile, is ingeniously integrated into the barrel cover. The movement’s silicon components, including the balance wheel and escapement, ensure exceptional precision and durability. The Freak ONE Navy Blue is more than just a watch: It’s a wearable work of art, and a symbol of Ulysse Nardin’s unwavering commitment to pushing the boundaries of horological innovation.
