Today's offering showcases this striking mens high-beat Ulysse Nardin chronometer. An uncommon model, it has a very distinctive and strong retro styled case and gorgeous Tiffany & Co. robin's egg blue dial.

Measuring 35mm in diameter without the crown, its diameter is in between that of the Rolex Date and Datejust models. And like a Rolex, it is powered by an automatic movement that has been officially certified as chronometer, the highest distinction given to a watch movement.

Besides being a certified chronometer, this special watch also features a high frequency 36,000 beats per hour balance system, twice the speed of many traditional watches and the fastest beat rate of the era, insuring exceptional accuracy.

Only a few specialist models of watches from a handful of brands beat at 36,000 per hour. As both a high frequency watch and an officially certified chronometer, this watch would have been among the very best when it came to accuracy at the time.

It has just finished a true expertly done restoration and has fully UN parts. It presents in gorgeous condition - a 9.8 out of 10.

Its case presents as gorgeous mint - the top has perfectly crisp facets and presents as perfect like new mint.

The dial has been meticulously custom refinished - the printing could pass as UN factory done to the naked eye.

As part of the restoration, the exceptional movement has been freshly overhauled by a Master Watchmaker. It is very clean and keeping time nearly on par with a new UN chronometer in our testing position.

For the finishing touch we have equipped it with a brand new calfskin leather strap making it ready for immediate enjoyment.

Included with the purchase is a one-year C.O.T. warranty on the movement and its function, a custom printed Connoisseur of Time Certificate of Authenticity, and a new timing certificate.

An over four decade old classic Ulysse Nardin chronometer that presents like new on the wrist!

Ulysse Nardin:
Ulysse Nardin is best known by many collectors for creating chronometers, extremely accurate time keeping instruments. Their marine chronometer used by ship's captains to plot and follow the correct course while at sea. By employing sextants and chronometers, a captain could track the changes in his course over time and determine the exact location of his ship, and Nardin's marine chronometers were among the most reliable and sought after.
