Since the spark of international trade in the late 19th century, Ulysse Nardin has been crafting marine chronometers, keeping captains and their valued cargo precisely on course. To date, Ulysse Nardin has been honored with more than 4,300 first prizes and 18 gold medals for innovation. And, although satellites have replaced the marine chronometer and the sextant as navigation instruments, Ulysse Nardin marine chronometers continue to be prized and sought after by enthusiasts and collectors alike.
