1930's ULYSSE NARDIN Mens Vintage Rectangular Dress Watch - Staybrite Stainless Steel
Distinctive Design - High Grade - 1 Year Warranty


From the fine Swiss firm Ulysse Nardin...

Ulysse Nardin is best known for creating chronometers, extremely accurate time keeping instruments often 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.

Today's auction features this cool Ulysse Nardin wristwatch from the 1930's. It's classic hinged lug case showcases a popular design for the era and the dial has toned to a great beige color. It's a watch that that has a very vintage look when its on the wrist.

The staybrite steel case is in excellent condition. The silver dial is a vintage restoration. And the handwound movement is running very true.

Our watchmaker has freshly cleaned and oiled the movement and installed a new mineral crystal. Included with the purchase is a one-year international warranty on the movement and its function, a custom printed Connoisseur of Time Certificate of Authenticity, and a new timing certificate.
