Inspired by the chronometers used on ships produced by Ulysse Nardin during the 20th century, the Marine Chronometer is an incredible timepiece that aptly represents the maison's boundless creativity and unparalleled craftsmanship. The collection was first introduced in 1996 and the reference here, 1183-310-7M/40, carries the aesthetic charm of the - 96 version most eloquently.

This Ulysse Nardin watch comes with a distinctive 42mm case rendered in high-quality stainless steel and a dial in a white hue. With a power reserve indicator at 12 and seconds sub-dial and a date window at six, the dial entails a legible, vertical configuration that gives the overall watch an unmistakable look. The blue-hued handset and the signature Roman numerals further elevate the dial. Beating inside is the in-house calibre UN-118 that promises high precision and reliability, running at a frequency of 28,800bph with a power reserve of 60 hours. This automatic movement is visible through the sapphire crystal caseback and is adorned with fine finishes throughout.

At Second Movement, the pre-owned division of Ethos Watches, we adhere to a rigorous verification process where expert watchmakers carefully inspect every watch to certify its authenticity, ensuring it is not counterfeit. We also go to the maximum extent possible to ensure that the timepiece is not a stolen property and that all duties are paid. However, in the absence of any central database, a 100% verification is unlikely for any pre-owned entity in India. Nevertheless, we can still provide a provenance guarantee for watches purchased from Ethos.
