When it was launched last year, the Marine Grand Deck Tourbillon – Ulysse Nardin’s 18-piece limited edition in white gold – received the rapt attention of the entire Haute Horlogerie industry. Today, the Marine Grand Deck Tourbillon emerges from Le Locle, Switzerland in a warm color scheme: a limited edition of 18 pieces crafted in 5N rose gold. In a proud nod to its maritime roots, the dial – finely crafted in pin oak, its unique marquetry is an incredibly lifelike depiction of a ship’s deck.

The slightly darker wood of this edition is the color of chocolate, enhancing the rose gold of the case and lugs.
The technical avant-garde is evidenced by the patented time mechanism, a revolutionary new take inspired by a yacht’s boom, ropes and winches working together to hoist the sails.
The jumping hour is visible in a double aperture under the maritime symbols at 12 o’clock, in white for excellent visibility. Quick time correction is enabled with the pusher at 2 o’clock.

The minutes are displayed in gold on a spinel arc across the center of the dial, with the golden boom drawn across to show exact time.
Employing the UN-630, a 60-second flying tourbillon with manual winding movement, the Marine Grand Deck Tourbillon has a 48-hour power reserve and is water resistant to 100 m.
