The tourbillon

Abraham-Louis Breguet patented the tourbillon in 1801. The escapement and balance turn in a small cage, usually once a minute, so the pull of gravity in each position is averaged out instead of always acting in one direction. Today it is as much a display of hand finishing as a matter of precision: the cage is visible through the dial.

III · The manufacture

Ulysse Nardin since 1846

Ulysse Nardin founded his workshop in Le Locle, Switzerland, in 1846. A medal at the London exhibition of 1862 recognised its work on chronometers. Rolf Schnyder acquired the company in 1983 and began a new chapter with watchmaker Ludwig Oechslin. Oechslin’s Astrolabium Galileo Galilei brought astronomical indications to the wrist in 1985. The 1996 perpetual calendar could be adjusted forwards and backwards through the crown. The original Freak in 2001 made its rotating movement the time display and introduced silicon components. The management buyout of Sowind from Kering restored independence in 2022. Ulysse Nardin remains a Sowind manufacture, with watchmaking in Le Locle and development in La Chaux-de-Fonds.

IV · Ownership

Wearing and caring

  1. 1

    An automatic watch winds itself while worn. Left off the wrist for a couple of days it stops: wind it with the crown, then set the time and the date.

  2. 2

    Water resistance up to 50 m means splashes and rain. Do not swim or shower with it.

  3. 3

    Have the movement serviced every few years by the brand's own service or an authorised watchmaker.
