In 2021, Ulysse Nardin celebrated its 175th anniversary. To commemorate this momentous event, the company offered fans of exploration a vertical odyssey, from the ocean depths to the upper atmosphere - the ‘UFO Blue’ table clock. Made in a limited edition of 75 pieces, it was already sold out when it was released in April 2021.
Ulysse Nardin described this incredible table clock as 'a wacky high-flying clockmaker’s object, a work of art, a piece of design and architecture, a toy, quite simply: the UFO, a table clock ready to welcome you on board for a new entertaining odyssey'. The present clock gives buyers the golden opportunity to acquire No. 1 of the original edition of this extraordinary haute horology art object.
Weighing 7.2 kg, the ‘UFO’ has three independently adjustable dials for displaying three time zones. The movement has a power system of six spring barrels in stacked pairs providing a 1-year power reserve, large (49 mm.) visible compensation balance and deadbeat seconds. The spherical aluminum base of the clock on which the blown glass dome is secured by a bayonet system, is made blue by a special anodizing surface treatment. The three connecting cylinders and the three lower ties of the movement have also been coloured blue. The power reserve disk, the decorative insert with the Ulysse Nardin emblem - the anchor - are also coloured blue.
