History

The company, Ulysse Nardin, was founded in the year of 1846 by Le Locle, who was born in 1823, in Switzerland. The company focused on the producing of marine chronometers. The chronometers were considered as the most accurate mechanical clocks at that time and even in today. Then the company began to produce wristwatches and pocket watches. These timepieces were accurate and nice. The company gained reputation soon after launching these accurate timepieces. From 1846 to 1975, the company gained more than 4, 300 Accuracy certificates of Swiss. Ulysse Nardin watches were then popular in almost all European countries.
