Ulysse Nardin
Ulysse Nardin was founded in Le Locle, in Schweiz, in 1846. Historically the company was best known most for their maritime chronometers, but today the company manufactures complicated mechanical watches and wrist watches. Ulysse Nardin was an experienced and accomplished watchmaker before he even set up his own company. He had studied the industry under his father, Leonard-Frederic Nardin. In 1983, Ulysse Nardin was bought by Rolf Schnyder, a businessman who in collaboration with watchmaker Ludwig Oechslin relaunched the brand Ulysse Nardin. Schnyder and Oechelin cherished the old brand and what it stood for, making it more modern and adding some new manufacturing techniques. The first example of the company's new and modern approach was the Astrolabium, launched in 1985. The watch was named after Galileo Galileis device. The watch displays the different positions of the sun, moon and of several stars, and in 1989 it was entered in the Guinnes Book of Records as the most advanced wristwatch in the world. In 1988, the company launched Planetarium, and in 1992, Tellurium Johannes Kepler, both named after famous historical astronomers. Together these three tmiepieces are called "The Trilogy of Time". In 1999, Ulysse Nardin presented their GMT± Perpetual watch with both the perpetual calender and the GMT± complication. GMT± complication means that you can set the time back and forth between different times with just one press of a button. This is particularly practical for travellers.
