Luxury watchmaker Ulysse Nardin has added to their iconic Diver Collection of maritime timepieces. The new Maxi Marine Diver watch features a new dial design and a bracelet matching to the colors of the case.

While the dial Maxi Marine maintains some of the usual characteristics of the Diver family, including a large diving scale (done here in gold on the rotating bezel), it also features a new black wave pattern, luminous applied indexes, and the date 1846 (an homage to the year Ulysse Nardin was founded) imprinted in red on its dial. The Maxi Marine also features a power reserve at 12 o’clock, with the date and an oversized small second featured on sub-dials at 6 o’clock. The individually engraved 42.7mm-diameter 18K rose gold case houses a self-winding caliber UN-26, 11 ½’’, which can be glimpsed via the sapphire crystal caseback, beautifully exhibiting the 22K rose gold rotor of the movement.

An 18K rose gold bracelet with black ceramic elements completes the Maxi Marine Diver timepiece.

The Maxi Marine Diver is reference 266-33-8C/922. Photos courtesy Ulysse Nardin.
