The Swiss watchmaker and the nonprofit organization initially announced their partnership in 2019, when they released the Diver Deep Dive OMW timepiece. The Diver Chronometer 44mm One More Wave is the result of their latest collaboration, and the timepiece was released on Veteran’s Day to honor the incredible community of wounded and disabled U.S veterans.
One More Wave is a certified nonprofit that U.S Navy SEAL Alex West founded. The San Diego-based organization has been devoted to helping disabled U.S. veterans since 2015. One More Wave owns and operates its surfboard factory, making custom surfboards for wounded and disabled veterans that fit their needs. One More Wave helps veterans benefit from the unique therapeutic qualities of surfing and community access to their four other chapters across the country. Their mission to help veterans through ocean therapy resonated strongly with Ulysse Nardin, which has long-standing ties to the sea.

François-Xavier Hotier, President of Ulysse Nardin Americas, shares, “We are thrilled to release our latest timepiece with One More Wave and couldn’t imagine a better partner to support U.S. veterans. We thought this would be the perfect timepiece to launch on Veteran’s Day to celebrate U.S. veterans and give back to their community. We hope to bring more awareness to One More Wave and will do whatever we can to support this inspiring organization.”
Alex West added, “We would not be the same organization we are today without the support from Ulysse Nardin.”
