What do you think of Ulysse Nardin as a brand? Would you pick the marine diver over a Submariner or a Seamaster? Do you prefer exclusivity and rare watches or do you prefer the classic iconic watches? Let me know in the comments section!

Not only do I like the brand, the look of the different lines but I also enjoy the fact that you almost never see them out in the wild in the US. I see Rolex quite often by me so its nice to stand out from the crowd with my JLC's, IWC's UN and GS's. I have 2 Rolex watches but I pretty much never wear them, these days I find the brand a bit boring, everyone wants them and they are the only watch people seem to talk about /snooze...

💯 Ulysse Nardin is definitely a brand that stands out partly for their rarity, but also just how different their designs are too - businesswise they may not be doing to well for being bolder with their designs, but for us as watch lovers it's great to see a brand that's willing to make something that stands out. Thanks for watching! :)

I would never pay over retail on a Submariner, I'd rather buy Blancpain, Glashütte or Ulysse Nardin.

Completely agree, there's so much more value out there but more importantly just more interesting watches - there's so much more nuance, detail, finishing & details in something like a Fifty Fathoms, SeaQ or a Marine Diver

Can't believe that is exactly what i was going to write. Besides I find the Sub too small like I need glasses to read the time. I would throw the Cartier diver into the mix as well. All stunning pieces

I own the First gen 263-33 ; great nautical history lends itself to this marine chronometer...Solid, rugged yet beautiful...very different look from a Ro’Sub The titanium bits and strap feel are both luxurious and extremely comfy. Love the dial and furniture...

I love the first Gen, especially the relieved bezel and hopefully I can do a hands on review of one of those, as well as with the current gen. All the little details that Ulysse Nardin puts in like the titanium on the strap, the power reserve + small seconds, dial textures, it all makes for such a special and different look for a dive watch :D How long have you had yours for?

I’ve always loved Ulysse Nardin timepieces. This watch has one of the most elegantly utilized date window I’ve ever seen. It’s placement and size really adds to the design rather than taking away from it like with so many other watches’ date windows.
@ShahLusso

Without a doubt the placement within the running seconds at 6 adds some great symmetry to the dial, and while i'm not normally a fan of date magnifiers, this is one of the better executed ones and at least its a necessary one due to the modular setup of the movement pushing the date further down (*cough* Rolex..)

Loved the video. You had me in stitches at the beginning. I have a marine Chronometer and am contemplating this one. Actually, UN is in a different category than Omega or Rolex, designing watches with highly sophisticated movements which are also works of art in the hundreds of thousand dollars. I wish you would have reviewed the lime, as that's something important in a diver.

So happy you put out this video, always thought UN was super underrated and I have always been a fan of the Marine Diver. I personally would rather have this than a Rolex , Omega , or Breitling diver. Great job of highlighting the pros and cons of this watch.The next video ill be putting up is a review of the Freak Cruiser it was pretty insane. Haven't got the chance to get my hands on one of these yet would love to. As a game of thrones fan I really wanted their " Knights Watch " special edition.

Exactly my point! Despite its lack of availability at authorized dealers, the Rolex Submariner itself isn't actually a particularly rare watch, though some new buyers have that misconception. Hopefully this video helped showcase a watch that is genuinely less common and that (in my opinion, and not to the sub) has much more charm to it :) Thanks for watching :)

Funny, some guys don't like rolex, okay, since years you can't buy them regularly, true. But the other jump on this train as well. UN or per example a panerai diver (blue notte I think) is about 11000 euro. Wtf 😮I own two panerai older model buyed second hand about 4-5 teur and it's fine. If you take a look in the windows and you look down to your knees height... These modells cost 2-5 teur. It's crazy. Greetings from Germany

It's a watch that flies under a lot of people's radars, but the big advantage is that especially on the pre-owned market there are some really good deals to be found on this and other UNs, and without a doubt you'll be hard pressed to find someone else with the same watch. Let me know if you have any questions about it or need any help in your research :) Thanks for watching & subscribing!

Shah Lusso I’ve had it for about 3-4 years. It came with a stainless steel bracelet which is real comfortable. However, I replaced it with a dark blue alligator strap which makes it look real nice. It’s a real clean and classy looking watch. UN makes good watches, but some of the designs, I’m not yo much s fan off. Some of their watches appears to be to “busy looking” and many use Roman numerals which I’m not a fan of.

Great video my man. I have the UN marine 41mm and it is beautiful s o I can imagine the quality of this piece. It looks great too. The sapphire window on mine is so crystal clear it's amazing and the 2892 will do the job. Cost so much less to service and for parts of ever required. Much less headache. A full titanium bracelet would be the way to go though. I have an Oris titan with titanium bracelet and it's the most comfortable and most practical of all bracelets by a mile. Otherwise a great case.
