Ulysse Nardin Mono-Pusher 386-22

Ulysse Nardin Mono-Pusher 175th Ref: 386-22

The Ulysse Nardin watch reference 386-22 is part of a key period in the revival of the manufacture at the end of the 20th century. Produced in 1998, it was designed as a limited edition of only 175 pieces to celebrate the 175th anniversary of the house founded in 1846 in Le Locle. This model stands out for its mono-pusher chronograph architecture — a refined mechanism where all functions (start, stop, and reset) are controlled by a single button integrated into the crown — reminiscent of historical chronographs from the early 20th century. Equipped with the mechanical caliber UN-38, it illustrates the collaboration with renowned independent watchmakers of the time and marks Ulysse Nardin's return to high-end traditional complications. Its classic design, featuring a Breguet numeral dial, blued hands, and a pulsometric scale, pays homage to ancient medical and scientific instruments, while its gold case and engraved case back depicting the founder emphasize its commemorative character.
