In watchmaking, progress is achieved through the fusion of the future and the past.  The new FREAK X GOLD ENAMEL embodies Ulysse Nardin’s mastery of this space, pairing the revolutionary mechanisms of the Freak superwatch with the classic finery of a rare métier d’art.

The Freak X, the little cousin of its “Freak antecedents,” sizing is tighter – 43mm instead of 45mm – but it is easier to read and operate. It has a crown for time correction, which breaks with one of the most iconic aspects of the crown-less Freak Vision or Freak Out models, which correct time by the bezel. The “baguette” movement is still a carousel, turning once on itself every hour to indicate the time. It is simpler, bolder, and has fewer wheels. It has no dial and no hands – the central bridge acts as a minute hand and one of the wheels indicates the hours. The case is rounded with curved lines.  Inside and clearly visible beats one of the Freak Vision’s most outstanding innovations: a super-light balance wheel in silicium, extra-wide, with nickel flyweights and stabilizing micro-blades. The movement itself, the UN-230, is a fusion of the manufacture calibers UN-118 and Freak Vision UN-250.

The Freak X is available in titanium, rose gold, black DLC or in Carbonium. It is very competitively priced, demonstrating the brand’s commitment to expanding and enriching its collections by pushing watchmaking Xpertise to the X degree. To the intrepid Ulysses of the modern world, it is a clarion call to adventure.
