Ulysse Nardin Diver Net Vendée Globe 1183-170LE-2A-VG/0B – Limited Edition of 300

Celebrate adventure, sustainability, and Swiss watchmaking precision with the Ulysse Nardin Diver Net Vendée Globe (Ref. 1183-170LE-2A-VG/0B). Created in honor of the legendary solo around-the-world yacht race, this limited-edition timepiece (300 pieces worldwide) merges cutting-edge materials with a bold, eco-conscious design.

Exceptional Sustainability Meets Swiss Innovation

The Diver Net Vendée Globe stands at the forefront of sustainable luxury. Its 44mm case combines a core of 95% recycled stainless steel with NyloFoil® – a composite made from recycled fishing nets (60%) and upcycled carbon fiber (40%) – used on the case flanks, lugs, and back. The ultra-light and robust bezel is crafted from CarbonFoil®, derived from carbon fiber offcuts used in sailboat production.

This innovative case design reflects Ulysse Nardin’s commitment to ocean preservation without compromising performance or aesthetics.

Purpose-Built Performance

Water-resistant to 300 meters (30 ATM), this diver’s watch is ready for serious underwater action. The sandblasted grey dial features a striking red and blue “X” motif, referencing the Vendée Globe’s signature colors. At 12 o’clock, a power reserve indicator ensures you’re always in control, while the small seconds subdial at 6 o’clock integrates a subtle date window. The number “10” is highlighted in red to mark the 10th edition of the race.

In-House Automatic Movement

Inside, the 1183-170LE-2A-VG/0B is powered by the in-house UN-118 automatic caliber, a COSC-certified chronometer movement boasting a 60-hour power reserve. Engineered with a high-tech DIAMonSIL escapement and silicon hairspring, the movement is exceptionally resistant to magnetism and shock. The semi-transparent NyloFoil caseback reveals the beating heart of this horological marvel, alongside an engraving of the Vendée Globe route.

Signature Strap with a Mission

The reference /0B comes equipped with a vivid red strap made from recycled fishing nets, secured by a Velcro-style closure for ergonomic comfort and adjustability. Every detail of this timepiece underscores Ulysse Nardin’s drive toward sustainable manufacturing and modern maritime aesthetics.

Limited Edition Prestige

Each of the 300 pieces is individually numbered, making this a rare collector’s piece for ocean lovers, sailing enthusiasts, and luxury watch aficionados alike.
