Ulysse Nardin introduces the next Freak watch, the Ulysse Nardin Freak One OPS. The brand originally launched the Freak line in 2001, an unusual concept. The watches have “no dial, no hands and no crown”, which is the reason why they call it the Freak. Now, the newest Freak Operations has a design inspired by military exploits, with its khaki and black colors.
This Freak One OPS is almost a complete evolution of the Ulysse Nardin Freak One that was recently released this year. It still maintains its 44 millimeters black DLC-titanium case, with a thickness of 12 millimeters. However, this new model is executed with a carbonium bezel and a khaki green palette for the “dial”. Which makes it look like an army watch. Carbonium is a material comparable to titanium, also tough and light, and finds its origin in the aircraft industry.
The Ulysse Nardin Freak One OPS has a power reserve of 90 hours
To read the time, follow the one-hour orbital carousel as it also shows the minutes. The hours are displayed by a large pointer on a rotating disc. It has no crown, but you can set the time or wind it with the bezel. After unlocking it by pressing the rectangular button marked with ‘FREAK’ under the 6 o’clock position.
The automatic Ulysse Nardin caliber UN-240 drives the Ulysse Nardin Freak One OPS, and delivers a power reserve of 90 hours. The watch is secured with a khaki and black ballistic rubber strap with a folding buckle in black DLC titanium and black ceramic. And you will get an additional integrated two-tone khaki and black rubber strap as well.
