Nearly 25 years ago, Ulysse Nardin transformed haute horlogerie with the groundbreaking Freak. Launched in 2001, this radical watch broke all conventions—no dial, no hands, no crown—offering a pure expression of mechanical mastery. It also introduced silicon to watchmaking, a material now fundamental to precision and performance in luxury timepieces. The Freak became an icon, admired by collectors and celebrated for its rule-breaking design.
Following the success of the Freak ONE at Watches and Wonders Geneva 2023 and the release of the bold Freak ONE OPS, Ulysse Nardin now proudly unveils the Freak ONE Navy Blue—a stunning addition to the collection that honours both the brand’s maritime heritage and its pioneering role in contemporary watchmaking

The Freak ONE Navy Blue: A Masterpiece of Innovation
Housed in a 44mm titanium case with a satin-polished black DLC finish and a Carbonium® bezel, the Freak ONE Navy Blue continues to defy convention. It has no dial or hands; instead, the movement itself acts as the minute hand, with hours displayed on a rotating blue disc. Powered by the UN-240 Manufacture movement, its flying carousel and oversized silicon oscillator create a dramatic visual display, while the use of DiamonSil® ensures durability.
The Freak ONE Navy Blue features the highly efficient Grinder® automatic winding system, delivering up to 90 hours of power reserve. It is finished with eco-conscious rubber straps, made from 30% recycled production waste, underscoring Ulysse Nardin’s commitment to sustainability


Unconventional by Design
In true Freak fashion, the Navy Blue has no traditional hands or dial. Instead, the movement itself tells the time, with luminous indicators that glow blue in low light. The Carbonium® bezel, made from aerospace-grade carbon fibre, adds strength and a unique finish to each piece.
Discover the Future of Watchmaking The Freak ONE Navy Blue embodies Ulysse Nardin’s spirit of innovation and reinvention, pushing the boundaries of modern horology. This is not just a watch; it’s a bold statement in the world of Swiss watchmaking.
