In 1983 Ulysse Nardin was acquired by businessman Rolf Schynder who, in conjunction with watchmaker Dr. Ludwig Oechslin, re-launched the brand as an innovative company on the leading edge of watch design.
The first example of this new innovative Ulysse Nardin came with the Astrolabium in 1985, which displays local and solar time the orbits of the orbits and eclipses of the Sun and Moon as well as the positions of several major stars. This watch entered the Guinness Book of Records in 1989 as the world's most complicated wristwatch.
Ulysse Nardin watches, development and manufacturing of novel complicated movements for mechanical watches since 1846.
