The impressive Ulysse Nardin watch, perfect if you are in formal dress, is from a watch brand that has presented the watch collecting world with several firsts. When they introduced the Freak, back in 2001 it was the first watch for sale with a silicon escapement. Now the Innovision Freak has ten new technologies. The first innovation is barrel on ball bearings where 96 balls requiring no lubrication guide the barrel. Silicium bearings fit into the brass base plate that does not require oil recesses. The silicium bridge is reinforced. Silicium is highly elastic and has a low friction coefficient. The Ulysse Nardin watch’s hairspring is also made from silicium.

The actual movement behaves as the hands with the watch wound by the bezel. This watch has a screw down case back featuring an exhibition window.

The Ulysse Nardin watch, the Innovision Freak is an exceptionally fine designer wrist watch. The Innovision Freak has no crown and no hands. The movement is via the mainspring.
