The Ulysse Nardin Automatic Calibre 1633 exemplifies the brand’s mid-20th-century watchmaking prowess. Its combination of reliable movement and classic design makes it a noteworthy piece for collectors and enthusiasts alike.

This Ulysee Nardin is an absolute gem of a watch, a stunning classic manufactured in the 60’s. What’s more and quite unbelievable this watch runs as well as some brand-new watches! Recently serviced its +2 seconds per day! (Accuracy many brands could only dream of).

35mm stainless steel case makes this a lovely size. It has a silvered dial that in all honesty does have one particularly large mark to it (in between the 6 and 7). We have chosen to leave it as it is after all this watch is over 60 years old and our view is that the dial should be left well alone. Silvered teardrop style hands and bullet shaped indices.

We can’t be sure if the crown the is original to the watch however this should not detract from this piece as the movement, dial, hands and parts all appear to be correct and original.

The strap of course is later and generic in blue leather (we think this works well with the watch and have just added it) although it does have a Ulysee Nardin signed steel buckle, and we include a black leather Ulysee Nardin signed strap too (worn).

Automatic movement this watch runs at around +2 seconds per day with a healthy amplitude of over 220.

Serial number starts 69 and dated the watch to the 60’s. Due to age, we would not consider waterproof but provide a 12-month mechanical guarantee.

Condition wise, shows some minor marks and scratches as you would expect. Left alone by us we have chosen not to polish. Other than the mark to the dial anything else is minor or insignificant.

Our View – An exceptionally accurate vintage timepiece that has its own unique feel.
