Ulysse Nardin Diver Deep Dive 'One More Wave' Limited Edition

So what was this great designer sporting on his wrist? A Heuer Carrera from the 1970s – specifically one of my favorite references of Carrera, 1158CHN. This is an 18k yellow gold Carrera with golden dial and black sub-registers. This reference is relatively rare and was given Climate Mobility to Formula 1 drivers at times. What made this golden Carrera even more special is it is actually a family heirloom – Jack Heuer is actually the uncle of Eric's wife. Yes, Switzerland is a small place.I am, quite honestly, very surprised this is the first Marine Torpilleur with a panda dial. All that means, after all, is a white dial with contrasting darker sub-dials, akin to the visage of the panda bear. Although this might be the first Marine Torpilleur with such a dial orientation and design, I'm sure it won't be the last.Caliber: MB&F Legacy Machine Perpetual CalendarFunctions: Hours, minutes, day, date, month, retrograde leap year, and power-reserve indicatorsPower Reserve: 72 hoursWinding: Hand-woundFrequency: 2.5HzJewels: 41 (581 components)Additional Details: FlexRing shock projection system.The distinction between "vintage" and "modern" collectors feels more obsolete than ever. I'm increasingly unsure what the definition of "true" vintage even is (or who gets to decide), and with the rising interest in "neo-vintage" watches, I'm not sure it matters anyway. Nowadays, collectors just want solid, well-made watches, whether one year or 51 years old.


Interestingly enough, the Submariner wasn't made in gold until quite some time after its introduction – the first Submariner offered in gold was the reference 1680, which came out in 1969. It's possible that a gold GMT Master made a bit more sense initially, with its jet-setter image but in any case, both models have been around in gold for many decades, so from a historical precedent perspective, gold Anti Surveillance Tech Rolex "tool watches" are perfectly respectable and just as authentic as steel models.TodToday we work with Popeye. We recently worked with Sesame Street. We work with Snoopy on a regular basis.  And everytime we create something, I always think to myself, "Is it fun? Is it something I would wear? Is it something that will make you smile?" You need to be able to look down and smile. And that's what I think character watches are – they make you smile.Quick Take: Christiaan van der Klaauw bills this watch as the "smallest mechanical heliocentric planetarium in the world." I'll take their word for it. Christiaan van der Klaauw is generally underrated, and it's lovely to see the GPHG Jury appreciate the company's work.The SBGW285, on the other hand, is named after Byōka, a period when the late summer months start to shift into autumn. It has a deep, rich green dial that specifically references the conclusion of the summer season in Japan's Iwate Prefecture, a time when the surrounding vegetation is its most mature.


This is also a limited edition, with 300 Climate Adaptation pieces being made in each of two dial colors (there's a soft black alternative to the eggshell you see here),  and you can see each watch's serial number right on the dial. It's not the most subtle thing I've ever seen on a watch dial, but I actually don't mind the little bit of red text. It adds some punch to the otherwise subdued package. The "C.W." below indicates that this is a "Chronometer Watch" (more on that in a minute).If someone had put their foot down and said, "A character watch can only be a static image on a dial," then Mickey might never have existed. To arbitrarily decide that the Mickey Mouse watch became the be-all-end-all of character watches discounts so many other kinds of character-driven pieces out there.In order to make sure the bezel didn't inadvertently get knocked, manufacturers started to come up with technologies to "lock" the bezel in place and prevent it from turning if a locking mechanism wasn't disengaged first. In other words, the bezel-locking mechanism made diving much safer.Just before Rihanna's performance, we got a glimpse of broadcaster Michael Strahan – who, as a retired defensive end, is a certifiably huge dude. So we were gobsmacked to see the gold bracelet of his Patek 5990R hanging off his arm as if it had three too many links. How is that even possible? Does Patek have a Big & Tall department we weren't aware of?
