We owe the concept of the Freak to the congenial Ludwig
Oechslin, who developed it for Ulysse Nardin back in 2001. Its
basic principle is a carousel-tourbillon mounted on a baguette
movement which transforms its rotation into a mechanism that
displays the time.

ship’s hull. For the first time, it is also equipped with the new
and highly efficient Grinder Automatic Winding System and the
Ulysse Nardin Anchor constant force escapement, made entirely
in silicon and featuring a circular frame with a pallet fork
at its centre that pivots without friction
