This collaboration reflects a shared pioneering spirit. For over 180 years, Ulysse Nardin has translated the sea into mechanical innovation, first through its marine chronometers, trusted by navies and explorers across the globe, and today through avant-garde watchmaking that continues to challenge convention. Alongside this technical mastery, the Manufacture has cultivated exceptional métiers d’art, with miniature painting practiced in-house for over 15 years as a demanding expression of craftsmanship. Rendao Liu, through his contemporary ink practice, transforms the ocean into a philosophical and visual language. On the dial, these three dimensions converge — precision, artistry and craftsmanship — bringing the ocean to life through the meticulous art of miniature painting.
