Pätkä vanhasta historiasta:
"When Ulysse Nardin was born in Le Locle on 22 January 1823, the region was already home to a wealth of watchmaking activities. Over more than two centuries, with the influx of Huguenot artisans who had fled France following Louis XIV’s revocation of the Edict of Nantes, the mountainous region of Jura had become a centre for watchmaking and metal working. Steeped in this rich heritage of craftsmanship and technology, the region's master watchmakers were responsible for many discoveries and innovations. In this context of burgeoning industrialization – the industrial revolution would get underway in the second half of the century – and intense inventiveness – the chronograph (1815-16) would have a significant impact on his career – the young Ulysse came into the world.
Starting out as an apprentice to his father Léonard-Frédéric, himself a watchmaker, Ulysse Nardin went to work with William DuBois, one of the greatest experts of his age in precision timepieces, notably marine chronometers and astronomical watches. The young apprentice began specializing in complicated watches, and quickly spotted the potential of a niche market as maritime transport grew. In 1846, at the tender age of 23, Ulysse Nardin founded the company that still bears his name today, in Le Locle."
