This watch commemorates the clipper's record-breaking 89-day voyage from New York to San Francisco in 1851. It was an extraordinary achievement compared to the typical journey time of over 200 days for other ships on the same route. The timepiece stands as a testament to Ulysse Nardin's renowned craftsmanship in enamel work, while also celebrating a significant milestone in maritime navigation history. The present lot is in well-preserved condition and is offered with its original presentation box, limited edition certificate, and COSC chronometer certificate. ***Please note that wristbands made of material of endangered or otherwise protected species (i.e. alligator and crocodile) are not sold with the watches and are for display purposes only.
