The first watch brand to release a timepiece with a case made entirely from recycled fishing nets (in 2020), Ulysse Nardin now takes its two-year-old concept watch to reality with a serial-production Diver Net watch. For this new watch, the strap is made using polyamide fishing nets that are recovered from the ocean by French brand Fil&Fab and then transformed into pellets for manufacturing. The black parts of the case are made from 60% recycled fishing net Nylo®, and 40% upcycled carbon fiber/ Carbonium® comprises the side parts and caseback. The bezel insert is made from carbonium that is taken from the excess waste in the manufacture of jet plane parts. The metal used for the inner case and bezel is made from 80% recycled steel. Just 200 pieces will be made.
