The new Diver X Skeleton One More Wave represents Ulysse Nardin's third collaboration with One More Wave, the veteran-founded non-profit providing surf therapy to wounded U.S. veterans. This isn't just another charitable limited edition—it's purpose-driven horology at its finest. Building on the world's first skeletonized dive watch platform, this One More Wave edition is limited to 50 pieces exclusively for the U.S. market.
A Partnership Born from Authenticity
This collaboration began authentically in 2018 when Ulysse Nardin Americas' President François-Xavier Hotier connected with the Navy SEALs community. The first watch was conceived in a Coronado bar surrounded by photos of fallen SEAL Team members—an environment where sacrifice and service shaped a partnership that transcends typical industry collaborations.
One More Wave addresses a sobering reality: approximately 17 U.S. veterans die by suicide daily. Through surf therapy, custom surfboards, and nationwide community support, the organization provides healing paths beyond traditional approaches for wounded and disabled veterans suffering from anxiety, depression, and PTSD.
Things to Know About the Watch
The Ulysse Nardin Diver X Skeleton 'One More Wave’ ref. 3723-170LE-2A-OMW/3A is equipped with a 44 mm case that combines black DLC titanium with a Carbonium bezel made from upcycled aerospace carbon fiber. Turquoise SuperLumiNova on the hands and grey luminous elements create striking visual connections to One More Wave's identity, while the organization's trident logo appears on both the ceramic strap element and sapphire case back. The grey rubber strap with black ceramic and titanium deployant buckle ensures comfort while prioritizing both performance and symbolic meaning.
The manufacture calibre UN-372 showcases Ulysse Nardin's pioneering silicon technology—balance wheel, hairspring, escapement wheel, and anchor all crafted in-house at SIGATEC with a 72-hour power reserve.
Despite its charitable mission, this remains uncompromisingly a Ulysse Nardin timepiece. The watch maintains 200 meters of water resistance while showcasing transparent architecture backed by over 34 years of skeletonization expertise.
