Designed by Dr. Ludwig Oechslin, the Freak is an extraordinary wristwatch featuring a carrousel tourbillon. Its movement not only regulates time but also serves as the minute indicator, while the hour is displayed by a prominent triangular-tipped indicator positioned below the escapement. Departing from the conventional crown mechanism, the time is set using the bezel, and the watch is wound by turning the case back. The Freak exemplifies Ulysse Nardin's daring approach to design and commitment to innovation.
