ULYSSES AUTOMATIC LIMITED EDITION
By scanning the solar poles, the spacecraft revealed hidden solar dynamics that had never been observed. The ULYSSES Automatic Limited Edition honors that remarkable journey. Featuring a skeletonized dial that reveals the movement beneath, the watch reflects the mission’s spirit of discovery — uncovering what once lay hidden.
THE ULYSSES
For nearly two decades, the Ulysses spacecraft studied the Sun from a perspective never explored before. Traveling above and below the solar poles, it revealed the hidden forces shaping our star and forever changed the way we understand the solar system.
THE MISSION
On June 30, 2009, the final signal from the Ulysses spacecraft faded into silence. But the mission had already achieved something remarkable.
During its lifetime, Ulysses completed three historic fast latitude scans of the Sun, uncovering previously unseen solar dynamics and expanding humanity’s knowledge of our closest star.
Its discoveries reshaped solar science — and its legacy continues to inspire exploration today.
THE REVEAL
Inspired by that spirit of discovery, the ULYSSES Automatic Limited Edition features a skeletonized dial that reveals the movement beneath.
Just as the spacecraft exposed the hidden workings of the Sun, the open-worked dial unveils the intricate mechanics that power the watch.
Turn the timepiece over and the customized exhibition caseback commemorates the mission’s three historic solar scans — a tribute to one of the most important solar exploration missions in history.
