Joining forces for the ocean
Ulysse Nardin is the Official Timing Partner and Time to Act Partner of The Ocean Race. Time is at the heart of this great race, not only when it comes to timing the competition and records, but also because it is now time to act responsibly.
Truly dedicated to ocean preservation, Ulysse Nardin has launched The Ocean Race Diver Watch, designed to be the first diver collection made with sustainable materials. This unique timepiece is the official watch of The Ocean Race. We are also committed to a program aimed at strong ecological changes by 2030. Ulysse Nardin is also sponsoring one of the race’s most eco-focused competitors: the 11th Hour Racing Team. It is time, more than ever, to keep the ocean blue.
VICTORY IS ALL ABOUT TIMING
Ulysse Nardin has strong ties to the maritime world since 1846. From our first marine chronometer inspired by exploration, to the nautical influences of our contemporary creations, we have always maintained a close relationship with the ocean.
So, it was only natural that we should become the official timekeeper of the world’s greatest maritime race. When it comes to timing their competitions, we will provide The Ocean Race with the highest standard of accuracy possible. So ready, on your marks, get set, go!

THE DIVER COLLECTION - GUARDING TIME AND THE OCEAN
THE RACE AGAINST POLLUTION
Another race is dear to our hearts. And the goal of this other competition is also to win. But the prize is our oceans. Ulysse Nardin is committed to being a strong Time to Act partner of The Ocean Race. In this race against time to save our oceans, we are pledging to deliver positive ecological results by 2030. The countdown to a better maritime environment has already started.
Ulysse Nardin and The Ocean Race have pledged to meet the guidelines outlined by the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDG). And as part of the United Nations SDG 14, we are committed to keeping track of the scientific research required to make a difference. Because more than ever, the clock is ticking, specific deadlines have been set to put into action these urgent measures. To keep these advances on track, the first date for positive results is 2030. This partnership with The Ocean Race is a natural extension of Ulysse Nardin’s core belief that far-reaching innovative solutions can help limit sea damage. Ulysse Nardin has long strived to be both a guardian of time and the ocean. Sustainable by nature, our company believes in upcycling and is continually moving towards more sourcing and circular use.
ULYSSE NARDIN & THE 11TH HOUR RACING TEAM
Ulysse Nardin is also sponsoring the 11th Hour Racing Team.
The team’s name is a powerful symbol: the 11th hour, the last hour on every clock, reminds us that time is running out to restore our planet’s health.
We have always created timepieces for great explorers like the sailors of this daring and purposeful team. Both of us share the same passion for the sea, ecological commitments and focus on state-of-the-art sustainable technology.
WIN BOTH ON AND OFF THE WATER
The champions of 11th Hour Racing Team want to win both on and off the water. With a home base in Newport, Rhode Island, sustainability is embedded in the heart of all team operations.
