Happy 4th July y’all! Yeah so, we’re not quite as into the whole hotdogs and fireworks celebration of American independence as our trans-Atlantic cousins. The same can’t be said of Ulysse Nardin though, with their stars and stripes-themed limited edition of the Executive Tourbillon.

Fitted with the UN-171 with tourbillon it’s one hell of statement watch, made all the more so by the patriotic white, red and blue of the star-spangled banner. It even has a dedication to the US Navy, with whom the watchmaker apparently shares over a century of dedication to nautical precision and values”.

Limited to 50 examples (one for each state, of course) the The Ulysse Nardin Executive Tourbillon Stars and Stripes has a price tag of 46,000 good ol’ American dollars (just under £35,000). It’s substantial to be sure, but is any price too high for freedom? #makewatchesgreatagain
