If you know what the phrase ‘Winter is coming’ means, then you’re going to love the new timepiece unveiled by Ulysse Nardin. The luxury watchmaker has teamed up with HBO to create the Night’s Watch, a timepiece inspired by the network’s cult-following series Game of Thrones.
If you know what the phrase 'Winter is coming' means, then you're going to love the new timepiece unveiled by Ulysse Nardin.
The Night’s Watch timepiece, from the brand’s Marine Diver collection, features a 45.8mm stainless steel case coated with matte black rubber. The sapphire crystal caseback is engraved with the Game of Thrones logo, while the strap features the phrases ‘The Night’s Watch’ and ‘I am the Sword in the Darkness’.
“We are thrilled to be teaming up with HBO to create a unique product inspired by one of their most popular dramas, and we are excited to unveil our collaboration,” said Nelson Lucero, vice president of sales and marketing for Ulysse Nardin. “We feel the watch truly captures the essence of precision and the fortitude of the Night’s Watch.” (Editor’s note: we love this collaboration so much that we’ll let slide the fact that this watch doesn’t quite capture the Night’s Watch dress code of all black.)
Only 25 pieces of this limited edition watch will be produced (although apparently several pieces have already been claimed by HBO executives, so the number available could be even lower). The Night’s Watch will be available just before Games of Thrones’ third season finale in June, and will retail for $10,500.
