Description

Tourbillon - Carrousel, Manual Wind Movement with 7 Day Power Reserve, Unique Patented Dual Escapement, The actual movement acts as the hands, the watch is wound by the bezel. Screw down case back with exhibition window.

This is the OG Freak!  A manual-wind watch, features a 42.5mm 18k white gold case surrounding a blue dial with an 18k white gold deployant buckle. There’s a lot more literature here than I’m capable of replicating.  This comes with box and papers and is in all original condition with original escapement.  The watch runs very well.

 

I’m not good with the camera and didn’t bother wiping the dust off my watches but they are very honest, non-photoshopped pics.

 

The watch and I are located in Singapore and a local in person exchange is preferred.  For international sales, you may opt for shipping method at your own risk and cost.  


Trade interest :  Rolex 118206 glacier or wave dial, Patek 4947G or Patek 4936G.  All will involve some amount of cash top up to me.

 

Thanks for looking and be in good health.

Freak today and yesterday……
Author compares their Ulysse Nardin Freak with the latest model, noting a potential loss in movement depth from minimalist design. Older version perceived as having more presence. Images included.

Need help on FREAK
Need some advice for FREAK 1, does anyone know when is the right time to wind the movement, I never set it fully wound because I am afraid might damage the movement, as it seems so delicate. so sometimes every 2-3 days i just wind it few turns, is it okay if we wind it after the movement stop freque

Incoming Freak!
Interest in haute horlogerie sparked in early 2000s with the Freak watch. Designed by Carole Forrestier-Kasapi, it features unique elements like no crown, 7 day power reserve, silicon escape wheels. Emotionally attached to the original design, the author now seeks the next grail.

For the first time, I have tried on a Freak
I know, why not before? I have seen them but actually do not even recall handling one. In any event, on a recent trip to Las Vegas, I came across this wonderful Freak Phantom, a 99 piece LE launched in 2013. Impressions? It is awesome. So much depth to it. I was able to wind it and adjust the time.

Amazing watch! Arthur, this Freak is amazing, an Icon! So much more interesting than Rolex 118206 glacier or wave dial, Patek 4947G or Patek 4936G IMHO. Good luck with the sale but I would keep it. Actually I have a similar one and it is a keeper for sure smile.

HI, I do see where you're coming from but I've just lost so much interest. A boring Rolex appeals more to me these days.
smironov Mar 23, 2023
Sad to hear, but I am sure it is just temporarily.
In case the interest is gone why replacing icons with boring watches, just short them all for a year or two smile. BTW, what about PSM on your Avatar, do you still have it? Is it a keeper I hope or not?
smironov Mar 24, 2023
PSM Just noticed that you've sold PSM last summer. Good luck with your Freak finding a good new home!
ArthurSG Apr 27, 2023
Yes, I still have this. Needs a service. Interested?
