My favourites are...
Blue Phantom and Cruiser Phantom Blue. When I see one of these watches the first thought that crosses my mind is Revolution.
Thank you for reminding us about these beauties.

Ulysse Nardin Freak: A journey into the Family.
Since 2001 and the first Freak, to the Diavolo, in 2010, the least that we can say is that the Freak knew and saw many changes. In 2001, when the Freak comes, it is a big revolution in the watch world. First of all because we can consider it as the mother...
For some reasons they didn't seem so many!
First impressions: The 1 is the purest and the only one I can wear sadly... The 28800 has that lock that is ok but the writing on it disturbs me The diamonds versions are not for me really The blue phantom is amazing..... The diavolo is a dream, my ultima...
Well, that makes 16, and I didn't include Andrew's one.
I am also sure there were some other micro editions... That makes quite a lot, I think, in 13 years. Best, Nicolas
Because I can't afford my ultimate/ dream one ... Whereas ..
With a bit of effort I could mabe reach my favourite one.... Favourite amongst the ones I could(maybe) afford... Ideally money not being an obstacle I would get a smaller diavolo, but it's a nonsense argument as I tend to get over passionate about watches...
Epic! Thank you Nicolas.
Your order makes it easy to see the evolution of "The Mother of all Concept Watches" (TMOACW, and I agree with you). Gosh, so hard to choose. As with anything, it is difficult to beat the original. That seems to me will always be the "purest" of Freaks, s...
Well, to me, the 3 stars are the One, the Blue Phantom and the Diavolo.
Not very keen on the bezel of The Cruiser, but I would not complain getting one! :) Best, and thanks for your input, my friend. Nicolas
Excellent guide
Great to see the evolution of an icon. I have been tempted on occasion, but always found the aesthetics of the Freak hard to swallow. Everything seemed to be going against the grain. This has now changed for me with the introduction of the Cruiser. I espe...
Number Six
is my fav along with original version Great post my friend What a journey Thank you Damjan
Thanks for the trip down memory lane, Nicolas. With a large amount of funds...
I do not know which one I would get.
I didn't realize there have been so many...
So....do you know anyone freakish enough to collect all of them? :)
great and thorough report Nico, thanks a million for that
my favourite freak(s) are the BLUE PHANTOM and the Freak Cruiser Phantom marvels to behold and would truly love to own one of them

The first and the Diavolo...
That design has really withstood the test of time! I also like that the improvements were incremental and not too visually radical. The big change from a design cue perspective was probably from the Diavolo when they added the seconds. All the rest were s...
Yes, the first one, the Blue Phantom, and the Diavolo would be my choices, too.
Less mesmerized by the Cruiser, I must say. Thanks for your feedback, Echi. Nicolas
Great journey Nico
It was great to recap and to see the development over the years, as a timepiece it really is a unique and I am glad you can track the DNA through the new models. I consider myself a freak... but wouldn't mind getting another one :) Thanks Nico! Andrew
