Show UN pride
Hi everybody,
I have visited this forum for a long time, and have found very knowledgeable people, and very interesting UN timepieces, that I only could dream of. I was afraid to participate because of lack of knowledge. However, after seeing the thread below, I couldn't contain myself. I am the owner of a Dual Time 42 mm, which is everything, but not what it was described below. I really love the look and functionality of this watch. Thus, I introduce myself and may I propose to show UN pride by posting pictures of the beloved timepieces?
Best regards,
Falcon79
P.D. Not the best picture, but it look gorgeous in the metal!!!

Freak, Sonata, Perpetual Calendar, GMT, but what about the UN Roots?
We often speak about the extraordinary creations from U.N. To change a bit, I will just pot one picture, which represents a nice return to the roots, in a modern way, ala U.N: The Chronometer. 160 Anniversary: Welcome here, and don't worry, we are all lac...
Wonderful - and far too rarely shown - timepiece!!
You made a very good point tracing back UN's history from the great 160 Anniversary! Regards, Marcus
I'm not lucky enough to own...
...a UN, but would like to one day. I think the company has a high commitment to design integrity and innovation. Congrats on your great UN! Also, thanks for your participation in this community. I'm so impressed by the passion, warmth, and fairness of th...
I don't have a problem with...
...people trying to share feelings and experiences both positive and negative, but let's have a fair, open, and polite discussion about the issues at hand. That's what seems called for in our forums. Thanks for the nice words! Cheers, Daos
I hope to one day!
My dream UN would be the Sonata, but I suspect my first UN will be the Maxi Marine Diver, at some point. Cheers, Daos
I award you the Honorary UN Candidate certificate! ...
... for your character and style makes you a perfect wearer of a UN timepiece! But even without it, you are a most valued member of our family here! Thank you so much for your time, views, and kind efforts. The UN community can be proud of you! Best regar...
*blushing*
Thanks, Marcus! I always enjoy our discussions here on the UN forum! Cheers, Daos
As a full blooded UN enthusiast. Welcome to the fold.
In my opinion, UN is one of the if not the most innovative companies at this time. They have produced not only handsome watches but have the most user friendly GMT watch on the market, the most practical and handsome (in appearance and sound) alarm watche...
Classic UN MMD !
Love the watches UN makes- my next big purchase which will hopefully be towards the end of this year will be another UN! Thanks for starting this post, I don't see enough UN wrist shots here lately! S On a leather strap as I usually wear it... Or on the s...

My only UN
No one else does a "power reserve" like this. I do not always love their aesthetics, but I almost always admire UN's innovations and interesting solutions. Welcome to the Forum and congratulations on your beautiful UN. respo...

My beloved 150th Anniversary piece with a fired enamel dial.. This was acquired on a whim, runs beautifully for a 30 year old piece. My most worn sports watch, it has had many outings... Of all the bigger brands, I would concur with my friend Mitch, UN do...
It is always a great pleasure to see these beauties, Tim...
This enamel dial is a marvel. And this Blue Wave.... The Chronometer is another interesting piece. I didn't know you had it, too. Best, my friend. Nicolas
Hi Tim, your vintage 36,000 a/h watch loos really great! ....
... normally, I am not a fan of this era's designs, but this one is absolutely breathtaking! Would you mind writing some more details (dimensions), movement ( I assume it has the ETA 36,000 movement)? I'd like to show it in our gallery. Regards, Marcus
Here is the couple and the story
The last one belongs to my wife. While it was still under the warranty it broke. I sent it to UN for repair and promptly received the response from Ricardo stating that the repairs are not covered by the warranty. I called UN and Ricardo told me that the ...
Wonderful classics and story ....
... First of all, I really love the couple of classic chronographs. They represent the era when UN was famous for its finely finished wristwatch chronographs (without, though, ever building an own chronograph movement for wristwatches). They are both wond...
It doesn't amaze me, Mark.
I had the same experience with my Freak. Funny, I gave to my wife the U.N San Marco GMT, the same than the one you posted in your 3rd picture! I love a lot the grey black Chrono with the 2 counters. Nice collection. Best, Nicolas
My UN pieces
I've been collecting for many years and UN is one of my favorites. A few of the pieces from my collection:...
Fantastic collection DaveG!
A great many of UN's iconic pieces. Particularly enjoy seeing the Berlin Chrono split in steel. Cheers, Tim
Another view of the Berlin in Steel
A closer view...mother of pearl subdials. I do like it better on a strap though....
A few, my friend????
Can't get rid of looking at all of them! What a collection! Best, Nicolas
No need to wrap them, I will come over and pick them up myself, thanks! ...
... If I would have the permission to pick two of you UNs, it would be a very, very tough decision, if not an impossible one. All of your UNs are wonderful examples of this company's tradition and innovativeness, besides showing beauty and elegance. Well,...
My favorites
Thanks Marcus, I would agree with you on the Freak and the Hourstriker attraction, due to the unique nature of the pieces, scarcity and inherent innovative nature of the pieces, but let me give you my view on the pieces: * The platinum GMT Perpetual - To ...
I am glad you found your voice ...

... is the Planetarium: My favourite picture of it, since it tries to express the cosmological depth of what the watch stands for. Best regards, Marcus...
