U-N Acqua Marine Perpetual -- a Census please...
I know at least a half-dozen of us have one of these watches ... out of a total population of 500, how many can we muster?
Blue enamel changes colors around other blue enamel items.
They seem to speak to one another on some sort of color wavelength.

First photo, Christmas gift to myself (with wife's agreement):
If you have one, I'd like to see it, sparkling in the sun or water (I confess I have not gone diving with mine).
Back & inside. It came with the bracelet and blue rubber/metal strap(s) but I liked this red strap so much I moved it over several years ago and haven't gone back.

I think I’ve been there, is it Romania?
Or somewhere on the Danube? (Too many Viking River Cruises, not enough brain cells)
Parliament in Budapest, I assume ...
Have been in the news lately rather often ...

I knew a guy who did serious scuba diving with his. Mine has only taken the plunge in some pools in Vegas. It's one of the coolest blue divers. It's one of the most beautiful blue watches.
I love the way the calendar is displayed and how it functions! I told our mutual ex AD store owner friend (who has one) that there's a debate on the dial being enamel (vs lacquer). He said it's enamel but would call UN to get to the bottom of that. They told him the bezel is lacquer and the dial is enamel. Every time I've sold a UN from this era I've regretted it and then had to hunt down a replacement. I will NOT sell mine....ever! One of the best
watchmakers I've ever known also has one and feels the same about his.
Do black Acqua Perpetuals count, too?
This was an edition of 99. Mine is currently at service with UN, hope to get it back in June.

I say it counts!
A more discreet beauty, not so flashy as the blue.
Thanks for joining in Marcus.
