My original piece says hi from 1996...

Love your new model of one of my personal fav. UN families... the 1846 Marine Chronometer is to me where UN should focus more energy and seems to be going that way.
Enamel dials being another obsession of mine, your watch I'm very happy to see in the UN line up.

Cheers,
Tim

Have not worn this guy in a little while. Great Chronometre by Ulysse Nardin. ...

The enamel is special.

 
 By: MichaelC : December 15th, 2020-14:13
Wonderfully white!

Another nice one Michael

Thanks amigo. One day, I will do a comparo w/ the Glashutte.

 
 By: MichaelC : December 15th, 2020-14:17
Similar, sure, but different enough.

for sure. I like both!

That one is so cool. πŸ‘

Thanks Jocke. This one is worthy of your photo skills.

 
 By: MichaelC : December 15th, 2020-14:18
The dial would surely dance then

Agreed. A wonderful watch.

Thanks Nico. I know you can't love the date hole...

 
 By: MichaelC : December 15th, 2020-14:20
And it is very discreet, but still I would love the dial without any holes. Alas, it is perhaps the smallest date window I own on a watch, and with aging eyes I hardly see it!

Very nice πŸ‘

Whats the size of this watch?

UN lists it as 41mm but it feels smaller.

 
 By: MichaelC : December 15th, 2020-14:21
That would be to the widest point of the bezel, and the case tapers in to probably 38mm or so where it meets the wrist. Quite fetching in the real.

Very nice one

That is a lovely, lovely UN!

Classic UN here.

 
 By: MichaelC : December 15th, 2020-14:22
I so love this brand.

Beautiful timepiece

Thanks H75.

Good question, but I don't think so. They should make one for sure.

 
 By: MichaelC : December 15th, 2020-14:23
One of my very few criticisms of Ulysse Nardin... bring back a series of dials with Arabic numerals please.

+1! (nt)

Some new photos from this afternoon

 
 By: MichaelC : December 15th, 2020-14:25
Productivity has definitely been down today as the enamel frequently calls my attention! ...  

Whoa, nice photos.

You are forgiven.

Real Chronometer design

 
 By: Zebda : December 18th, 2020-03:59
The case design is based on the real Board chronometer as the design made for the first serie in 1996. The design was made by Raimondo Brenni and Rolf Schnyder for 150 anniversary of UN. I love it. Nice choice and model

Here is the inspiration.

 
 By: MichaelC : December 19th, 2020-07:18
This Ship's Chronometer is from 1939. Works great, but I still need to send it to Switzerland for a new seconds hand. ...  

Thank you Ed.

Looks so nice on your wrist πŸ‘

A handsome time piece

Thanks Tony. It has some drool on it today...

From looking at your food posts!! Mama Mia, the sauce looks like Ma's. We had a red sauce with Italian sausage tonight, fresh grated Pecorino Romano. No photos, unless you want to see my bloated tummy...

Thanks Tim. Your no-date is a real beauty.

I am set to wear mine today. I love it each time I do. I cannot get on board with UN's "no-lug" watches. I wish the brand would re-engage with some exciting new Marine pieces. How about some arabic numerals? New dials altogether are long overdue. Even the...
