Finally, I can cross this one off the wishlist.
For a few years I have kept an open eye towards Blue Surf postings. This one came along when everything was aligned to jump. The piece itself was recently serviced, complete, and well priced. Also included the awesome UN bracelet, something we don't focus much on here.
A review will be forthcoming, after I have had time to properly develop my thoughts. I had never previously held this watch. My first comment would be that the dial is more blue than many photos show it. It does get darker in certain light, but the actual color is awesome. A few pix in the meantime...

Once again, we are ... Surfing on the same wave.
I always admired this one. BRAVO, my friend. I envy you. Best, Nicolas
Thank you Nicolas.
I do recall you fancy this one. I have owned a few Divers over the years. This Blue Surf seems to be a very complete execution by UN. I believe it will make for a wonderful, no nonsense daily wearer. More to come.
Thanks a lot for the pics Michael
But this one is no go for me. I always found its dial a bit too much for my taste. I love its colours but I'm less seduced by the waves. Thanks for the nice pics! Fx
My pleasure.
I have always been a fan of the Diver series, and still enjoy the original dimpled dials. But these waves work well for me, and add an interesting depth to the dial. What really seduces me on this particular dial are the shape of the hour markers, which U...
Brilliant piece Michael!
You know I'm a huge fan of this piece, as the owner of #26 for over 6 years, I can attest to it's amazing wearability...on either the rubber strap or steel bracelet. I have had it on the rubber/Ti strap for almost a year now, thinking it's time to switch ...
Thanks Tim. I have always enjoyed photos of yours
And know how much you love the watch. Happy to join the club. Almost hard to believe it has been out for so long, and that I waited so long to find one.
One of my all time favorites. Congrats, Michael
I completely agree with your comments on the depth and color of the dial. The waves and style of this one are executed nicely. The blue lume is a nice touch as well. Definitely one of the great UNs. -Chris
I am thoroughly impressed.
Of course it has only been a day, but this is a super piece. Ulysse Nardin really makes a terrific product, and these Divers sure represent a great value in today's watch world.
Dear Michael to properly congratulate you
here is best Surf band in the World with appropriately titled song ;) Best Damjan
Congrats MC
Superb piece, looking forward to a review. Perhaps taking the UN on an adventure....Volume 2 :-)
Perhaps...
It is a robust piece and certainly suitable to a few MichaelC adventures! Enjoy your weekend, Njoy!
"Makin' our lists . . .
. . . and checking 'em twice." :-) We know the feeling well, Michael. There's no greater satisfaction in this hobby than scoring a long-desired watch. Congratulations! Best, Art
I have always watched for it.
And I have come close before. But knowing it was a fairly large "LE", I am glad I waited for everything to align properly to get it. For various reasons, the previous ones I almost jumped on were never quite right. Thanks for the warm wishes Art :-)
Congrats on your catch!
A fine piece of seafood for the soul. Always feels better when you plan and anticipate an acquisition for a long time.
Thank you, and agreed.
I'm glad I was patient on this one. I have not taken it off since I acquired it... very enjoyable on the wrist.
Congrats Michael!
I remember you mentioning your liked this model! It looks really great on the bracelet and look forward tonseeing your review! Enjoy,Andrew
Thanks Andrew.
I have always adored the dial layout of the Diver series. I have worn it about every day since acquiring it, a good sign!
