I can contrast that with the amount of time it takes to reset the IWC perpetual - much longer, but I think that's because I got warned not to go crazy turning it, in case something goes awry, or you go too far, it's a $1000 repair... at least with the UN you can turn the calendar backwards rather than letting the watch run down and the days go by til it's correct. :-(

And this RG version with this very harmonious dial is tasteful and … timeless. A marvel. Many of us know how underrated UN is. I am waiting for the next „big release“ that … flashes me. Then I will probably pull the trigger. All the best and wear this gem...

Hi Marcus, I remember your great article up "a Perpetual Love Story" and all the other great write ups regarding UN watches. I bought my Marine Perpetual LTD in 2009 and I was absorbed by everything that was written about UN1s perpetual watches. You wrote...

That would be interesting. It would mean that UN went full circle. Bought rights from Lemania to make the UN 33. Then getting the same eBay he from Lemania. It sounds a little too complicated to me. BTW why don’t you keep your watches on wonders, then you...
Watch winders: No running, no wear
