Anniversary 160
Let me ask you a question though, Dan. If you could have purchased the same watch for a couple of thousand less, by foregoing the barometer and fancy boxes, would you? I've wondered a bit about that myself. I have to say that I love the packaging. It was really something to get all this extra stuff, so to speak. But, did I really need a barometer and second watch box? I can't help but think it must have added a significant expense to couch the 160 in all this glitter.
I wore my 160 yesterday and got a couple of unsolicited and favorable comments. That's always a sign I'm wearing something special when other people, even those not familiar with high end watches, feel moved to comment.

Hi Dan, i own the Anniversary 160 in rose gold. Mine also came with the barometer, in what must be some kind of record for over-the-top packaging. Not that I'm complaining! Congratulations on your Marine 160, a terrific piece. best, bill
Hi Bill..
Your analysis is spot on regarding the extraordinary amount of grace, detail, and design U.N. has ensconced the 160 with. Of all the timepieces I have ever purchased over the years, this pieces box set is by far and wide the most exceptionally crafted one...
