Very impressive and diverse collection!
While looking at your gems, I instantly noticed something that is missing in today’s horology:
Each house had their own identity, each had distinctive designs and personality, in contrary to the modern direction where most focus on blue dials, green dials and similar cases!
Also one can easily notice the harmony between the dial and case proportions, not to mention moment and complications. All different…!
A bygone era…
Thank you for showing me this beauties of yours.
Best,
Zsolt.
A hidden gem joined my collection.
Since late last year, I embarked on a new quest, which is to acquire some hidden gems from the early 2000’s, a period which in my opinion is the last time when horology really fired on all cylinders, creating some remarkable unique and functional referenc...
Now, that’s a very cool and interesting watch, Zsolt!
Many congratulations, Zsolt. I really like the legibility, and the interesting and useful set of complications. 42mm looks great on you, and with it being platinum you won’t forget it’s there! All the best, Jon
Thank you Jon!
It is substantial, but I love platinum and its weight… It might substitute my Rolex GMTII’s as travel companion…
I had the very same and loved it!
Huge congrats, mon ami. You are right, this is a super watch. And a PC you can set forward AND backward! Enjoy, Nicolas ...
Thank you!
I remember you posting it back in the day and I was secretly jealous )) That blue strap on yours, brings out the beautiful blue hands of the watch! The only dilemma I have is that on this one, there’s no reference to the water resistance, however the whit...
Beautiful UN🔥
I used to have a couple from around 2010-2012 but have let them go. Am I missing the leap year indicator? I don’t see one. Congratulations 👌
No leap year indicator, but it doesn’t bother me(yet)…
You should’ve kept them,. Thank you for the kind words!
Congratulations on a fine acquisition!
I couldn't agree more, by the way, as to the state of the mechanical watch industry in the early 2000s. Without consciously intending to, I have managed to accumulate a number of watches originating roughly from 2000-2010, and number quite a few of them a...

Thank you!
I like the useful complication of the perpetual calendar, with an unusual(at the time), approach and the worry free adjustment forward or backward. Ohh yes, UN designers definitely weren’t cheap with the platinum here ))
Congrats, big UN fan here….
From when they were making incredibly interesting watches in the Rolf Schnyder era.
Couldn’t sad it better myself!
They created some insane horological marvels. I wish they would return to this lineage, while I know that was an end of an era… Thank you , let’s keep our hopes up
These hands are incredible.
And the whole package (dial pattern and layout, case shape) is very well done. Great shots, thanks for sharing. Best, Emmanuel
Huge congratulations 🎉🎊🎈
A true horological heavyweight and I fully agree with you - from an era when the industry was really still firing on all cylinders 👏🏻👍🏻
Thank you!
Brand identity, depth, ergonomics, materials, reliability, all at play in that bygone era! I just can’t rationalize how a one trick pony modern independent can compete with this…?
