Remember…

To name a few. Not just a different metal or dial color but real exciting stuff: Who else did anything as diverse in a relatively short period? Seems impossible. - The Trilogy Set: Astolabium, Tellurium, Copernicus. Probably the pinnacle to own. - Hourstr

These types of innovative pieces are what drew me to UN in the first place many years ago...

The Freak, Sonata, Hourstriker, Moonstruck, Stranger, Triple Jack, Imperial Blue.....could go on. The creative energy is still there I think...better perhaps a decade ago...but still some great stuff. I only wish for some smaller pieces and of course a di

I saw one this week...

In WG at a large dealer here in Hong Kong. Like so many other UN pieces (Hourstriker, Freak, Moonstruck) from UN, they have such originality. But you are right....what a big watch. 42mm or less would be great...but perhaps the movement needs the larger ca

I love UN, but...

Would also like to see the new movements in the watches...it's a bit perplexing that the 160 was never really used mainstream. After buying the original Freak (my trigger for getting into the brand), then an Hourstriker, and a dozen others ranging from a

Thanks, I hope you are right...

Over the years, I acquired some of the novelties, one of the first Freaks, an Hourstriker and the original perpetual gmt +- in platinum. I adore all these pieces. I like the marine line as well and have a number of these, but I would like to see something
