Built mine a year ago and put it on a flat link straightaway!!
Also added a DON bezel and a transparent caseback.
Purists will cringe but I love it

Got this nice box a few days ago as a birthday gift from my wife :joyous:

Arrived yesterday, thought one of the recently purchased webbing straps would suit...........
Watched a good YouTube video on how to trim the strap.

Picked this beauty up last night, bracelet needs to be altered to suit, I’m back in London next week so thought about going to the Blancpain boutique, not sure they will oblige or not
Also have a sailcloth incoming to give options

Not the one from SC, some other fine tasted person got that.

Finally popped my GS cherry.
I’ve got to say I’m blown away by the hands, dial and case finishing.
The thickness on paper is very misleading, wears really well.
Now I need to go and order some straps.

Shopping trip to Bicester Village for the wife’s birthday. Dangerous place as this seems to have come home with me.

It’s the maxi Marine diver model # 263-90. Titanium case and clasp, ceramic strap inserts and rubberised bezel inserts.
Since UN was sold by the Kerring group they are apparently recalling stock to relaunch in the UK. This meant the dealer was willing to knock a lot off the price as they won’t be stocking them in a month or two. Worked out at nearly 40% off rrp albeit most of that was already applied.
My feeling is that UN while they can be challenging design wise have some stunning watches in their line up and are at the forefront of technology.
Edited to add: my other UN has increased in value by about 60% in my 2 years of ownership so I’m pretty happy about that although again I got it at a superb price.

Enjoying it very much so far.
The blue is really stunning and I am also surprised how thin it is. I think it is a good value buy, too considering it is an ISO compliant dive watch from a great brand.

For myself, two pieces a Smiths Commando PRS-47 with acrylic crystal and a Festina Extra 1948 reissue F20248/2.....both excellent watches, especially the Festina for the price point after picking one up new at 55% off the RRP.

Just collected from WoS, Westfield, Stratford. Very nice experience, very attentive staff & a free pouch & a Montblanc pen! Loving my first Tudor!
Continuing the tudor theme, this morning I picked up a black bay ceramic from the tudor boutique in Westfield Shepherd’s Bush.
I’m very pleased with it. Looks even better in person. The sales person said she hadn’t seen one since last summer.

Considering how some recent threads with Rolex in have gone, this might tip some over the edge, but here goes...
I've just traded my blue Pelagos in against this and it's my first Rolex but hopefully I haven't bought a lemon!

It's a 'Y' serial so 2002 with punched guarantee dated Feb 2003, both hang tags and a Rolex service receipt from Dec 2021.
I picked up the box and booklets etc. separately and all seem kosher to me - please chip in if you think not.
I'm missing (I think) the wallet with the tool and dive tables, plus the anchor, what constitutes a 'full set' seems open to opinion..?
I'm guessing it's had service replacement parts and certainly has an 'S' inside the clasp, but so what, the intention is to wear it, although I haven't taken the service stickers off yet. :)
Along with my recently acquired Speedy sapphire sandwich and a couple of remaining beaters, that may be me done for a while.
I might post an SOTC with a list of what has come and gone since I joined all those years ago, and bore everyone to death for 10 minutes. :drunk:
