I'd hate to be with you when you're on your own.
Stands a good chance of being the only one on here !
Possibly the only Swatch Oscillation, not that it gets worn anymore....

And possibly the only IWC 3521 in White, although this one has been through a few members hands

Though a fairly common PRS-5 Mk2 with swan-neck regulation, mine received 1550-hands from Mr Kemmner, making it very R.A.F.-esque as was my intention:
Cheers!

Haven't seen these on the forum:

I doubt if either of these Universals are around on here...
Cheers,

[QUOTE=troymcclure72;5235558]Haven't seen these on the forum:
I bought this with a blue dial around fifteen years ago. Definitely in the “What the heck was I thinking?” category. It died after a couple of years.
I've not seen so many of these Uni-Compax's around. One i enjoy wearing. 1956.
I’ve never seen another Lum-Tec M50 on the forum. Anyone else got one?

The first Grand Seiko, Jan 1962.
This is called the first Grand Seiko, but the first ones were engraved. They had issues with dials chipping and breaking though, so after losing money they decided to put a gold Grand Seiko on the dials.
So this is a second version of the first.
2005 Fortis B-42 Official Cosmonaut Chronograph - Limited Edition with the Lemania 5100 movement in a titanium case. Very comfortable to wear, highly legible (someone I know who has one rates it better than his Sinn EZM1) and full functionality including day/date makes it the perfect holiday / adventure watch. I use it to time yacht race starts and help with navigation, or remind me what day of the week it is, 3 days into a ski holiday...
In the 11-12 years since I started looking for one (I bought this 10 years ago from a forum member) I've seen only 10-12 for sale. The last one I know of on this forum belonged to Sweets, who sold it on years ago. I'm not aware of any other owners here, though I sometimes trade emails with another owner on Watchuseek.
Rolex 6424 in 36mm, I haven't seen another one on here.
Is there another one of these on the forum?

I have a Compur but not one as early as Neil's. Also I bought it for parts so it's not going to be a complete watch anytime soon. UGs with the same case reference (i.e. model number) can have wildly different dials and handsets so it's not that difficult to have a forum unique one.
I suppose as a starter I could post this Omega.
I'm pretty sure it's a prototype (no giggling at the back!) but I really need a trip to Bienne to bottom that out. Perhaps we could consider that as part of a GH Part Deux tour?
Far from rare but I don't think I've ever seen another JLC MCC2 on the forum:
I don`t know if this is the only one on here ? Don`t see many.....
We are getting the band back together!
Someone who lies about the little things will lie about the big things too.
I would hazard there are not too many of these about - though I recall a forum member’s son owns one.
I’ve seen a few of the SBDW005 variants around in the Friday threads but this the limited edition, ceramic version. Apparently even the applied logo is ceramic.

I'd be very surprised if there's one of these on the forum. BeBa Peseux 260.
Sorry to be difficult. That is probably unique on TZ-UK, but it is not an original Junghans wristwatch.
It is most likely a wrist conversion from a pocket watch executed in Ukraine (and there are many that get this treatment and are given military of flight-related features when converted).
The dial has the Helvetia swirl, for a start, posiitoned to balance a sub-second that should be at 6 on the pocket watch. It also has faux lume on the numerals (tried it under UV?) but none on the hands, is way too big for a wristwatch of this era, has the distinctive soldered on fancy lugs that the Ukrainians like to use and a Junghans signature that is rarely seen off a movement, unless on the dial of a pocket watch.
Sorry

There are only 1,000 of these world wide, hopefully I'm the only one here with one.
It's an observatory chronometer.
