Very nice indeed! Tried one of these on while on holidays at Easter and was very impressed with the build quality.

V. Nice. V vibrant. That's a limited edition one? Toss up for me between yours and mine. I went for the brown face/strap combo which sounds absolutely horrific but looks just right and understated. An Austrian colleague of mine bought abright red one (we bought both at the same time and got a good deal).

If the budget had been bottomless, id have bought both: yours for the sporty look and mine for the everyday/office.

Let me know if u ever want to get rid (and you haven't cut off too much of the strap) !

Thanks Grinning for the kind words. Congratulations on buying such a rare beast biggrin I have never seen anyone else wearing a UN! Yes it is a limited edition, it is the first of the limited editions and is called 'The Blue Max'. Yours sounds fantastic! The brown face looks beautiful and I think it wears very well as a dress watch too.

I have a spare strap so there are no worries about cutting the strap too much smile But as for selling it, thank you for the offer, you will be the first to hear if I ever let it go.


Chris
P.s. Could you post some photographs of yours?

Difficult to see the face dimpling and sharp colour with my bad camera...

Thanks Grinning. You are right, these are impossible to photograph biggrin So I decided to just buy one to admire it smile

Yours looks stunning too, I really like the brown faced Maxi. Good choice sir cool
