I just came across this and I'm drooling--the 2018 thread

Oh Man! If that had s seconds hand, I'd be all over it.

My sentiments exactly when it was posted over on the random watch thread:

^^^ 9/10 from me.
The missing 1 is for the lack of running seconds. Otherwise I'd be sorely tempted.

That UN has potential but that particular iteration looks messy with all those hammerheads on the dial,CG,subdial....and the limited edition written on the metal part of the strap seems overdone....

I would agree. Seems to be all over the place.

Some watches are blocked by country by Ball if they are not offered in that country, or can't be sold there. That may be why you could not see them. This is a T watch and has many tubes to light up the bezel. Unfortunately, Ball conventional lume has never been that great so the numbers on the dial may fade out quickly, but the excess light from the bezel may keep it visible.

I once owned the "with date" version. It sat a little funny on my small wrist due to the long-ish and flat-ish lugs compared to other watches I have.

But when I saw these, I want one (or both)! I've always preferred no-date vs. with-date if there was a choice, and something about the fake aged lume tickles my fancy. If they could have used the "aged" (for lack of a better word) Hamilton font typeface it would be perfect!



Now black or brown dial? I can so see these with one of Iyonk's straps

.. it creates a 3d effect with the light. On the Breguet 10Hz, the 'Breguet 4422' plate actually looks like it's floating over the background.

Looks like I need to see one - that sounds amazing!

I’ve had 3 watches without running seconds, it’s scary at first but you get used to it



With the chronos (Seiko 6138 and Citizen 8100a), you can obviously time stuff, but with no second hand at all, you can’t

So this makes a dressy no seconds watch a slightly specialist beast for more mañana situations, like art galleries and parties, in my life

It’s kinda calming to look at:
see, no rush

That CW *is* nice

Still pretty much the only watch I'm drooling over. I just spent some hours in Geneva Airport and they had every watch ever made for sale there (or nearly) but no AP :-(

Just as well...

I know this won't get much love but I love it.

I've been trying to tell myself the same thing.... I'll adapt. It would just be a 'going out' dressy watch so not essential. My OCD needs a visual assurance that it is running..... BUT: I was wrong about the 'Zex', I may well be wrong about this, too.
