Thanks, Richard! Another very nice one, though I'm not sure about the texture of the dial.

Of course, the other thing about left-field is that it comes from nowhere and blows you away. That was my reaction when I saw the UN this morning!

Here's a borrowed picture of what we're talking about...

Ulysse Nardin San Marco GMT +/- Big Date.

Thanks to Nik (H0rati0) I now have some information on these.

Left field (very) but dressy...
Not a patch on the UN that seems to have tickled your watch fancy though :thumbup:

^^^Thanks, Stephen. Not sure why, but that one doesn’t particularly appeal to me. I think it’s the square case/round dial combo.

Anyway, I have been doing some research on the UN and I’m really rather impressed.

Reviving an oldish thread, but could this very summery Nomos Club fit the bill?

^^^Thanks for the idea, Bjørn, but I'm not a fan of the Club...or that much orange on a watch.
