UN nutters; have you seen these?

I know, I know, these are not from recommended dealers. You gotta look around though, don't you....?

Anyway, I surfed around iOffer just now and came across these (seemingly) lovely pieces:

"Sonata Cathedral Dual Time"

"Maxi Marine Chronograph"

another "Sonata Cathedral Dual Time"

When I first saw the Sonatas I thought for a moment that the pictures were of the genuine articles, but when I looked closer there were obvious differences. Mainly the whole "machinery" for controlling the Sonata's chimes is absent from the left side of the watch, but the dial and subdials too are quite different upon closer inspection and really not at all the close replications I thought for the first few seconds. However, unless the pictures lie they are lovely watches in their own right and I thought perhaps some of the UN fans might be interested.

Much the same goes for the Maxi Marine Chronograph, although at least the case has no significant features missing. The subdials are wrong though, both in functions and appearance, and the dial, although apparently fairly accurate, does not have the contrasting colours of the genuine Maxi Marine Chronographs. Still, I thought this one too was quite a nice watch in its own right and maybe of some interest.

Sorry if this is old news to most, but I hadn't seen a post regarding these so I just went ahead.
