ironmarshal Posted October 1, 2008 Report Share Posted October 1, 2008 I had read earlier this year that a UN rep was on its way and would most likely arrive near the Christmas / New Year's timeframe. Does anybody have any idea on the status of this project? Are we still looking at getting a hold of some UN goodness before the year is out?

Shundi Posted October 1, 2008 Report Share Posted October 1, 2008 UN would be fantastic...I thought there was buzz about one (Maxi maybe?) a few months back.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jot9011 Posted October 1, 2008 Report Share Posted October 1, 2008 I'd love to see the UN MM repped, but the older model with the seconds at 6 and PR would be hard to rep The 2008 model while more complicated, could be done with an A7750" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I remember, RobbieG was saying that they were repping a UN using an A7750 with a subdials at 6 and 9 layout. My guess is that we are almost certainly going to see the UN MMD Chrono. I would love to see them do the version you have shown, it's an amazing watch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samurai Posted October 2, 2008 Report Share Posted October 2, 2008 Heard its going to come out around end of the year...... Hont has pics of the original UN on his site.....I think that's the one being used to make reps. Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unkindone Posted October 3, 2008 Report Share Posted October 3, 2008 I always wondered why UN's were never repped...or attempted. They seem to be popular, and are damn sexy in any cause, more so then other rep brands Ive seen.. I would LOVE a Maxi marine SS + rubber black face, uhg...

P4GTR Posted October 5, 2008 Report Share Posted October 5, 2008 a MM would definitely spark my interest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fotoman Posted October 5, 2008 Report Share Posted October 5, 2008 really? that one? - there has never been a decent seconds@6 mvt Rrr, i want the maxi marine chrono - but - i'll be a begger rather than a chooser Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samurai Posted October 5, 2008 Report Share Posted October 5, 2008 You're right Pho....not a single reliable sec @ 6 movement out there. Maybe they will come out with a mod movement for this...as they did for AP ROO sec @ 12. Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ironmarshal Posted October 5, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 5, 2008 I've heard that there are two different groups working on UN reps. One is working on a subdial at 6,9 variation (most likely the MMD Chrono) using an A7750. I had also heard that a MMD was coming, but hadn't heard anything about which dial variations were coming (hopefully the black dial, not a big fan of the Blue Surf variation). The MMD will probably go with a manual wind seagull. I've heard the movement already has a working power reserve at 12. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pugwash Posted October 5, 2008 Report Share Posted October 5, 2008 You're right Pho....not a single reliable sec @ 6 movement out there. Maybe they will come out with a mod movement for this...as they did for AP ROO sec @ 12. Cheers There's loads of reliable sec@6 movements, just not chronographs.
