Two very special watches. One houses UN's Cal. NB 11 QU movement, of which only 1000 ever made; the other, Seiko's automatic 6146 - one of the best high-beat movements that Seiko have ever produced, (a modification of the movement later became the 6185A, which was used in the Grand Seiko VFA).

Nice. I've been on the lookout for an older hi-beat GP.

Whoa, I really like the look of that UN, is that out of production I assume?

Those watches look great! The GS is a classic but there is something in that UN that I kind of prefer. Thank you for sharing!
