I read that UN send their assembled ETA 'kits' to be COSC tested then add on the chronograph module and the power reserve meter.
I would have thought that the full movement (less the rotor) would have been sent to COSC.
That being said I like the look of it but the price in Oz for this watch is very high for an ETA movement IMO.

UN is a top brand and imo they are more important then ROlex
But to be honest, I don't like this diver

Have to say I prefer the UN. Would like it even better if it had sword-style hands...

For me if you don't have a rolex or two get the YM, but if you want something different go for the UN.

I like UN but definately prefer the YM.

If you go for the UN try to make sure it's a keeper. Not good resale on them at all.
With that aside, I still prefer the YM. One of the best looking luxury sports watches IMO.
