    Super interesting, but super small unfortunately. The dials in these degrade even faster than in the round models - the cases must be pretty drafty. Because it is so rare to come across a model in decent shape, much sought after.

    The dimension does seem small at 26.5mm x 26.5mm but the square shape helps as diagonally it is 38mm.

    In case anyone interested it can be found here

    Also not exactly related to this thread but I always come across something I find might be of interest when I go through the japanese sites. Real or fake Hermes?

    It's using UG's smallest caliber, which was usually used in women's chrono's. The size isn't a problem. The overexposed nature of the pictues make it difficult for me to assess the dial.

    Too bad they don't have better pictures, I am not going to be going after it though. Still chasing for another later aero with original bracelet but the seller will only deal face to face in Osaka. I can't even find time to go to local gtg :p (so no way to get that one....)

    I believe the small square(-ish) cases are women's watches. I remember seeing an old UG ad with that watch aimed at female clientele

    I also believe that. Many of the smaller round ones are aimed at women, too - but I think that some square ones were aimed at men.
