Dear All, here is my first UG Chrono, well not with me yet but as far as I see it's in good shape and looks original. What are your thoughts.... any thing should I consider that I miss, all original ?? I have to close the deal by tomorrow even do I already made on the phone but no transfer yet. I really appreciate all your inputs .
thanks again O😀

Depends on the price.
Looks original to me, but as @Dan S said, tachy is most probably gone.

Pics are not good, so my observatios could be wrong:
Lower pusher seems to be a bit more inside the case.
Expect the movement to be rusty as the seconds subdial is "colored".
Blueing of the subdial hands also seems to have vanished.

price I think is good, 1.500 € , what do you think for an UG 18K pink gold?

Case does not look like pink gold to me. The pushers look to be pink maybe ?

I think it's the light. A/The blue strap usually makes the case look less pink.

Factor a service of 500 Euros in, so it's more the region of 2000.

Looks ok. Polished at points in its life. Get it serviced. Looks to me like someone tried to clean the dial. That and the corrosion around seconds sub tells me this had moisture.

Thanks Larry, do you think that the price is fair?

Given its condition...Yes. I might have attempted to Push back to 1200 to give some head space for service.

From the reference is pink gold for sure

if you are talking about the case reference, it does not indicate pink vs yellow gold, it just indicates 18K or 14K or SS or chrome

The first number indicates the material used to make the case.

- 1 = 18 carat gold case
- 2 = steel case
- 3 = chrome-plated case
- 4 = gilded case
- 5 = 14 carat gold case
- 6 = no examples of reference numbers starting with the number 6 has been found, or any sources attesting to any such existence
- 7 = 14 carat white gold case

yes, and of course with gold, you also have the additional hallmarks which provide the same info, in addition to the first digit of the case ref....
