I have a particular fondness for UG deco numbers. I thought it might be fun to have a thread dedicated to these. I have a few, they are all in the shop, but just picked up this one today. I love the dial and the case is nice too, has these very delicate, triple faceted lugs.

Thx Larry. The other thing that's unusual about this case is it takes 20mm straps. Biggest strap size of any of my UGs.

does this '38 Waltham count? If nothing else it has the world's most useless second hand!

This thread is quite timely; I bought this before Christmas and it's been sitting around since then. Unfortunately it's a plated case but seems to be in fairly good order and, worn in rotation, should see me out.

wow, love it. Whats the case size on this one? I think plated cases are a good value at the moment, people seemed to avoid them like the plague.

Not quite as swank as some of the ones above, but still stylized:

Tend to see the deco on time only, so I love seeing them on the chronos!

Two more installments in the deco numbers collection. (I have posted these previously when first purchased, but just picked them up from service at watchmaker, so now officially home....)
