For me, the UN, chronos are pretty much of a waste and future costs of servicing or repair favor the UN.

 

All great watches, I have a Nardin an IWC, and Zenith is on my short list of watches I'd buy. I'm not a huge fan of diver chronographs as I think that function is somewhat contradictory to the type of watch. Also, the IWC isn't a manufacture movement, so if that means something to you I'd rule that model out.

What would you have rather have, a chronograph or a power reserve?

 

Get the Zenith Stratos that was released before the special Felix edition. It features a transparent case back instead of the mug shot. You'll be able to see the blue silicone gear that drives the central second hand at its incredible speed.

The IWC and Ulysse Nardin are nice, but not remarkable. Of course if you're looking for a genuine dive watch they may be a better choice.

 

First, welcome to the forum. In my opinion with these kind of watches the quality is always good. So just buy the one you like,.... To me these three are completely different from each other, but I would prefer the IWC. Just because of the looks as the others are just too busy for me.

Oh and a topic like this without pics,.... hmmmmmm.

Good luck and don't forget to share the photo's when it's in!!

 

All should be of excellent quality, it just comes down to styling. I've had very positive experiences with UN and IWC, as I've owned two of each. Of these options, the UN would easily be my choice...I like the nautical styling and they make a really excellent blue dial. Great bracelet too.

 

Between these choices, I would opt for the Zenith on the strength of the El Primero movement.

 

All very nice, I prefer the Zenith.

 

I'd go the IWC only based on looks.

 

I'd get the zenith. They are very well built.

 

Zenith. Based on looks and it had the most well regarded movement.

 

Zenith. For me, the others don't come close.

 

Another vote for Zenith.

 

I like the looks of the IWC the best, but the Zenith is a close second.

 

Welcome to the forum SinAfterSin (no absolution here I'm afraid). I don't doubt that the are all well made but when a dial has more than one primary colour on it, I start to recoil in fear.

 

I'll go for Zenith. But maybe the Open Chrono.
