Guys you are not comparing these watches fairly. Yes the UN MMD does not have the best resale and can be had for about $3k vs $1500-2k for a Steelfish - but make no mistake - these watches are nothing alike. The fit and finish on the UN MMD is on par with that of a JLC and very close to a Patek. Just read up online and you will find many others with experience with this watch make the same claim.


I agree to their finishing, TO A POINT. Not up there with Patek and maybe JLC as I have never handled a JLC. UN is a classy looking line IMO. I vote UN because it adds variety to your collection. I do however think of the SF being a bit more rugged in terms of looks.

Which is why I think the UN is worth the extra money. Frankly I think it blows the SF away at second hand prices, but hey, there are a lot of SF owners here and I don't want to get lynched. :mrgreen:
