I thought I'd share an interesting UG I saw recently on my travels.
Its a beautiful 2-register UG with telemeter, immaculate blue steel hands and a peculiar logo above 6.

Posted it on Instagram and asked if anybody could identify it, within minutes the super-cool Angelo Gallamini @neroleonangel (who has a fantastic collection) provides the answer...

Its the "Nodo di Savoia" logo of the royal House of Savoy, one of the oldest royal families in the world and which at one point ruled all of Italy. Thank you Angelo!!

Here it is along with a funky Movado 90M I saw.

If anybody has anymore info, I would appreciate it very much.

That Movado is not to be made light of. In fact, of the two, I think I prefer it.
