Sinn U2

Great review, thankyou very much for taking the time to do this.

I have a bob strap and highly recommend them ( waccex.de )

Id love to see a guide to waterproofing chrono pushers

Great work! The SA is going to be my next watch, when the Mrs lets me buy another one The franken SA's are awesome, especially love the Gen dial. How did you go about getting it waterproof? I have done it myself but with non chronos (seal He valves and grease crown and caseback) But How do you go about doing it with chrono pushers? Do they have their own little gaskets? Especially the non screwdown types on the SA. I haven't opened my skyland so I dont know, but when I opened my Bently 6.75 it looked like the was a simple rod with no gaskets or anything.

Oh how I love that Longines

hehehe I bought it in my naive days on eBAy before I found this wonderful place and discovered the world of reps

hehe I own one Still going strong after 5 years thou Ill give it that

Great photos and thanks for the comparison

what the cheapest thing you can open the back of a breitling with, and tighten it decently, I take my watches into water.

Yeah I have a brown rep strap for my 6.75 (white dial) and it feels rubbery as hell, I wonder if its even leather and not just a piece of rubber painted in a fancy manner. Needless to say Im looking for a replacement. Im looking at BOB straps, and a bit fearful of getting another rep strap if its going to be like the one I already have, but mightynimrod seems very happy with his, so maybe its a different grade. And to confuse me further, bob doesn't make a 24mm deployment or I would have been all over it!! Id like to keep it on deployment, but if I have to go tang for a decent strap ill do it...

I understand your frustration mate, sometimes you just ask yourself why you bother. ps. can I get your Sinn

Never bought boots online, I tend to buy them when they are on sale around local stores. Make sure he tries them on before buying. I play a center back (sweeper), and yeah make sure they are tough boots, I have torn many up through the years in some rough tackles. Had mixed results with Nike, Adidas used to be good but at one stage they went all nasty plasticy, Im a convert to Pumas now, used to have kings and they were the most comfortable boots I have ever had. If he has narrow feet, the mercurial line are really good, I had a pair and they were like gloves, just fit perfectly. But they were a bit more delicate though, I went through 2 pairs and they lasted a season each (which is about average for me anyway), both times toe opened up. I dunno what your fields are like over there, but if they are very soft, you might wanna go the Soft ground (screws). I haven't had a pair of screws for years, our grounds are very firm around here, but this year its rained like crazy and most fields are cow paddocks and the molds just get clogged up.

Ahh makes sense, well I guess we have these tards to thank for our franken projects Would be nice if they started to "Customize" some skylands more

Never will understand how people like that. ..its basically like shitting on art

niiiiice

that's pretty cool you get 2 minutes to move the camera around as much as you want

Id get the Seawolf, it is a thicker watch and has a real wrist presence.

same, Im waiting.... waiting. hope the rumors are true

so that's where we can get our tang buckles 25 bucks

I have a similar issue, does pop out but not as easily as yours. I wish bob sold 24mm deployant straps for breitling, these rep straps are terrible.

all things aside, are they really gonna make a new version of the steelfish?

wish they sold a rep of the quartz version, my oldman is a destroyer of automatics and I would get him one straight away.

id recommend a non chrono model, seawolf or steelfish, much easier to waterproof and much less chance of a leak. The chrono pushers are a risk.

wow looks exactly like a gen!
