Sinn U1 with gen SDR bezel


Whatever123

Recommended Posts

Hi,

I always loved the Sinn U1 - and when I found one in RGs sales area for under 100 Euros I jumped on it...

I think it's a pretty good rep, AR is great and it seems to be really close to the gen. Unfortunately the bezel isn't very good. The painted numbers somehow scream "FAKE"... :thumbdown:

As I liked the black bezel SDR version better anyway, I decided to buy a gen bezel. They go for 250 Euro... :black_eye:. Well, I found a new one that was a bit cheaper but nontheless... quite an investment in a 100 Euro rep.

But I think it was really worth it - the watch really looks gen now. And by the way, swapping the bezel was done in 2 minutes - unscrew the 4 tiny screws, take the old bezel off, fit the new one, screw tight again. Easy!

What do you think?

Cheers,

P.S.: The rubber strap is gen, too - you get them for just 30 Euros (without the clasp)!

So this is a gen strap? The one thing I don't like really about my U2, is the strap. The rep strap attracts too much dust. Is the gen any better?

Hi!

The strap still attracts some dust - but I've definitely seen worse rubber straps. It's OK for me. And for 30 Euros it's probably worth a shot...

Cheers,

W.

the strap on my gen u2 is hands down my favorite rubber strap of any brand -- definitely well worth the money imho.
