The same guys who would be "offended" would be simultaneously jacking off, wishing they owned that hardware.

The red and white Sinn straps are fantastic.

Thanks. I love this watch. There are 99 others like it but this one is mine.

I bought a cheap watch from a crazy man
Floating down canal
It doesn't use numbers or moving hands
It always just says now
Now you may be thinking that I was had
But this watch is never wrong
And If I have trouble the warranty said

Anyone ever rotate the dial? That crown looks weird on the left.

It looks great on that strap, Jeff. I'm glad you got one.
Hopefully it's worth the wait, Todd. I think you'll like it.

Me too. I always intended to, and when the time came I didn't really have the funds, plus I've gotten used to small watches again. (and if I'm honest, this does feel big right now, but I assume I'll adjust) It's funny, it's obviously based on a U1, but it feels so different than standard U1s somehow. I guess it's the domed sapphire more than anything else, but it definitely has a different feel to it, much more than can be explained by the individual upgrades, if that makes sense.

Functionally it is very nice. The watch is broad, and it doesn't dig into your wrist. Given that it is a no date and the top grade movement is running well within COSC specs, I will seldom need to touch the crown.

It's all about comfort. The lefty crown is far more comfortable and protected when this watch is used as I intended.

Anybody know how much a naked bezel costs?
It's definitely $350. I ordered one yesterday,
:clap:

Thanks man. Now to think about whether I want to spend $350 on a bezel. :)
Maybe this guy will take $200

Great shot. Really shows the way in which Chris incorporated that EZM1 dial into the U1P.

Awesome Peter!

That's my dream duo right there!


For now I'll settle for my 103 and U1P, but I would LOVE to have an EZM1 in the mix as well.
