It's a U1 so there likely isn't a capsule.

Agreed, but look at the pic. Glare? And I think the bezel must be turned. Because I don't see the date which is normally at 3. So this probably has the crown still at 4

I think glare from lighting.

Could be crown @ 4 or a no-date. We'll know Wednesday. :excited:

It took me all of 4 seconds looking at a thumbnail in an FB email to see where you were going with this, and where you were going was good. This looks like a *great* U1 iteration. Congrats; I can't wait to see more!

Rob, please don't shit on my thread. This was an enjoyable experience for me, so don't try to ruin it.
My apologies. I'm sure it'll be a knockout. The U2 crystal since makes it a winner..

If the watch looks half as good as the teaser shot, you will have a winner on your hands! Looking forward to seeing more.

Since you were the creative and driving force behind this will Sinn recognize you in the name....EZM-Chris?!?

That works for me. Rob came up with the official name "Professional" based on a conversation we had when we first started this project. I mentioned that the U1 was too whimsical with all the red accents.
