Sinn U2 baby!

[BSears]

ok, so I've had it for almost two weeks now and I've been horribly slow to get some pics taken, much less up here so here's some really quick and dirty (and pretty down right shitty) pics i took late last night. I'll get some better ones so put yer flame throwers down.

had it on Sinn rubber to begin with - super comfy, but I expected nothing less. After some back and forth with watchbuys, I find out the 757/857 tegimented bracelet is in stock and since that was the one I initially envisioned for this watch if/when I ever got it, I had to go for the teg version. Glad I did. I can't tell any difference (color-wise) between the bracelet (teg'd) and case (non-teg'd). I will say that the flip lock on the clasp doesn't instill much confidence but the clasp itself is friction-fit and is very snug - a good thing.

The bracelet is more substantial than pics give away. But it's damn near impossible to get an idea of anything in pics than just looks.

All in all, heavy, solid feel. Over-engineered German goodness. What's not to love?! (I'll give a long term review later on - you all already know the specs on this one but if you are a stickler for the details, I'll make sure to do a "proper" review next time.)



















I took some other pics in a little better lighting but I guess they didn't make it in the upload.

Nice, Brad
I love the profile shots, but I`m pretty sure these are supposed to be taken in the bathroom or some sort of public toilet Wu be the master at this.

Nice Brad. Glad the colors match. Welcome the the family of Sinn.

[matt.wu]

Now please don't open it up.

[ElChingon7]

Now please don't open it up.

Great score Brad, i've got a teg bracelet for my U1 and cant tell the difference!

[aikiman44]

Looks great, glad the deal worked out.

Now please don't open it up.

[rockmastermike]

ahhh, well done, Brad.....Sinn is the bees knees and that U2 is top shelf all the way.

[BSears]

thanks fellers. I've changed my mind....once I get that argon box built, it's on like donkey kong. Anybody else with U2 that wants something done, like seals lubed, slight tweaking of the movement, whatever simple, just let me know.
























I joke - no way am I going to open this one up.

Someone mentioned bathroom shots - oddly enough, that was the best lighting I could find last night and took a few on a white background but those didn't upload to photobucket for some reason. No worries, I put the tp and toothpaste away and decided against using them as props.

Sweet watch! Well done, Brad.

[Chief Big Watch]

Congrats! Now stop being a pu**y, build the darn box and open that bad boy up! You know you want to.

*golf clap*

[Seth]

I have a HUGE bottle of argon here waiting for you.

[moishlashen]

Hot watch. Bracelet is the way to go on that IMO so definately a good call on that. Now you can set GMT time to Roar time like me

[ikkoku]

bracelet is the way to go....

oh and be careful, teg bracelets do scratch as mine had deep scratches. I don't think the bracelets are sub steel (I could be wrong).

[justsellbrgs]

Excellent!

[ezcheese]

That one is cool. I got to fondle it in person.

[BSears]

More pics....not like any of you haven't seen a hundred pics of the U2.







The box the bracelet came in. This is more than you get with some whole watches. (and yes, that's a toothbrush in the top right corner, bathroom shot a la Wu )



up close and personal with the tegimented bracelet...









I thought this end piece looked a little off. Maybe it's just my eyes.







vs. Omega PO





It appears still many shots did not get uploaded. GD Macbook Pro - you guys told me it would be better than a PC.

[vbuskirk]

It's "better", but you're still better off with stationary and a nice pen. Nice shots. Whose winning? The Sinn or the Omega?

What's "better"? I haven't had a full cup of coffee yet dude, I'm not firing on all cylinders right now.

I think the Omega still wins for fit and finish, but I wouldn't have expected to compare these two anyway. The 2893 in the U2 winds smooth as butter. But this watch is just asking to be exposed to the elements in ways I wouldn't think of with the PO.

Looks Great Congrats Brad
