Nah we don't need to copy DSSD, just a nice dark blue unlike Blue Pelagos :)

Here take this blue :)

Yeah, that's a no for me. Red hands on a blue dial? I'm color blind, and even I know that doesn't work. If I could wear a U1, it'd be the Pro.

I'm fairly confident they'd do it. We just need 50 participants.

I'm in, U2 Plain Bezel without GMT hand and a 24 hour ring, let's do it, I'm serious, we can make it midnight blue dial so U2 Chronos version owners don't get upset :thumbsup:

Just pretend this is a u2 case not u212, someone please PHotoshop dark blue dial

I've already suggested exactly this design. Sinn is weird about certain things.

I actually like it. $2000 on bracelet is a really good deal for a regular U1, but for an LE it is even a sweeter deal.

Certainly takes some "inspiration" from the Deep Blue DSSD.

OK. Lets go with a dial that fades from brown to black. We can call it the Balls Deep Shit Diver.
It might not look too bad actually :lol:

Needs turds for hands. If already has the toilet paper second hand though.

The more I look at this the more disappointed I am.
They need to get rid of all of the red. Hands need to go, red markings need to go... and the big blu1 needs to go.

I appreciate the design of the U1P even more now

This is how I would've done it: blue gradient dial, all white UX hands, U2 crystal, black numerals on the bezel and ditch the BLU1 on the dial in favor of U1B done in white. Done.

I actually like the diver shit brown render better than the Sinn blu1 LoL. I'm def not feeling the red on the hands. But the baby blue on the MSB (monkey shit brown) dial is def Danny approved :)

I dont get much mileage out of royal blue. Midnight blue might work
You know, all this does for me is make me want a UX but without the $300 battery change.

I think we're looking at ths wrong.....P&G designed it - they should be on the firing line, not Sinn.
Yes, Sinn agreed to produce it, but didn't design it.

I'd be all over that, honestly. The 212 is almost ideal but just too big. Would love to see a single time zone version of the U2 done in a U1P style. :fro:

For all of you clamoring for a blue dial, I get it. As I've said before, Sinn is weird about certain things. You'll get blue when they are good and ready.

I don't care for Sinn blue unless it's Arktis blue.

Is that a slight hint that they are bringing a version of that back?
