Who needs an upgraded clasp when you can just rip off the Rolex OP dial colors? Super innovative. :thumbsup:

I for one am really liking the new 103.
It reminds me of how I like my women.
Thick and gassy.

No surprise, the aquamarine dial is selling like the proverbial hotcakes.
I get it, and it didn't surprise me when Omega jumped on the wagon, but Sinn has never struck me as a company to follow someone else's lead. But I'm sure they'll sell. I wish I hadn't sold my U1P, still the best Sinn IMO.
sinn would probably tell you the germans did it first and they're following Nomos.
Did Nomos do it too? I'm out of the loop.

You can find the old versions for sale around 2k sometimes.
Honestly the 103 titanium case is wonderful. It’s same size as the EZM1 and feels so nice. It’s thick but wearable and does not move around like the steel sapphire 103.
It’s true, I’ve been wearing it on a Zulu and it’s not an issue. While it’s taller, the light weight makes it work.

It really is - I had the ti testaf version and loved it. Another I should have kept. I think back when I bought it, it was $2600 new on bracelet.

The 103 testaf is one I really want back impossible to find. A few on eBay Japan and they are like $3k + and questionable condition.
I sold mine for $1800…..

I was hoping for a Ti EZM 1.1 or a T1S. The U50 S BS is perfect. It has that U2C style bezel colors. Except it’s to small for my liking.

I still think a Tegimented Grade5 Ti U1 would be amazing! Make it thin like the U50 too with the SW300. I would pay $3,500 for that in a heartbeat!
Seiko: SBDB001, SBDX001, SRP777

Sinn: EZM9, T1, T1B, 836 & 857S

Agreed, but it would be $5500 for sure.

With that U50 blue, they have just about everything they need to make a U50 Professional

You are right about Sinn having the black/white bezel and black/white hands. But I want Sinn in big red letters. Blue lume. Dome sapphire.
I would actually opt for a date wheel, but I know I’m in the minority.

The blue u50 is one of the first watches in a year or so to have me thinking about a new purchase. Are the u50s meeting reasonable resale?

Oh yeah. I’ve seen a lot on Reddit that only take a few hundred off for being used- and they sell. They were also hard to source new for a while. Now that I have mine I haven’t been been paying attention to recent sales or WB stock.

Thanks. It's a lot of coin, but probably not a bad prospect if resale doesn't take too much of a dive.

The new Pams look great, but beware what’s under the hood.
Perezcope has uncovered another Panerai movement scandal.

The 41mm Top Gun Ceratanium looks kind of cool, but not for $11K

That white one looks like someone at IWC saw the swatch speedy and thought “shit we gotta make one too, but let’s make ours EXPENSIVE”.
