My 1st German Babe
« on: March 22, 2010, 12:54:58 PM »
First, i would like to thanks to our fellow forumer who help me to acquire this german babes... :thumbsup: i am not good in writing so pardon me for my lousy England.

Some introduction to U1 ;-

•   Movement
•   Caliber:ETA 2824-2
•   Movement winding:Automatic
•   Bearing jewels:25
•   Alternations:28.800 /Std.
•   Case
•   Case material:German submarine steel
•   Crystal:Sapphire, with anti-reflective coating on both sides
•   Case back:Solid
•   Waterproof:yes
•   Pressure resistance:100 bar  / 1000m
•   Diameter of case:44,0 mm
•   Watch thickness:14,3 mm
•   Weight:113 g
•   Band lug width:22 mm

Definition of TEGIMENT® and the black hard coating
The stainless steel case hardened using TEGIMENT® technology provides extremely effective protection from scratches on the case surface. To achieve this, we do not apply any coatings of foreign materials; rather, the surface of the stainless steel itself is hardened in a special process. In turn, the black, hard coating is applied to the U1000 S model, for example, by physical vapor deposition (PVD). This high-quality, black, hard coating is achieved only in combination with TEGIMENT technology


Ok here we go with the photo;-

Original Sinn dust bag


great contrast for white catalogue with black watches box


others catalogue from Frankfurt


usefull wrist band for u to measure u wrist...but dont know how to use the marker (grey color)


what would u get inside the box, manual & warranty card (excld extra strap)


front shot...


side shot, tegimented case (in grey color)


solid case back and butterfly clasp (not sure the tegimented apply to the clasp or not)


another side shot


Rubber strap with Sinn wording

OK, Last but not least, the wrist shot


and my heart pain over cut rubber strap..



My 1st impression to Sinn U1 SDR tegimented is wow this babe is heavier than my daily beater sub 16610, despite Sub c/w S/S bracelet and U1 c/w rubber strap. Both U1 and sub are using the same screw in crown system.

Aesthetically compare to Sub and MM
