    Wow, one looks like a DLC lume-dial U50 with no date. Pretty much perfect. Except I don't quite understand how everyone else can produce fully lumed bezels, and Sinn do so few of them

    Sinn Lume in general is pretty poor, it is at best average on some models, I am not sure I would want it on a bezel unless they resolved this.
    Sinn argue their use of C1 means the watches glow longer, which I would agree they do but if they are insistent of keeping the white lume plots I would have thought BGW9 would be a much better choice these days as it is both superior in initial brightness and longevity in my experience.

    UX50 makes a lot of sense, but I just can't get past how wrong they got the proportions of the U50 range - the bezel is too wide and clumsy. U1 works; T50 works; but U50 is a failure for me - makes the dial look too small:

    That is stunning, I think that's a front runner for the best looking sports chronograph on the market!

    Nice but not enough contrast to make it easily readable imo.
    That said my eyesight is now at the point where a chronograph is merely wrist jewellery and serves no other purpose cos I cant read it

    Agreed. It could do with black or dark grey hands really. Mostly silver hands against a pale dial aren't ideal, as I commented in another thread.

    Ahh the U50 Hydro users the ronda 715li not the haq of the ux

    Don’t mind the 715 in a £300 watch but at £2000+ it gives me doubts

    Knew it was too good to be true

    Yeah probably to cust costs but keep price high!

    I’m seriously tempted by the 103, waiting to see what the UK suppliers price it at before buying from Sinn!

    Being lazy and not checking - but does the Li movement not have up to 10 years battery life? Think I'd rather have the less frequent servicing costs if so.

    FWLIW I have non-HAQ Ronda quartz movements in a couple of watches: timekeeping is incredible, the Tissot chrono has only needed adjusting for daylight saving in the last 3 years, it's still less than a minute out now.

    Think I saw 5 years mentioned.

    Have to agree with acg’s sentiments regarding the movement vs cost. Was initially excited at the prospect of adding this to the “daily”collection and was even considering moving on my Tegimented U50 but on reflection, it just does not make any sense. Finding myself a little drawn to that U50 full lume limited edition though for some reason.
