    I can’t see it making much of a difference myself
    It’s only available on the larger U watches and the rubber straps on these are the best I have owned. I have never needed more flexibility in them. I also wonder about the rub marks the adaptors will leave on the lugs as they articulate.

    Looks to be a solution to a problem nobody knew they had (like a lot of the tech they use).

    The clasp on the other hand is well overdue. it looks to be a neat solution to micro adjust, a bit like Rolex but not as refined. (Instructions say remove the strap before using the quick adjust - ???)
    Agree that there is no issue with Sinn straps but I do love these strap adapters. But then I also absolutely love Tudor P01.
    The straps do need to be removed to adjust length but it is very easy to remove strap.

    Just back from TWR after nearly 8 weeks away for a service and some TLC.

    Question:

    A U50 that's just been delivered has the bezel off by half a click.

    Can the screws be backed out on the captive bezel, rotate it slightly and tighten the screws or will it always be off?

    Cheers

    You might need to reposition the spring but it is possible.

    Thank you all I was looking for this one for a long time!

    Ordered my first Sinn, a U1 T from Jura on Friday. I was told 2-4 weeks for it to come down from Sinn.

    Got an email yesterday, now looking at December. That'll teach me to be particular and go for the fully tegimented version.

    😂

    That’s a good pick up! Look forward to seeing the pics

    I hesitated on it too long and when decided to go for it, was then sold out typically

    Do it, it’s a great watch no can’t think of any cons yet maybe a half link would of suited me just to have the micro adjust on the middle setting

    But really nice watch, comfy (had a ezm13 before) so wears similar, really good on straps too. The Sinn rubber strap is super comfy (I’ve got one coming from Sinn)

    There are deals to be had also of buying new

    Which model is that, looks really nice (and a great pic too, nice light and angles!)

  29. #979
    UX.

    Oil filled case, thermo compensated quartz good for 15 secs per year I think while sitting 5000m underwater (but the case is good for 12km apparently)

    It's probably the coolest watch I've owned

    It's marking the retirement of the F-4 Phantom from the Japanese air force.

    That's correct.

    The Japanese Defense Force just retired their last F4 Phantoms in 2020.

    Translated from the official Sinn Japan site:

    The "556.F-4" is a pilot watch made in honor of the retirement of the jet fighter F-4 Phantom II, nicknamed "Phantom", in Japan.
    The F-4 Phantom II fighter, which is popular with aviation fans, has been operated by the Japan Air Self-Defense Force under the name of F-4EJ in Japan since 1971, but in December 2020, the last fighter unit of the phantom, Hyakuri. The 301st Squadron at Sato Base has completed the operation of the F-4 Phantom. On March 17, 2021, the Gifu Air Development and Test Wing completed the last flight, and all F-4s were completely retired in Japan.
    This model is based on 556.A, and the unit marks of eight squadrons equipped with this F-4 phantom by the Air Self-Defense Force are lined up on the dial, and the rotor seen from the see-through back is the official character of the phantom. It is marked with "Spook". Also included is a helmet back with a patch of eight squadron unit marks and an integration cow leather as well as a dial. It is a limited edition of only 100 watches with phantom elements studded everywhere in the excellent functionality as a pilot watch that meets the high demands of professionals.

    With eight squadrons on the dialLocation base when equipped with F-4

    * 1 o'clock position: 301st Squadron (Hyakuri base, Ibaraki, Nittahara base, Miyazaki, Hyakuri base, Ibaraki)
    * 2 o'clock position: 302nd Squadron (Chitose base in Hokkaido, Naha base in Okinawa prefecture, Hyakuri base in Ibaraki)
    * 4 o'clock position: 8th Squadron (Misawa base, Aomori)
    * 5 o'clock position: 305th Squadron (Hyakuri base, Ibaraki)
    * 7 o'clock position: 306th Squadron (Komatsu Base, Ishikawa)
    * 8 o'clock position: 304th Squadron (Fukuoka Prefecture Tsuiki Air Base)
    * 10 o'clock position: 303rd Squadron (Komatsu base, Ishikawa)
    * 11 o'clock position: Reconnaissance Air Corps 501st Squadron (Hyakuri Base, Ibaraki)

    I presume that Japan is a reasonably important market for Sinn? There are usually quite a few from there listed on Chrono24.

    As a Sinnlover and lover of the F4 Phantom this leaves me cold…
    I presume these will be given to the top bods in the squadrons and will trade for much more than the initial price but meh
