 After a little saving and a timely bonus check i am in a unique position to actually purchase a grail, free and clear. 

 

UTS 1000m bauhaus dial with bracelet

                       OR

Sinn U1 on bracelet

 

Im struggling here, as both are simple divers that i have swooned over for quite a while.....little help?  Chooing between 2 is rough.  I called UTS and he has 2 1000m left..one bauhaus..and one black bezel.  and only 30 bauhaus made it to us shores. where as the U1 will, for the most part, always be out there..   what would my fellow WIS do..  sigh

 You have an enviable dilemma.  I'd go for the Sinn, but  you should go with your gut. Good luck with whichever you choose.

 Easy choice for me: Sinn U1.

Revolutionary and virtually-indestructible Vitton seals, tangented bezel similar to submarine hull steel quality, a company chairman obssessed with quality and with a tendency to overbuild.....It's SINN U1, amigo!smile8.gif

It's ok to be a SINNer in this casetoon1.gif. I'm not taking anything away from the UTS, however.

 While I am a huge fan of anything Bauhaus (its in the blood), I would have to say the U1. I think they look smashing on the bracelet and of course it is just a top notch diver.

 Congrats on saving up enough dough so that you can purchase a terrific new watch!!!  cool10.gif  I believe you should get the one that you like the most because in the end you are the one wearing and admiring it.  :)  I just noticed that Sinn has announced a price increase starting 1 Septmistake.gifmistake.gifmistake.gif and they are using the drop in the dollar to Euro exchange rate as the basis for a large increase!  :X   If you decide to buy the Sinn hopefully you'll be able to make your purchase before the price increase takes effect.  They both look like awesome dive watches to me so either way you'll pick a winner.  ThumbsUp02.gif  Not that it matters but I personally would buy the Sinn.  hand6.gifhand6.gif  Be sure and let us know which watch you decide on buying and then post some cool pictures of it, cheers.  woohoo.gif
