Your wife is correct. It looks like a Lego watch. Lego, the single most enjoyable toy that I ever had as a kid. Lego, which has enabled and assisted in the development of imaginative minds both young and old. Isn't that what watches like this Sinn are for? Imaginative minds asking themselves, "What if........" Nice review, thank you.
Excellent comment! You're right Lego to start and then Meccano when you get older👍👍
Hell yeah! Thank you for the comments my friend!
Great comment sir. Lego started my engineering career. Meaning the Lego comment of Russle´s wife is one big compliment 👍👍👍
Wives are always correct you didn’t learn this yet? It makes life much easier
Good comment indeed!
You can totally tell how much you love this watch from this video (insert a “find someone who looks at you the way the MWC looks at his Sinn U50” meme here 🤣).
What an absolute beast of a tool watch 💪500m water resistance but still so wearable thanks to that thinness and diameter. It’s so good when a watch you’ve had your eye on lives up to (or even exceeds) your expectations!
A proper feel good MWC show to get the weekend off to a great start 🙌
Thanks Gareth as always! I love it when a plan comes together!;) it’s a STUNNER!!!
I went into a rabbit hole looking at sinn watches. I really want to own this u50. The more I learn about sinn, the more impressive it becomes. Great buy. Lucky guy 👍🏼
Luis! Thank you for finding the channel! Wearing a Sinn is like a watch enthusiasts badge of honour!!! It’s only us that know about them!
I'm eagerly waiting delivery of mine. Had a U2, but was just too big. I also have a bb58. The U50 and U1 threw the rule book away and designed something so different and so functional it's hard to ignore. I have to admit that I didn't like the U1 when I first saw it, but once you realise why they did it, then you realise how well it works and how perfect it is.
Very excited for you my friend!! What a duo of Divers ay?!
Pure joy watching your enthusiasm for the Sinn U50. Superb review of an awesome watch! 👍
Thanks so much for watching Tyson and pleased my enthusiasm came across! I really do love it!!!!
Absolutely love it, so now I need the 104 and the U50!!! Congratulations on your purchase. Cheers
I love both! But this U50 has stolen my heart! Thanks for watching buddy!
I also love my 104 and Sinn’s quality. The U50 looks like an amazing opportunity to experience the tegimented technology and the dimensions are fantastic. Thank you for this, and all your entertaining and informative reviews! I hope Mr. Santana got his 🍔.
Hahahahaha! It’s really is an amazing experience and I hope that came across! Thanks for watching and Kurt did get his burger in the end 🤣🤣🤣
I just now tonight ordered the fully tegimented Sinn U50 Black on rubber strap after watching The Mad Watch Collector's very entertaining & persuasive review (and also Teddy Baldassarre's equally informative review). I very much look forward to wearing this on my wrist in a few days! BTW, one of my very favorite movies is Das Boot.
Congratulations on the U50. I’m new to watches and to the channel (although I feel quite obsessed lately with my “bingeing” of watch videos). I’ve watched several of your videos lately and I have to say I look very forward to the wife comments at the end! Nothing like a wife to not hold back opinions. Knowing how excited you are and how much time and money you spend on things and she just says, “Nah, I don’t like it, it looks like a Lego.” Are you married to my wife?? Bravo 👏🏻. Keep them coming.
Great video once again mate! So much love to detail and fun, never boring. Great job! I'm your fan 😎
Thank you so much Gerry!!!!!
The production of your videos is next-level !!
Thanks so much Ian! Appreciate that a lot and is all worthwhile when I get messages like yours!
Now I have to get one. Knew the brand before but you really showed how good the dial looks. Thank you!
Thanks for watching my friend!!!! Go for it!!!
Wow 500M how deep is your bath? I’ve always loved this watch , and that smaller size is really appealing. It’s different and out there and a nice change. Well done on your purchase it’s awesome. 👊🏻
Thanks Martin! I have a HUGE BATH!!!!!
He likes to visit captain nemo in the weekends
Congratulations on your new addition.
Beautiful Watch.
Peace Out.
Thanks for watching buddy!!!
Another great video Russ matey, the watch collection is growing, as is your subscriber count, you will soon be at 10000 and you deserve it matey!
Cheers Mike! One of the OG subscribers!! Thanks for your support as always matey!
Another great video! I have been looking at this for a while now as it is a great design and shows serious value for money (cannot wait for the comparison to the BB58). The only thing holding me back is the anti-reflective coating on top and the bracelet clasp. I wish they would use the clasp from the rubber on the bracelet. Keep up the good work.
Absolutely Shawn! That clasp needs changing! Ar coating is interesting!
great videos, appreciate the work that you put in, and you actually buy some of your watches! keep it up
Hahaha yeah!!! It’s been on my list since it’s release last year for sure! Thank you for watching I appreciate that a lot!!
Congrats on the purchase! One day I will own a Sinn but there are just so many to choose from! The only gripe I have with this one is that the rubber strap, although I’m sure is both practical and comfortable, makes the watch appear bigger on the wrist and looks quite thick itself. Regardless, an incredible/indestructible watch
Yes agree with that Nelson although it is so sooo comfortable! I may change the strap out at some point, but it’s hard to right now as it’s so damn good!
Stunning review, thanks. To me this is as close as you can get to a perfect diving watch. I am sensing some serious Eighties vibes reminiscent of the minimalist IWC Ocean Bund. I'd definitely want one, especially at its moderate price.
Thank you very much for watching the show!! Take away the date and it would be for me;)
Stunning piece……..The design, tech and look are soo unique. Congratulations 👏
Thanks MM!! Gonna wear this a lot!;)
Great review! You were so passionate about this watch you made me add it to the list 😄
Hahaha!!! I’m glad that came across my friend!
Great vid! 🤣 Aye it’s a cool watch, would love to see it in the metal, very refreshing to see such a unique and original design from Sinn. 👏🏻
Thanks for watching buddy! It’s definitely one to see in the metal, the video doesn’t even do it justice!
Congrats on getting this one man, it's a really cool watch, love it, Sinn make some great designs with the quality to match.
Thanks man! Appreciate the support! Couldn’t agree more about Sinn!
Awesome watch mate, congratulations! I love that they're made out of U-Boat steel! And I agree, that dial is CRISP!
So crisp!!!! Clearest dial I’ve ever seen! Thanks my friend!
Whilst looking for U50 reviews I stumbled upon your channel.Nothing out there like it (your channel I mean)
Now subscribed.
One point to note for buyers is that the bezel on all U50 models is tegimented.
Cheers!
Colin thank you for finding the channel and that’s a great point !
Oh Russ... Thank you for an incredible review, I just love this watch, and also looking forward to a comparison against your Tudor Blackbay.
I'm just obsessed with the Sinn U50 and your pictures and now review has me crying for one....
I think the Sinn U50 is just a professional diver with everything being about serious underwater business...no finess, all brute diving capabilities. I just love the looks so for me it is the ultimate diver.
Thank you again mate for your wonderful video. Enjoy for years to come 👍🙏👏
Thank you so much for this my friend! Yes I’m all about the sport tool look for sure!!! It’s a fantastic timepiece !! All the best
@@THEMADWATCHCOLLECTOR 🙏🙏🙏
Love this watch. Such a left field choice. It's funky, it's quirky, it's a little mad. Like you!
Hahahahaha fair comment !
Since jumping into the world of horology only six months ago I have been captivated by this modern beauty... your videos make my chuckle, with the wonderful balance of nonsense and education. Haven't regretted subscribing to the channel... great review to keep me dreaming of one day wearing it on my wrist.
Thank you so much James! There’s always a line I’m balancing across each episode!!!;)
Yep, it’s a brilliant piece of engineering and I personally love the tooltastic look and feel. Not sure about that rubber strap, but each to their own, really want one!! Congrats again mate and thanks for the review 🙏🏻👊🏻
Thanks for watching Hendo! All I’d say is it’s very comfy ;) all the best!
Love it! The new limited one with the blue dial is very nice to! 🤩
Congratulations Russell! 🔥🔥🔥 I absolutely love the U50! I would have to get the red strap as well.🥰
Thanks Sophia! Glad you agree! Both straps are equally awesome!!
Congratulations, Sir! Superb timepiece. I think if you buy a watch like the U50 you should go all in and choose the technologies. That makes it an ultimate toolwatch and a unique one, too.
Yes great point my friend! That’s what I wanted to do if I was to ever get another Sinn!
MAD watch collector is correct. This is the first of your videos I have seen and enjoyed it immensely. I have been looking at the U1 but have not decided yet. I have large wrists and could carry it off ok. The last watch I bought was a Zelos Abyss 3 bronze about a month ago. It is massive especially the thickness. The silicon strap allows me to make it quite tight which stops it moving about on wrist. The lume is the best I have seen on any watch. I can go to bed and still read the time when I get up. I look foreword to seeing more of your videos.
Thanks for finding me Steven and for going out your way to comment!! If you large wrists def take a look at the U1!
Probably the most insane watch channel I’ve stumbled across. Just subscribed.
Thank you very much and welcome aboard!!
Perhaps… the very best Sinn U50 review on the entire web. Very well thought out and entertaining. Thanks for the video. Cheers!
You are very kind my friend! Thank you very much! Still got it! Still love it!;)
…. Even a year later!
So jealous. A little out of my current price range, so I'll admire yours from afar. Freaking amazing looking watch.
Had one U1 sold it cause i needed cash. Bought another one U1SE, today i got the U50 SDR, yay! Love the silicon, protects the case well as it expands a bit. Have the bracelets also the leather band chronissimo, very good ones too! Thanks for the review! Every Sinn watch I had, they regulated it to Chronometer specs. Just wear it for 2-3 months, and then let them know how you want it regulated.
Regarding the Sapphire coding, I only had one problem with a old 556 watch that I bought 2011, but after I gave it to the service just last year they seem to have fixed that little scratch it had, it was barely noticeable to begin with, but if one wishes, they remove it for you. On all of my U1’s, I never had any issues at all regarding the coating.
Really love your, err, idiosyncratic presentational style! 🤪. Great review, great watch! Thanks
Adrian thank you very much!
LOL, I can't believe how much I enjoy this channel. Not my typical of tea (so to speak). Keep up the mad work.
To y I appreciate that a lot! Thanks for the support!
I never did buy the 105 UTC, but did buy a 104 white dial which i love, and have also just ordered the U50 SDR so gone a bit Sinn mad :) Got them both from F&G who have provided me with great customer service, keep up the great work pal.
Big congrats on this one mate. Fabulous review. Wear it in good health. 👌
Thanks Joe as always!! Yeaaaah can’t see this being a Joe watch 😁 but I certainly will do! Thanks for watching buddy!
Very glad you are so happy with your Lego watch ha ha. Do you have a new defining watch??? This is what the hobby is about - getting totally pumped about awesome watches.
You’re right Gordon, that is what it’s all about!
Great Review Russell, still love "Spoon it", nice watch , I'd probably go for the U1 having a larger wrist and I love the fact it is hardened submarine steel! The problem I have is all these stunning dive watches that I don't have and which one do I covet the most, Squale, Sinn or a Tudor !
So much to choose from!!!!!! Thanks Dale!
I subscribed recently, very funny videos and i’ve had a few belly laughs already at your content. I can see you put a lot of work into these.
I was waiting for a smaller Sinn U watch and absolutely agree, the U50 is the toughest most unique and wearable diver on the market! Just wish i could afford one, i’d best get saving!
Dom!!! Appreciate this a lot! Start saving ! You’ll love it!!! It’ll be worth the wait!
Just bought mine today. Outstanding piece. I'm so happy 😊
Congratulations!!!! Strap or bracelet?!
@@THEMADWATCHCOLLECTOR bracelet. Actually wanted the rubber one on top, but decided to go with the tegimented version of the watch (simply because the base ones were out of stock, lol) An extra rubber band is roughly the price of the steel hardening, so that was that. Great watch. Btw the screwed in lunette is something I have seen on no other watch brand as of today. Correct me if I'm wrong, but this is just awesome.
I have the all black S version. I put it on a genuine Isofrane and love it! One of the most comfortable divers you can get would be my guess. I have had it for 6 months, worn it daily and it doesn't have a mark on it. I recently whacked a door frame and saw a white mark on the bezel. I wiped it off and it was just the door frame paint- The watch was perfect. I wiped off the paint and moved on.
Excellent story my friend! What a tough watch! If I had unlimited money I would definitely get the black one to!!!!
Brilliant. Thank you for featuring my Tag. Nice surprise when opening this video to view. Love the new purchase 🙂👍
You are welcome my friend! Thanks for the tag!!
Amazing review, thanks!
As soon as you said it wears smaller than its dimensions that gave me a real dilemma. Currently have a aquis 39.5. Guess I’ll be researching this watch over the weekend. Great review Russell.
Thanks Robert! Yes fits smaller than the 41 for sure!!!
Great review, as always! Congrats!
Regarding the size, do you think it wears bigger or smaller than the Seiko mini Turtle?
Thank you my friend! I think it wears smaller!
Nice video and very nice watch Russ! Congratulations 🍾
Thank you my friend!
Great review as always man!
Thanks for watching my friend!!
Great review, i am looking at buying the Sinn 105 UTC as my next watch. I think German made watches are often overlooked compared to Swiss made, i have a Stowa and Laco and the quality is excellent.
Absolutely Greg! No one can deny how well Germans do their watches!
I'd love to see a downmarket version of this with a quartz movement. Would be an elite beater.
Get on the Sinn website as their are dive watches with a Quartz movement that are oil filled!!! Very cool!
check out sinn UX
it's exactly what you asked for, it's a temperature resiliant HAQ quartz movement, 500m diver watch
@@CheesyCore That's a great suggestion, but it's a way bigger watch than the U50. For me the U50's appeal is in its size.
Great video, Russ. Soon you will be reaching 10k. Have seen this channel grow : ) Keep the ball rolling.
Mandar!!! Great to hear from you! Thank you!
Excellent review ! Haha love this watch! Gotta get one!!!
You do!!!! Thanks for the appreciation post As always buddy!
Another fantastic review! There really doesn't seem to be anything wrong with that watch. I love the handset as well!
Thank you Jason! It’s definitely a winner!
Great video, great watch, super fun, super cool, have a good one with!!!
Thanks for watching Antoine! One of a kind in my collection;)
I own this watch and this review was right on. Especially sizing the strap. Take your time since there is no going back. The watch is indestructible. A lot of the people don't like the model face but it was the primary reason I bought it. Also, you can buy a strap that matches the red dial. I did that but went back to the original strap.
Lego is spot on for a description. I do like the date window.
Hahahaha oh yes! Maybe why I love it!
Keep up the good work ol’ chum. Great review
Thanks Darren! I’ll try 😆
LOL… I literally nearly cried when you said “I Fking love it”… and “Lego watch”
Hahahahaha! Glad my passion came across and made you laugh, means a lot to me!
This is a beautiful watch, definitely on my wishlist.
Love your reviews my friend 👍
Thanks a lot Roger! Appreciate the support!
Love the U50! Congrats Russell! Great choice, great video!
Thanks Josh! Something very different for me definitely! But it’s stole my horoheart!!! Hope your well
dude your video's are very well produced and entertaining! New sub over here.
You are very kind! Welcome aboard!!!!!!
I friggin love this channel.
Thanks so much for your comment Mark, it’s what keeps me going!
Crazy i didn’t even see the date window till you pointed it out
Hahaha! It’s clever Sinn people!
I'm such a big fan of the U1 and U50 that i actually built a hommage out of Seiko modding parts into a titanium case (they didn't have any old U-boats lying around to recycle). I managed to get a really well AR-ed crystal and it's as if there was no glass. Fascinating piece!
Wow I think I need to see this DOUBLE D!
Congrats. Looks amazing. And top class video
Hi Rusell, what an entertaining review. The WBF-Guy is hilarious. And the U50 fully-tegimented is a little Monster, in every aspect. Yeah, the price hurts, but it's totally worth it.
I own a U1 B LE, 104 St Sa I A and a beloved 657: as a sinner, they simply make me happy.
Cheers Buddy
Thank you so much my friend! You lucky Sinner!!!! Makes me want a third now!!!!
Strapoholic - where do you find these words? Just madness. Great show. I was waiting forward to this review ! The date window is just cool. It is perfectly made and it fits perfectly to the design. You have to have a detailed look to find out that it is actually there !!! Marvelous !! The lume could be better because if I will go out with my red submarine to the deep ocean on sunday, I do not want to miss your streaming show !! ;o)
Thanks for watching Jaro! I’ve definitely fallen for this watch! I currently have no wifi so there will not be a stream this Sunday!
Need to ask for your opinion as you've handled so many watches..Love it love it love it! Love the U50. But I have a Seamaster300P, love that one too but it's chunky and an effort to take out..So the old rule applies, one in-one out. What would you do?
Loved this review. 👍 Keep up the nice work. Loving this watch. Loving too many Sinns though. I wanna buy one. Maybe I'll go white 104 first. Or black 103... 😫
Thank you! Both good choices my friend, can’t go wrong with either!!
Well done mate. Stunning watch
Thank you my friend! Very happy!
You’re reviews are fucking epic! Love your enthusiasm, humor, and superb editing. Great job! The Sinn U50 is on my short list of grail watches.
Have the U50 on bracelet, had it just over a year and before Sinn's price increase. Only one AD's in the US and they are good. Only thing didn't get the tegimented bracelet to me wasn't worth the extra money, I'm not hard on my watch, but I don't baby them either. I like german watches and their styles. Also have a 104 and 556 with a red second dial. I like the rubber strap, may order one some day. Sizing Sinn's bracelets are quite different, requiring two allen wrenches. Great fit. I love the way it looks, people bitch if it seems to copy another watch, people bitch when they do something different. Love your review. Wearing a Nomos Ahoi at the moment.
Thanks Michael! Brands can’t win at times! This is just enough different isn’t it;) thanks for watching!
I got the U50 and got the tegemented bracelet and the rubber band. I wore the metal bracelet for ages, for months, and remembered the rubber band. Tried it on and it's so bloody comfortable! I love it.
That's a stunner and definitely on want list, the hour and minute hand remind me of railway signals and I really like that, so cool, shame it's not got applied markers for that price but I'll forgive it
Definitely agree with that my friend!
absolute banger! looks ace
Bit gutted for you with the +7 tho...
Happy to take that one on the chin! Thanks for watching!!
The U50 is just flat out COOL. I wish that (1) the lume were better and (2) the h-link bracelet had a tool-free micro-adjustment (surely Sinn can engineer a good micro-adjustment mechanism?) Thanks for sharing!
I think it’s inevitable Barry! The clasp on this rubber strap is far superior to the Hlink. Like I said you can un hinge the clasp to the strap and pull out a good 5 mm. The way the clasp designed , it would have to be bigger to accomadate micro holes
That’s a beaut Russ.
I’m seriously looking at the EZM 3
You can’t go wrong with a Sinn!
Oooooh yes! That’s a fantastic dial on that watch! Crown at 9???? Thanks for watching Wally!
@@THEMADWATCHCOLLECTOR
Yes crown at 9. Super minimalist. And as good as it gets with a date window.
Plus some pretty cool tech inside.
Sinn are definitely keepers!
Those hands are very reminiscent of railway semaphore signals, those red and white markers mounted on posts on the railside.
Yes my friend! Agree totally!
Excellent review. It shouts German efficiency. Love the handset and the dial. Excellent 👍🏻
Thanks for watching Richard!!!
Beautiful, I love the mine craft hands. Good purchase 👌👍😎
Hahahahaha absolutely
Simply epic, the review and watch!
Thank you so much for watching Gary! It’s a stunner for sure!!!
Mad and entertaining review. Spot on the +-👍👍👍
Thank you for the support!!
Lume triangle at 12 seems to be a weak point : it fell out off my EZM3 after a few months. Would the hands of the T50 be nicer in the U50? Super review!!!
I’d love to see you do a review of a Doxa Sub 300 and or Doxa Sub 300 Carbon. I love my carbon Doxa so much. I look forward to you doing one one day! Great review of your new Sinn. It’s a killer!
Well in the show I said I was content with dive watches now, but if there was one watch I’d like to handle, it’s a Doxa 300! I will happen… watch this space! Thanks for watching!
@@THEMADWATCHCOLLECTOR oh man, I look forward to that review when it comes out. Thanks for showing off these awesome watches of yours mate. Be well, I look forward to the next vid
Gorgeous tool watch that can be read from a mile away! Looks not for everyone, but it's one of my grails.
Thanks for watching my friend!;)
Very nice watch! My dog had the itching bottom too.
Appreciate you finding the show my friend! It’s a common allergy for sure!!!;)
Nearly purchased this today Russel. But none was in stock the Tegimented bracelet version. So purchased the 556i From Francis & Gaye! Spoke to Ryan told him about your channel and you sent me, he looked at after me. I have it by tomorrow
Thanks Broski ✊🏾
Awesome my friend! Spoke to Ryan today and he said models are sold out till March at the moment!!!!!
@@THEMADWATCHCOLLECTOR Jesus March 😢
These Sinns are not easy to get. I actually kind of like that. Iam not going to see every man & his dog in one😂
I just went thru this vid once more and must say. The Sinn U50 is a real BOND watch to me !
Oh yeah!!!!!!!!
Russ, you not only pulled me over the fence you dragged me around the garden Down the drive and up the road to the dealer!! It’s one more piece that will be mine. Looks even better on wrist than off. Pleased your enjoying it mate, can’t wait for the bb58 comparison. I wonder if it will get as much wrist time now you have this….!?!? Great review as always mate 👌👍
Hahahahahahaha this made chuckle! Well I’m glad I made you like it even more! I cannot fault it! The comparison will be coming soon… can’t say more than that for now 😉
Lovely watch Russ! Enjoy it, it's a stunner. If I ever ended up down at 1000m, the Sinn would be still working......but I don't think I'd be!!🤪 And I might not even make the 500m on your one! +7 spd for a regulated movement isn't great. My worst Seiko on the timegrapher is +7 spd. But still a gorgeous watch!!
@@Grumpy_Cyborg Definitely a surprise Kevin.👍
Thanks Brian! I didn’t mention it in the show, but the watch wasn’t on the TG for that long when filming… but after another 5mins it was down to 5 and I imagine it would have come down even more. Will address in the next live stream 👍🏼
Loving that watch all it's missing is a good quality stab proof vest when i buy one sometime in the distant future and my wife finds the receipt.
Well the trick is not to leave the receipt lying around 😉 thanks for watching!
Great video I love the hands they look like train signals
Cheers Phil!
As always a really fun review. Although i do not own any Sinn, i would like to, just hasn't happened yet. I never considered the U50 or the U 1 , but after your review it has me wanting to look at it a bit harder. I would like to see a years review with this one to see how it wears, BTW how much does it weigh ?
Yeah it’s not a light watch even without the bracelet, I’d say it feels as heavy as a normal steel sports watch with a steel bracelet
haha, I just bought this watch last month. Got an email today that they are shipping it! My 1st luxury watch, REALLY glad that it seems like I made the right choice! This is to celebrate me getting a new job, and getting married this year!
CONGRATULATIONS TWICE Adil!!! This is fantastic! Glad you found the show!
the 104 case is the smallest feeling 41mm case I've come across. Class watch!
You’re so mad in the best way possible! BAHAHA! Now that Sinn is a HANDSOME WATCH!
Thanks WG! You know what they say… it takes one to know one 😉 Congrats again on your partnership with Bob’s Watches!
