Just looks like a..... only joking wink

Like the case, Like the bezel but not keen on the dial or hands, they look like they were designed on a Spectrum 48K!

A touch under £2k.

Was the original U1 about £1k when it came out? Their prices have been going up and up, but it seems inevitable with inflation etc.

I'd happily pay £2k for one. It's quite an awkward price point in that there's stuff a bit cheaper that is still really nice and stuff a bit more expensive that is just as nice.

It's a bit of a classic design, I think, so they've got endless colour schemes to play with.

I know that I've gone on record as saying that faux aged lume isn't quite my thing, however for every rule there's an exception. All black plus fully tegimented equals like. Lots of like.

Looking at that I just think "minecraft".

It is rather nice though...

I much prefer the original myself. Your correct too, the price seems to have doubled!

I'm not a huge fan of the U1 (I don't like the Lego hands).

I like this is black, but not the baby poo lume...

Not bad, looks very much like some of the black special editions they've done for shops in Japan. Still wouldn't mind owning an all black U1 at some point.

Love my U1, wear it as an everyday. Been wanting a black watch for sometime. Have bought one of these from Neil at Chronomaster. A couple of weeks for delivery, due to a delay on the bracelet.

As others have said, I really can't get on with those hands. Did enjoy the Minecraft allusion though - spot on!
