Sinn UX-T EZM 2 B Hydro S Black Fully Tegimented on H-Link Bracelet

This watch is far more than simply a black version of the standard Sinn UX. When Sinn first introduced the U Diver's Series several years ago, the most requested feature was an all Tegimented watch (the standard U models feature a Tegimented bezel).

The Sinn UX-T EZM 2 B Hydro S Black Fully Tegimented on H-Link Bracelet is constructed from the same steel that is used on the outer hull of submarines. The steel was procured by Sinn from a steel supplier to Emden GmbH, one of Germany’s North Sea shipbuilding yards who construct submarines from the very same steel.  This special steel is also amagnetic which means that is does not have magnetic properties and cannot itself become magnetized.  The watch movement itself is protected from magnetic fields up to 4,800 A/m.

Next, the Sinn UX-T EZM 2 B Hydro S Black Fully Tegimented on H-Link Bracelet features a completely Tegimented case, bezel, crown and case back. Standard steel used by most watch companies has a hardness of between 200 and 240 HV (Hardness Vickers is a common scale used to measure material hardness). The Tegiment layer on this watch in combination with the DLC coating has a hardness in excess of 2,000 Vickers which is more than nine times harder than standard steel.



Technology

Unlike the Sinn U1 and Sinn U2, the Sinn UX-T EZM 2 B S Hydro Black Fully Tegimented on H-Link Bracelet features a quartz movement rather than a mechanical movement.

By using this type of movement, Sinn is able to fill the watch with oil, which has the double affect of greatly enhancing the readability of the dial and time from any angle (including under water), and increasing the water resistance of the watch even at great depths.

The Sinn UX-T EZM 2 B Hydro S Black Fully Tegimented on H-Link Bracelet is covered with a thick sapphire crystal for extreme protection. This sapphire crystal features a special anti-reflective coating that is scratch resistant - the coating itself has been hardened to 1,800 HV.

The uni-directional ratchet operated rotating bezel is also milled from this submarine steel. The indices are machined directly into the bezel without the use of bezel inserts, which can corrode or come loose at deep depths.


This watch is designed for operation in extreme temperature variations - it operates in temperatures between -20° Celsius to +60° Celsius. The movement is water resistant to 5,000 meters, and the case is pressure tested to a diving depth of 12,000 meters as certified by Germanischer Lloyd in Hamburg.

Matte black dial with date at 3, Super Luminova on hands and markers, and white seconds hand complete the design. Other features include sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating.

This watch is fitted with a Sinn black DLC fully Tegimented bracelet.
