How accurate is the Sinn U1 Black?

Looking to purchase a Sinn soon and this one caught my eye.

however does anyone owns one and can chime in on the rep versus the gen?

The biggest tell is that the rep grey is much lighter than gen. The gen gives a very stealthy look than that of the rep. Also the rep has wrong white minute markers. Go for the regular U1, which is very very accurate.

The bezel triangle is awful..... Looks like white painted saran wrap..... That said, i have a u1 and a u2 and love it. The latter relumed by vac.

Thanks bro for the link and info.indeed comparing the gen to the rep, seems like at 1 glance can tell the flaws.

Yup, heard about that too! I used to own a rep U2 but with the wrong capsule @6. Is the current U2 version fixed already?
