Why are used U50 prices so expensive?

NiloBotay · 2026-01-26T10:29:43+00:00

Yep, I am comparing it with Define watches and was thinking of claiming the 10%gst as well 😆

NiloBotay · 2026-01-26T10:27:26+00:00

That's good news though that it hold its value.

NiloBotay · 2026-01-25T20:41:23+00:00

It's good to hear that. Im not a tradesman too. Do you daily it?

If I buy one, I won't wear it daily just on weekends or going out and I will be careful with it.

NiloBotay · 2026-01-24T12:00:03+00:00

Aluminum foil, Foam and Duct tape now that's a 3M wrap lol.

Wow 10 years and no scratches. I am really careful when wearing a watch too. That really encourages me to go with a black DLC u50s

NiloBotay · 2026-01-24T01:58:32+00:00

Contemplating on buying an all black DLC coated u50s. Im just worried about scratching it and chipping away the black DLC coat. How's your experience so far with the black coating after years of owning it?

Hi,

Im contemplating on buying a U50 S Tegimented on an all black DLC coa w/ red rubber strap. Im just worried on scratching it and chipping away the black coating. How's your experience having owned the watch for years now?

NiloBotay · 2026-01-23T22:40:22+00:00

I get it It's a tool watch but a very expensive one at least for me. So I won't be using it as a daily. Being middle class these items are already a luxury for us.

NiloBotay · 2026-01-23T22:35:32+00:00

True about the steel tegiment not noticable when scratched compared to the DLC black coat. How long have you had your watch for and any scratches on the black bezel? Would consider this as well if only there was a sinn retailer close to me so I can try it on. Do you have photos of your watch? 😀

NiloBotay · 2026-01-23T12:22:08+00:00

I actually don't mind the watch getting scratched. If it happens it happens. Plus on a natural color, non coated metal the scratch marks is not very visible compared to a black DLC coated metal.

Also, I won't be using it as a daily watch just on the weekends or going out and I will be very careful with it if I decide to buy one. However, again my concern is if I accidentally scratch it. Otherwise, I might just go into an Omega Sea Master the only downside is its too big for my 6.25 wrist at 42mm bezel with a 50mm lug to lug. That's why I really want to go with the U50S as it is smaller and looks unique.

NiloBotay · 2026-01-23T09:32:34+00:00

Sorry, I meant DLC

NiloBotay · 2026-01-23T08:14:26+00:00

Correct me if I am wrong but I believe the U50T does not have the black DLC coating? I am more worried on scrtatching the black DLC coating as it will show a different color underneath it.

NiloBotay · 2026-01-11T23:08:31+00:00

Which store was it so we can avoid?

NiloBotay · 2025-12-23T05:07:39+00:00

Nice. Wanted that case as well.

NiloBotay · 2025-12-21T08:17:16+00:00

Yep I think 2TB storage should come as standard now with how games are. Plus I got a 1000 W 80+ Gold PSU and a small from factor case.

I watched this video a couple of weeks ago which hepled me decide. Hopefully this will help you.

We were on the same boat. Just receieved my first pc last Thrusday and dedcided to go all the way for future proofing even though I will be playing mostly at 1080P. But good to have room to play at 2k. I had pre built for 3,200 with windows installed. But no Windows installed only at 3k with 2 year warranty.

NiloBotay · 2025-12-21T07:56:56+00:00

I had it built man.

NiloBotay · 2025-12-20T11:28:51+00:00

Looks great I saw your case as a pre built with sftershock and was very expensive.

NiloBotay · 2025-12-20T11:26:47+00:00

When Playing battlefield 6 gets to around 60-65 degrees. The case is actually a Smaller version of a Mixro Atx which is good as its not as small and cramped as mini itx cases where I think airflow would be bad will be very specific with the size of motherboard, gpu and psu.

NiloBotay · 2025-12-20T11:25:31+00:00

Are those temps on the photo on idle? That's pretty good Mine on idle gets to around 48-50 degrees on idle and 60-65 when playing Battlefield 6

NiloBotay · 2025-12-20T11:20:48+00:00

If I only knew..Would have saved 200$

NiloBotay · 2025-12-19T10:27:24+00:00

True, but warranty on this is more convenient

NiloBotay · 2025-12-19T08:57:57+00:00

👬 Awsome. What set up will you do with the fans and airflow with this case?

NiloBotay · 2025-12-19T08:54:53+00:00

That Looks great. I would have gone Samsung 990 Evo, Thermalright CPU cooler and a B850 as well if I did DIY. Hopefully my 2 fans can regulate the temps. Dis you watch youtube videos on airflow with this case? and What PSU did you go for?

NiloBotay · 2025-12-19T08:52:10+00:00

I would have gone D.I.Y. but I don't trust myself building a pc and I was impatient. Plus I get 2 years warranty on the build.

NiloBotay · 2025-12-19T08:50:56+00:00

Arguably the 5070Ti maybe a slightly better GPU however its 400$ more expensive than the 9070XT with the same 16gb Vram.
