I thought it was sigh-mens, but I heard someone say it say-mens, then someone online said it's see-mens.
So which is it?

Anyone else?

See-menz is a correct "Anglicized" pronounciation. I've heard it on their commercials. Zee-menz is also correct, because that's how a German would say it. But how many people prounounce Ericksson the exact Swedish way that's supposed to be pronounced (probably Ericks-zohn)???
