This review will tell you how it’s going
I wear this watch 24/7, and basically never take it off
I just started to pay attention to mechanical watches, i'm looking for an easy upkeep mechanical watch, thats bulletproof and accurate I love the way sinn watches look, the understated appeal grows on me each day, and i love the function over form concept I've been told that sinn used to be a. This familiar practice eventually led sinn to heuer's 1550 sg bundeswehr
Few sinn watch fans may know about the relationship between sinn and the bundeswehr, germany's armed forces in the 1980's Helmut sinn, the company's founder, purchased the german army's inventory of decommissioned and phased out heuer 1550 sg watches and service parts. The sinn 903 is a worthy successor to the original navitimer, has an interesting history how it was created when the original breitling company went out of business, and has a superior water resistance, but a slightly more cumbersome circular slide rule than the navitimer. I've been eyeing sinn for quite a while and finally picked up an 856 for it's smaller 40mm case size as well as it's clean and simple design
Here are some quick observations and a few copy/pastes from the sinn website
I've found that i prefer a smaller watch (by today's standards. Will sinn send parts to independent watchmakers, or is rgm the only game in town I don’t want to get involved in international shipping for service Can anyone tell me about recent experiences with rgm
What service was provided on what model How much did it cost What was the turnaround time? So as planned, i was able to visit sinn showroom today and after taking care few other things i’m back at the hotel
First and foremost, the new location, layout, displays and on the floor team were great
Unfortunately, it was clear from my interaction through the visit that sinn is falling a victim of its own success and customers service is not what i expected based on my first visit to. Looking for aftermarket bracelet options for the 556 mocha Currently on the sinn fine link but would prefer other options Any leads would be appreciated
I'm uk based if that helps. Sinn is the place for tool watches, so busy tends to be their sweet spot (bezels, chronographs+)
