Dutchy Posted September 2, 2008 Report Posted September 2, 2008 I'm personally not a fan of Sinn, but this is a nice watch
Ztech Posted September 2, 2008 Report Posted September 2, 2008 Sinn's are very nice watches. Congrats!
cdv Posted September 2, 2008 Report Posted September 2, 2008 Simple, easy to read and clean lines. Very Nice!
Stephane Posted September 2, 2008 Report Posted September 2, 2008 Damn, that is a great looking watch Chad. Enjoy it
RobbieG Posted September 2, 2008 Report Posted September 2, 2008 Nice. I have a 757 myself. The tegimented steel is really cool. Great ETA based watches for the money. Some people find the dials to me busy with all the white ticks but I think what they offer in uniqueness makes up for it. Until B&R, nothing really looked like a Sinn. Many Bell & Ross fans are unaware of their history and early partnership with Sinn which is of course very obvious when considering the dial similarities. I for one am not a B&R fan mostly because I feel the square design serves no purpose and is mostly uncomfortable though I'm sure many would disagree. I just feel there are much better choices if you want a large aviators watch. Anyway, Sinn does the trick in that department for sure and for a fair price. Enjoy it!
FxrAndy Posted September 2, 2008 Report Posted September 2, 2008 Nice but i would miss the running seconds. questions a. What is the gloss logo on the dial b. What is the drilling on the lug for?
Guest avitt Posted September 2, 2008 Report Posted September 2, 2008 Much love! Let me know if you want me to DLC coat that baby for you (...it would look great).
fotoman Posted September 2, 2008 Report Posted September 2, 2008 RRRRRRRRR i want a sinn take some more photos - more wrist shots please what is the case size on that one, i always thought they were smaller
RobbieG Posted September 2, 2008 Report Posted September 2, 2008 I believe Chad's is a 756 which is 40MM. My 757 is basically the same watch but with a rotating bezel. That watch the same dial size so the bezel just adds to the size outside the dial in a pure sense that way. The bezel version is 43MM.
chad Posted September 2, 2008 Author Report Posted September 2, 2008 They are smaller but the case is nice and thick. I would say they fit a bit like an IWC 3717
chad Posted September 2, 2008 Author Report Posted September 2, 2008 Here is a wrist shot comparison. I had to rotate my wrist on the pam shot otherwise the light reflected too badly.
TeeJay Posted September 2, 2008 Report Posted September 2, 2008 Awesome watch This might sound crazy, but I think it would look great on a NATO strap
Guest avitt Posted September 2, 2008 Report Posted September 2, 2008 ...It would also look pretty hot on a bead-blasted mesh.
chad Posted September 3, 2008 Author Report Posted September 3, 2008 One of my friends took it off my hands to wear for the evening. He loved it! I might offer a very good trade offer for anyone with the watches in my signature in the coming days with a VERY low trade value(hundreds under typical used value) on my watch towards any of those pieces plus cash depending on the offer. Well see.......(maybe I can cure my pam sickness and just enjoy the gen though)
Corgi Posted September 3, 2008 Report Posted September 3, 2008 The lume on this must be out of control....
ubiquitous Posted September 3, 2008 Report Posted September 3, 2008 One of my faves! Much love and respect for Sinn. Great watches and value, no question.
jmt Posted September 3, 2008 Report Posted September 3, 2008 Damn, that is a great looking watch Chad. Enjoy it Yeah, it is. Sinn makes a great watch for the price.
fotoman Posted September 3, 2008 Report Posted September 3, 2008 Here is a wrist shot comparison. I had to rotate my wrist on the pam shot otherwise the light reflected too badly. sweet - that is very helpful i like this model - i think the "Base' version with the big seconds and no subdials i think is 38mm thats the one i was thinking was small. i'd lve it, if they made that base or a UTC in a 42mm i've actually wondered why sinn hasn't been repped yet - when lots of other random brands are repped
chad Posted September 4, 2008 Author Report Posted September 4, 2008 For those that have followed the thread. I am going to post this on sales corner as a trade as soon as I can for the items listed in my signature or possibly another heavily modded pam. I am going to require a trade in value which is 300-500 less than the used market market price of this watch and over 1000 from the new price. Seems crazy I know but I would really like to get a hold of some of the pieces in my signature. A little advance notice for any sinn fans. sweet - that is very helpful i like this model - i think the "Base' version with the big seconds and no subdials i think is 38mm thats the one i was thinking was small. i'd lve it, if they made that base or a UTC in a 42mm i've actually wondered why sinn hasn't been repped yet - when lots of other random brands are repped
takashi Posted September 5, 2008 Report Posted September 5, 2008 Another wristshot from me: Stock photo: Lume is not that crazy though (C1 instead of C3 like on Panerai): The glossy mark on the dial is an antimagnetic symbol. Nice watch, wear it in good health. I regretted selling this piece, especially now the price has gone up a lot. Lack of running second can be a drawback for many.
