Yeah. Sinn a truly male piece of horology. Knifes and mechanical watches are probably the coolest things to collect. They won't make you more man. They don't make your balls bigger, decisions smarter, muscles harder, leadership more obvious or your appeal sexier but they kinda make you feel the way it all happend ;)

MV haha well said. I think being punctual is an integral part of leadership and watches 100% contribute to that.

1🤯🤯% I've been wearing a sunburst grey 104i St Sa for 1 yr. now and TBH never noticed the bigger even numbers on the bezel. Now that it's been pointed out, I cannot un-see it. The first four mins of this video have me questioning my whole existence 🤷🏼 I got my 556i RS literally TODAY, and now am already thirsting for that white 104 🤤💸

I just unboxed my new Sinn 104 white dial matte finish today. I just love it. I didn't notice the font change on the bezel until you pointed it out. I just love the instant day/date change. I've not had any watch up until now that did that. Stunning watch, can't stop staring at it.

Hi Steve, just “surfing about Sinn watches “105 UTC model” and there’s not much of a reviews about that model ! Then I saw this review about the 104 Sinn white dial ( have the black dial 💯 🔝) and I went and listened to the man who’s making the review so I missed the hat that the out side of the cristal is AR coating and if you are not careful with your Sinn it will get “scratches” in the AR outside coating just a little one ☝️ to you mate 😎, by the way like your review a lot very concise and sharp no fancy bla bla bla 👍, all I’ve to say is wish I’ve bought a Sinn 5/6 years ago ! For sure would have the Sinn kind of “Navitimer” instead of my Longines hydroconquest Chrono, plus bought the UTC instead of another Certina DS Action Powermatic 80 and then the new U1 model sandblasted grey version instead of my Squale 50 Atmos ! The others in my humble collection will be very much frustrating about this cool and fantastic brand ! All the best with your 104 Sinn ! Wish you all the best with your new Sinn ! 🙌

I like the green lume. I think it adds color to the dial. I have the black dial and my Sinn is one of the big three favorites in my collection along with an Oris Aquis and a Seiko SBDC109. The dive bezel on my Seiko "Willard" aligns perfectly by the way.

House RN I can’t disagree with you there at all. The black dial is such a clean, classic timepiece that is never the wrong choice for any event. I’ve heard great things about the Willard, too. How is the aquis?

@stuartcole4845 3 жыл бұрын

I’ve been really keen on adding a Sinn to my collection too and it also could pretty much be a one watch collection - the Sinn 556 A (A for Arabic numerals), giving it a bit of an Explorer vibe, plus with the smaller case size. What’s also amazing about these watches is how much the two bracelet options completely change the character of the watch. The brushed H link makes it look totally like a tool or instrument, yet you add this fine bracelet and it dresses it up enough to be a lot more versatile.

No doubt, a great watch. My bezel/chapter ring is slightly off. Like you, I bought mine used. I need to find out if something like that is covered under warranty. Otherwise, once my OCD kicks into high gear, the watch will have to go. Then the search begins anew... again.

Wow I have never heard of that issue. Definitely find out if they can do something about that. I would at least contact WatchBuys.com, their US Authorized dealer who is super helpful with questions.

I'll say save the money to get the Sinn and you will avoid what I did - going through several microbrands and cheaper Seikos/Hamiltons and taking a loss in every trade or sale, this Sinn would have saved me more money in the long run lol.

You know, Arik, I totally relate to your feeling. I almost wish I had not one other watch sometimes so this Sinn could get the wrist time it deserves and I know I’d be completely grateful and satisfied. However, our curiosity gets the best of us at times. That’s a gorgeous piece and with that rally strap I’d love to see what it looks like. Feel free to email a picture to knifeandwatch@gmail.com

I bought the sinn 104 several years ago and love it. I’m not a collector and wear this daily. It definitely has a break in period - nothing odd, but the accuracy improved after about a month. My only gripe is that it’s spring does not store much more than 24 hours. So i have to keep it wound or reset if I don’t wear it over a weekend.
