      From my understanding there is no such thing as a basic Sinn, you are very fortunate to have one on the wrist. I highly suggest going to thier website and ordering a free catalog it's very impressive basically it is a hard case book. Very nice.

      @@BoleDaPole Yea maybe word 'basic' was unfortunate, but what I meant its one of their cheapest model, with Sellita SW200, three hander and date (no advanced complications), without Tegiment, oil inside etc. Still a great watch but 'basic' when compared to some of their other products.

    Sinn are great. Hanhart as well. My Hanhart 417ES Flyback is a bit less than +2spd.
    I really like the Sinn 103 St Chronograph.
    German Watches are what I prefer.
    Adjusted in the positive is always better than the negative in my opinion. It also makes it easier to set correct time; pull out the crown, wait for time to catch up to you, press the crown in.

      @@datboytalkinrungotellem I bought mine separately since it wasn’t available for the 356 specifically and watch buys has rewards so i used them towards the clasp. It’s fully milled and is the same length as the original clasp so i got a perfect fit. It’s only a little thicker because of the mechanism. OEM parts are always going to bring a premium but the quality and overall price of the watch is worth it imo. Also, Steel Reef has an adjustable link for $140 which would serve a similar purpose but I wanted the Sinn clasp.

With the clasp, it’s still a lot less than any other day-date, automatic chronograph on the market and Sinns have probably the best resale so if I need to sell it or fall out of love I can get my money back no problem.

    Sinn is a great brand with really credible watch credentials. They're not blingy, they're not show ponies; they are the definition of what a tool watch should be. I don't have one but I want one. I wouldn't have my case repolished, I'd want it to show signs of wear, that's par for the course I feel.

    If you are a real watch collector, you are not bothered about residual value. Therefore you are spending a lot. the true watch collector is often somebody who has the same value in spending as someone who has two Rolex watches.

    Was moments from buying the 556 I (no date) with the Selita SW200-1 movement, before realising (thanks to the online manual) that Sinn install the date movement and gift the owner with a ghost position on crown. Selita manufacture a no-date version of the SW200. Once I realised this was a corner they were cutting I couldn’t see past it. For all the theatre of showcasing components, measuring tools and white coats - at the end of the day they’ve made a business decision on a €1300 + VAT watch that I simply can’t get behind.

      Nobody is 'being late' so that's a nonsense for a start.
      He said its rarely +6 (the average of +1- +11) but I would say that happens a fair bit (its the average!).
      The average of COSC is +2. COSC at its worse is Sinn's average.
      Just seems better to have as short a range and an average nearer to zero IMO.
