New Arrival

Received a package today that I had to sign for. Wonder what it is?






Hmmmm










Looks like some sort of black box.






Wow, it's heavy.




The plot thickens.







The inner box








And here she is!!








Finally, we have a German made Sinn U2. 2000meters water ressistant, with a second time zone function. Extra SS solid end link bracelet and extra rubber strap and deployment clasp.






Are there any Sinners on this forum?



Last photo from the web.

Retail on a rubber strap is US$2,160. $2340 on the Stainless Steel bracelet. Bracelet by itself will set you back $250. I believe they are a little cheaper in Germany. There is only one US AD.

Very nice! I like how it comes with the bracelet/strap option. Are they easy to switch out?

Sinn... German right???

Very easy. The lugs have holes and the watch comes with a tool for changing the straps.

Yes, it is German.

I don't have any German brands yet, but I'd love to have a Lange and Sohne. Also like Glashutte Originals too. Are you familiar with Limes (pronounced Lee-mess)? That is an affordable German brand with some very good looking models.

Never looked at Sinn before, but after seeing yours, I'm definitely going to take a closer look.

That looks a great watch Kal. I believe they are made from German U-Boat steel. Is the watch heavy?

Is sure is heavier than my sub. The SS bracelet feels solid and has some weight to it.
