In person, the white is a crisp, clean white counterpoised to the black bezel. In my iPhone picture, the dial is a little yellow and creamy due to the lighting. Just got this new release today and I think that it looks sharp for an affordable (for me) price. Thank you for the compliments so far!

The days of the week can be set in German, also, which is cool.

Ahh... You're a man of excellant taste and know the rarity of 3 hand model day-date Flieger White dials among watch collectors.

And they are manufactured by only a handful of Swiss and German brands apart from Hamilton and Bremont. Choosing the tradisional black dial is easy but opting for the white is something else. Well done Sir !

Yes. On a lot of watches there is an option of two languages on the day function. I have a Ball that has English and Spanish.

Great watch OP!!

Some Seikos allow for English or Japanese. Thank God it's Freitag!

Very nice.

Hard to beat a Sinn - good looks, but functional, technical & rock-solid also, and at a fair price.

I sometimes think I could quite happily only add German watches to the collection for the foreseeable future - they offer so much variety & impressive technical capability, and value for money.

I have a Stowa Marine, and under future consideration is a NOMOS Tangente, or a technical Pilot's Chronograph from Sinn or Damasko. The grail would be something from A Lange & Sohne...

Congrats on the new Sinn! Really enjoy my 757 UTC.


Speaking of lume & Ball, I also have an Aero GMT. Both make great travel watches.

I love my Patek, Rolexes, IWC,etc. But I get a kick out of these more fairly priced, somewhat off the radar brands like Sinn. Plus, I am going to learn the days of the week in German. Thanks for looking! Nice Sinn and Ball, Dan! Like the GMT function.

The day and date change a few minutes before midnight. Is that common? This watch has a decorated Selitta movement. I'm not complaining. This is a great watch and even better for the price point.
