Sinn EZM 3F - My Ideal German Tool Watch

Earlier this year I began my search for an everyday tool watch - something that was built well, had a good water rating and would be a watch I could put on my wrist and not worry about at all. Most importantly, I wanted a dial that was clean and easy to read. While the Guinand Flight Engineer ticked all the above boxes and more, I sometimes felt that the case shape wasn't perfect for my small 6.25" wrists. And after reviewing the Sinn 104, I began to imagine what my life would've been if I went with a Sinn 104 styled case instead. I wasn't in love with the 104 dial design and case finish, but I really enjoyed the case dimensions. I was fortunate enough to find an EZM 3F pre-owned and in excellent condition (thanks Mike for making this happen). I've had this watch for over a month now, and I love it.

Nice write up!! Love EZMs!! Is the Hadley Cordura strap the grey color? Went to their website.

The strap in your pictures have a great light grey with slight green color look to it.

Or is it a different color? Is it based on white balancing?

Thanks!

Thanks for reading!

This is the strap from the review - https://www.wearhadley.com/products/...36596066582685

Their stock photographs don't do a great job replicating color, apparently.

Yeah Sinn are are really great brand. I currently own three and intend the earlier EZM3 to be my next addition. What many Rolex owners don't seem to grasp is Sinn are doing what Rolex were doing 50-40 years ago, making tool watches fit for purpose at affordable/sensible prices for people who want a decent watch which is well designed on their wrist. These EZM models are going to be future classics as the first EZM1 has already proved to be and become much sort after.
