Sinn 903 ST II
Anyone in here have this? Or any experience with this piece. What are you guys’ general thoughts about Sinn pieces? I’m in Dublin right now and came across a Sinn AD. To me it seems they are pretty legit in their quality and craftsmanship. All I know is the general information I see on YouTube with the usual YouTube suspects. They ask seem to praise the brand. I’m really digging this piece.

Big fan of Sinn since purchasing this 757 UTC on Helmut Sinn's 100th birthday. Love that reference as well, although I don't know much about it. I think Sinn & Breitling had some sort of alliance that allowed Sinn to produce the Navitimer styled chronographs for a certain period of time.
Sinn has lots of great tech and mine is built like a tank. Wore it on last year's trip thru Germany. dP

My understanding is Sinn purchased the rights to the Navitimer design from Breitling and now Breitling licenses it back from them. I have been researching this specific model for some time and really like it. I missed a blue dial version on eBay for a significant discount from a legitimate seller. Sinn is a great brand according to almost everything I read and I wish I had access to an AD so I could go hands on with some of the models but I do not. If it works for you why not pick it up? The secondary market in these watches is brisk so if it did not work I think it would be easy to move along. Let us know what you decide.

I own two Sinns. Very nice watches!The American importer has a road show in New York City every winter. The best place to handle them. 1 William, as I recall, the importer is in NC. If you are nearby, they may show watches at their HQ. Google them.

The only US AD and service center for Sinn is Watchbuys, located in PA.

There’s a watch show here in NYC next weekend. I wonder if they’ll be there. I’m going anyway so it would be nice if they were
