The Sinns are very cool
I have a 356, but like the 656 very much.
The 656 could almost pass as an Explorer.

656. Love the numbers and the lack of a bezel.

Great gesture, Sean! I'll send you a PM.

My personal favourite of the three SINN is the ref. 657, btw. The design is admittedly just a bit more busy than the design of the two others but is still very classic, imho.

Just a pity that the sapphire crystals aren't domed and are double AR coated.

I like the 656, elegant. The 356 Flieger UTC is my fave Sinn, hope to get one soon.

657,rotating bezel is nice detail and can be useful sometimes.And that 356 is one serious timepiece!

I love the Sinn brand... Were I to buy another, it'd probably be this one...


Sinn 103 Titanium Ar(gon) gas filled.

I can't say any of the models you are considering just bowl me over. The Frankfurt 6000 is another nice model w/GMT function.



The fit and finish of Sinn watches are quite nice and hold their own against other higher priced brands. I love my 356 Sa and wear it often...

Have been looking at the 656 myself, it does look like a nice piece. In fact all Sinn watches are superbly made, I was lucky to grab this at the end of last year myself and have been well impressed with the quality
