FS: Sinn 8826 Ti from Helmut Sinn's Collection

I am facing facts that my collection has gotten too big and that I need to pare down.

SOLD here is a very unique watch that will interest Sinn collectors everywhere. A couple years ago Helmut Sinn's personal watch collection was sold, and I bought this watch from an MWR member who had bought it directly from Herr Sinn's collection a few months before.

The watch has a nicely decorated ETA 2893 variant and a matching titanium bracelet. It runs fine and with no issues. The crown screws down fine. The hands and lume plots have a lovely aged tritium look. It's a smaller watch, I think about 36 mm, and looks great on the bracelet.

I have it on a shell cordovan NATO style strap (surprised?) that will also come with it. I have a non-original Sinn box for it, that I have pressed into service, but there are no cards or papers.

The provenance to Helmut Sinn consists of several communique from the original seller to the original buyer. I will provide all this, of course.

Happy to provide other photos for anyone interested.

$850 USD (now SOLD) shipped and PayPaled in the US. International shipping at cost.

Thanks for looking,

Myron

A couple additional details on this cool watch. Case diameter without crown is 36 mm, and with crown 38 mm. I'd love to see this watch go to a good home!

Thanks all,

Myron

Does it come with the Sinn helmet too?

I think they wore leather "helmets" in Helmut's pilot days anyway! ;-)
