    Hello Everyone!

    I am putting up my Sinn 556i for sale. Please read entire listing and view pictures because they are part of the description. Photos in listing were taken today. Photos in comments are from other times.

    This watch is one of the best entry level/affordable watches in my opinion. It is extremely versatile, you can wear it as your tool watch, your everyday wearer, or even a dress watch with the right strap. I purchased this watch on Omega Forums earlier this year. This was my first taste of Sinn and I immediately knew I needed more. I am selling this to fund my purchase of a Sinn 356 Flieger chronograph.

    I wore this watch regularly for a few weeks. A few months after it developed a small problem with winding. As I would turn the crown it would slip, eventually slipping about 1/4 of the way around and making an audible click. An unusual problem I had not experienced before. It was still under warranty, so I sent it back to Sinn and waited. It returned the other day from warranty repair. It winds and sets very smoothly and it is keeping time at +4s/d dial up. All paperwork from service will be provided, and corresponding emails will be provided if the buyer wishes.

    Specs:
    Company: Sinn
    Model: 556i
    Movement: ETA 2824-2
    Dial: Glossy black, with green luminescent hands and markers
    Case: Stainless Steel brushed
    -38.5mm across excluding crown
    -45.7mm Lug tip to lug tip
    Lug Width: 20mm
    Thickness: 11mm
    Crown: Screw down
    Crystal: Sapphire with AR coating

    Condition:
    Pre-owned, I am at least the 3rd owner. Minor scratches on case, and crystal. One longer scratch on 9 o’clock side of case only noticeable if looking for it in indirect lighting. Scratches on crystal are only visible in strong reflective lighting. See photos that emphasize scratches.

    Comes with original double box, paperwork, warranty cards (just used), two full stitched leather Sinn straps with Sinn buckle(used gently by previous owners), Sinn spring bar tool. I am also including an Admiralty Grey Toxic Natos NATO strap.

    I am asking $830 USD shipped CONUS (internationally we will split shipping cost) with payment via Paypal gift. No returns please as this is funding my next purchase.

    I have a few references from previous deals on OF and can provide them if requested. I am not a dealer, I only sell watches to fund more watches for my own enjoyment.

    Bump with a note (and title edit to include info). Due to the repair performed by Sinn the warranty has been extended by an additional 2 years (July 2019).

    Sometimes timing is not our friend. Outstanding watch from an A+ seller with a 2 yr warranty???

    There have been so many times over the past few years where I would have insta-bought this.

    GLWS!!!!

    Thank you guys for the kind words.

    Bump with an addition. I am willing to include a 20mm black rubber strap if a buyer would like it.
