·My Sinn EZM1 on a Di-Modell Chronissimo strap. I find this far more practical than the OEM titanium bracelet which I also want to preserve. Sinn sell a "Chronissimo" strap, at least they did a couple of years ago, which looked to be a re-badged Di-Modell with the only difference of any significance being the Sinn name on the buckle. I bought one but it was too long which is why I'm on the Di-Modell. Highly recommend this strap whether from Sinn or Di-Modell.
Another shot showing more of the strap...
... and here's my EZM1.1 on a red Hirsch Ayrton performance strap. Sinn's OEM rubber strap is too heavy for me, this is light & strong, rinses easily and the red on the strap matches the red elements on the dial very well.

·Here is a one for the Sinn fans, which I am owing a nice Tigmented 756 chronograph.
The NASM holds the Sinn watch worn by Alan Eustace that he wore during his record breaking free fall jump from 25 miles lasting 15 minutes. His watch can be seen here in the NASM online collection.
I had the great opportunity to spend two hours with the curator of one of the NASM collections this past week and as we walked the floor she pointed out Alan Eustace's free fall suit along with his Sinn watch.
Here is his watch as seen online in the NASM collection.
Here is the suit I photographed yesterday and the watch on display.
Here is Alan Eustace's record setting jump for those not familiar with is accomplishment.

·Very interesting story, thank you. The Sinn website mentions that the decision to use a Sinn was made by Alan Eustace's engineering team and Sinn only found out about it after it was all over.

··Nowhere near as grumpy as he used to be...what's the pricing on something like this?
Currently the tooling for the original Brietling 806 is owned by Chronotime.ch which is another story.
The current Navitimer 01 is larger and not as pretty in my eyes as the dial is different from an 806.
They are interesting as they are true Navitimers but many “watch” guys assume they are clones. But they are great if you don’t want to spend money on a perfect vintage 806 and want a more modern piece at a slightly lower price.

i perfect vintage 806 is like seeing a tasmanian tiger.
i think the 806's are underpriced at 3-5k imo

··Nowhere near as grumpy as he used to be...@sxl2004 yours is an 18 jewel marked 17 right?
The jewel is in this thread.

Speedies from 88ish also had the extra jewel but marked 17 on the bridge.
