New to me: Sinn 103 LE. Apparently, this was a very small LE of 100 units, sold only in Germany, and designed to celebrate the Cessna 140 (which had a red and navy cabin color scheme).
Lately, I've been wanting a watch that would actually be useful for me at work doing video production. I've been thinking that a chronograph with a countdown bezel would be the best tool for me. And, since I don't have money for a Blancpain Air Command, Sinn looked to have the most options with those features.
I wasn't initially interested in Sinn. I found the overall design of the instrument watches to busy, the logo too whimsical for a tool watch, the syringe hands too anemic. But, the more I looked at the brand, the more I began to respect the brand's devotion to functionality and precision. And, now that I have the watch, I must say I'm really enjoying it.
The case is tall (17mm!) and more polished than I'd like - but it's fun to wear, helpful for timing tasks, and it's currently keeping better time than any other mechanical I own (averaging +1.5 sec a day at the moment!)
Tall case!
Nice lume!
A little too much on the red strap:
I'm thinking I like it best on the nato. Makes it feel more like a tool watch.
