New Sinn 103 St

[jim3]

I wanted to get a decent mechanical chrono to keep and narrowed it down to a Sinn 103 a long time ago - finally got round to buying it.
This is the St model, with high domed acrylic glass and anodised friction pilot's bezel.
I love it - perfect size for me (41 mm diameter) and the acrylic is absolutely gorgeous. I've only owned sapphire glass dive watches previously and I was initially concerned about the scratch potential of acrylic. However, the depth and distortion effect is well worth having to polywatch it occasionally. Overall it has a vintage look (without being too contrived) but with reliable mechanicals (Valjoux 7750). A leather strap dresses it up and it goes under a cuff easily (most of the 15.5 mm height is the domed acrylic).

Pondered one of these for a while but ended up with a Chrono Superocean as I already have an 856S. Nice choice.

Good choice OP Normally I prefer Damasko over Sinn, but the 103 St looks great!

They look incredibly awkward on you - I can't tell if your wrists are too small for them or if you're just wearing them slightly unusually distal.

Be sure to let me know if you manage to come to a conclusion. I'll wait with bated breath.

The 103 range is great, and you don't get your pants pulled down on price. One of the wiser watch choices.

Lovely. The thickness puts me off having one, but they do look very nice.

Rest assured Jim3 for my 2 pennith it's the fact you have taken 4 shot's and not one decent photo rather than anything wrong with the watch ... or wrist
