I ordered a replacement bracelet for my new Sinn 757 UTC from the only US AD - Watchbuys - over the holiday weekend. They shipped it Tuesday morning via FedEx and it arrived this morning. Very quick in my opinion for standard shipping. It was packaged exceedingly well. They had it in serious bubble wrap inside a very solid box. Also, Sinn apparently sends all bracelets out in their boxes with formed foam inserts and include a Sinn branded springbar tool, springbars, and allen wrenches for the screws. Very nice, particularly in comparison to both Omega and Fortis with whom I have dealt before for bracelets. Both send their new bracelets out in flimsy plastic sleeves without anything else. Frankly, the box the bracelet came in and the fitted foam are nicer than many watch boxes I've got
Also, I noticed something and wanted to run it past folks here. The old one looked like this:
which is the official Watchbuys photo of the 757/857 Tegimented Bracelet
My new one looks like this:
Looks to me like they have added the Tegimented Symbol to the clasp
Is this new or is it something that has been seen before?
Wrote to Watchbuys about this and they responded, thanks Rob, with:
"Sinn has developed a logo for the Tegiment process that they are now using on some of their products that feature that technology."
So, apparenty the logo usage on items is new and not completely through the line yet.
Oh, and while I was ordering from WatchBuys anyway............
just can't wear the hat on trips to Ireland
