Got it too. About 1k
I love it but would prefer 40-41mm.
38.5 is a tad small.

Super clean, I dig it!
Re: Sinn 556 Weiss
Too small. Black lume seems odd, lume dial better. Nice looking though.

Re: Sinn 556 Weiss
It's a great looking watch. I'd wear a larger model.

Also new at WatchBuys, the Hanhart Primus. I really like this, but it's probably not for everyone.

I'd be in if it was a lume dial. I think the size is appropriate for the style.

Dig the look. Not a consideration at that size, though.

Kinda like it but agree the size on the 556/656 watches is a little smaller than I'd like. Would be more interested in a weiss 856.

I'm not sure. Some of those Damasko dials looked like ass, with their green tint.hoppyjr wrote:Too small. Black lume seems odd, lume dial better. Nice looking though.
I like this very much.

Never been a fan of the lume dial. This is hot.

Re: Sinn 556 Weiss
I got the email too.
I posted on a WUS thread asking which Sinn we would like to see next.
Of course, I posted asking for a reedition of a U1 white dial non luminous, but with regular bead blasted SS case.
Someone posted that they wanted to see a white dial, non luminous 556.
Lo and behold, I get the email stating that a white dial 556 will be available for reservation a couple days later, .
Here is the late Archimede. The size of 42mm and the black case made it too specialized as a watch for me. It was a fun watch and had it for at least 2 years. I used it also under a shirt(tuxedo) and although it looked okay, it wasn't 100%.
This Sinn has all the components to my liking including the 38.5mm size and case finish.

Man, reading Valmak's old thread and seeing his wrist pics pushed me over the cusp, .
In other words......incoming,

I do like this one, though. The difference between the 38.5 and 40 in person is almost negligible, IMHO.
