Gorgeous new Sinn 103 LE

Post by CGSshorty » Wed Aug 19, 2015 7:11 am

This 103a Sa B is fantastic. I wish I had some spare cash.

Looks terrific, why didn't they use blue date/day?

They never use custom date wheel colors. I guess it comes down to cost.

I don't know, with white sub dials I think I'd take white day/date over non-matching black.
Of course on the wrist you probably can't even tell what color day/date is.

Blue > White > black, though I'm wearing my blue tuna and that black date wheel is hardly noticeable IRL.

It was announced by Sinn about an hour ago. Not sold out, they don't have any to sell yet.

That's a common gripe with the 103. I don't mind because I rarely use them.

That's very nice, although I don't like a black date wheel either, I'd prefer white since it'd at least match something. I do miss having a Sinn though, particularly a 103.

good looking and price seems "reasonable" or at least "justifiable", too

Chris, when is your U1 coming out?
Is it going to be sort of U212 in U1 body? Which would be fantastic :)

It will hopefully be out around November or December. You'll have to wait and see.

That's gorgeous. I'm partial to the acrylic 103s, but I love that blue.

I have no need at all for this watch and I'm really tempted to get one.

Is there any blue dial watch that looks worse than the Tudor?

Wow. :excited:
Always had a thing for the Arktis, but this trumps it IMO.
Matching date wheel would have been a nice touch - Timeless got this so right with their LE Club - but overall, this is a stunner.

Thanks for the link, Chris. :cheers:





Edit: could also live without the words 'minuten' and 'stunden' appearing on the chrono subdials. :shrug:
