Has anyone owned this?

[andrema]

I kinda dig it...

[deepcdvr]

Haven't had it - does the bezel rotate?

Great looking piece

That's nice.

[CGSshorty]

This is better.

Nice. Never seen that variant before.

The bezel does not rotate.

Here's the info from the Sinn archive: http://www.sinn.de/mobile/en/Modell/303_Silver_12.htm

Not seen it before. Would I own it - yes.

Very Daytona-ish. I like it. I wish the crown were a little smaller, especially when you compare it to the pushers.

That is why I like the screw in pushers of the 103. They are a little bit of an inconvenience, but they look more balanced with the crown.

I like it but would prefer larger pushers (non screw down) and a panda dial.

Wow never seen those but I really like them!

I have seen it. I have not owned it, but the 103, 203, 303, 356, 358, even the 104 are all so similar, I just don't really look at them anymore - since I have the 103 St Sa Ar UTC and the 203 Arktis. The myriad of "different" watches in those lines just don't...differ enough, to consider picking up any more although the Titanium models are intriguing.

But all those mildly differentiated pieces do create a nice marketing device.

It's sorta like the American cars of the 60's and 70's. Take for example, the GM B sedan platform - you had the Chevy Chevelle/Malibu, Buick Skylark, Oldsmobile Cutlass and Pontiac Tempest/LeMans. They were all very similar, and they all had a range of packages up through the Chevelle SS, Buick GSX, Olds 442, and Pontiac GTO...but other than a few mechanical differences, everything was cosmetic. The bones were the same. So you picked the one, when fully kitted as you liked it, that best fit you.

Sorta like Baskin Robbins with their 31 flavors. As long as you're buying their stuff, they don't care which flavor you like...it's all friggin ice cream.

That's how I see all these 103, 203, 303, etc lines of Sinn watches. Something for everyone but under the skin, they are basically the same. So once you find the one or two that fit you, the others just don't fill any unmet needs or voids.

This is the reason Sinn discontinued the 303 years ago, and more recently the 203. There weren't enough difference among the 3 to warrant having all of them in the lineup, but the slight differences in the bezels meant 3 distinct cases needed to be made. Factor in titanium and steel, and you have way too many variables from a manufacturing standpoint.
