Any predictions? What are you hoping for?

It’s already been done, so certainly not hopeless.

Well you've said before that since they made it for Cronos as a LTD edition they'll never do it again.

I’m looking at picking up a 144 but I’m waiting to see what comes out.

It will never be identical to that watch.

Oh I don't want it to be, just a regular SS with SDR bezel will be just fine. Basically U212 in 44 case

- A 358 with DIAPAL dial but the standard escapement and no GMT hand.

- A reverse panda 358 with no GMT hand.

I would like to say nothing, I hope they suck hard because I don’t want to spend money... but Wu beat me to it. Fixing the only issue I had with the 1.1

Agreed, something interesting with Sinn 358. Maybe a bezel model based on it instead of 103 and then 358 midnight blue dial like the one they made 20 of for some magazine

I’m conflicted, like you and sexuality bro (or sis, depends on the day).

I'm not sure how likely a new 358 would be as I've been hearing for two years that it's being discontinued - although it's still in the lineup so who knows. I still think it's one of their best watches.

I'm also hoping for lower prices. Sinn pricing has gotten out of hand in the last 5 years or so.

I've heard the same but so far they've discontinued the entry level 358 with acrylic and a screw instead of a capsule. Something is always standing in the way of me acquiring 358. But if I were hard core shopping for something Type 20 military vibe I'd get 358 before Longines Big Eye and a few others
