I like that blue 856 as well as the bi compass...

Re: Sinn 2018 Basel Releases
103 blue is sweet. The rest of the new offerings are meh.

You like the lume? Not sure I am digging the lume-- like everything else.
Re: Sinn 2018 Basel Releases
That is the only one that does anything for me, at least initially.
Only 100m whereas their other similar looking 556/656/856 stuff is 200m as I recall.
Size is nicer for larger wrist, but 43mm all dual will be a large appearance.
The others are just ok IMO.
Re: Sinn 2018 Basel Releases
How big is 936? Looks good to me.
Edit: just read it's 43mm - NICE!

That 936 is hot, as well as the blue 103.

Re: Sinn 2018 Basel Releases
So other than the 936, essentially minor variations of existing models. Maybe I'm jaded but I think Sinn is in a design rut.

3k on bracelet for the blue 103

Re: Sinn 2018 Basel Releases
I was a little surprised as well. Apparently the crystal is very expensive to produce.

Re: Sinn 2018 Basel Releases
The 836 and 936 certainly aren’t groundbreaking, but they are entirely new watches. They don’t do that very often.

Anything I’m capable of working on would just be improving an already good design, like I did with the Pro.

I’m skimming from work, does it have a special crystal on this one?
Best improvement they made was no screw pushers
Now- to make it truly a classic- take the 103 acrylic and install that nice blue dial in it.

Oh yes I see... and the bezel. That’s why it looks so good. And the height is 16 and not 17
I really would love to try it out. But I’m for sure a no go for 3k. I mean, it’s still a 103.
A used 103 acrylic for $13-1500 is such a good deal- even more now. And classic.

Re: Sinn 2018 Basel Releases
Nothing offensive, but nothing super compelling for me either.
Re: Sinn 2018 Basel Releases
I like the metallic hands on the 836, but I really need the markers to match.

Re: Sinn 2018 Basel Releases
The 836, crisp and clean at 43mm, does it for me, in theory.
Re: Sinn 2018 Basel Releases
I am still hoping for the 203 ARKTIS to make a return visit.
