Re: Military Type IV
I like it, but not enough to cough up the $$.
Windshield: Reinforced Acrylic.
I wonder what they used to reinforce it?

For sure it’s pretty porky but that seams to be the case for every 7750 based watch.

Very comfortable. I’ve never felt my 103 was too thick.BBK357 wrote:103 thickness. Despite the height it’s still a comfy watch.

Re: Military Type IV
Watchbuys pricing is right on. Love 103s. That domed acrylic is bad ass. If it was sapphire I would have considered it. Nice job Sinn.

I’ve seen a lot of the Sinn Japan Mil watches and this is def my favorite. It’s a 103 case and takes the same bracelet so the size for me is perfect and balanced. So nice.

Re: Military Type IV
Reminds me of an updated version of the older 156 that had the 24hr register removed.
Different bezel, case and size but still lots of dna passed into this new 103 model

For what it’s worth, the 103 case is so much more comfortable than the 156 case. Of course it has the awesome L-5100 movement, but man it was just a bit too big and had a thick/rounded caseback that made it hard to not flop around the wrist.

Re: Military Type IV
Watchbuys website indicates a polished finish, but isn’t it blasted in the photos?
Re: Military Type IV
I was under the impression it was fully polished, but it does look blasted in the photos.
I’ll find out.

Re: Military Type IV
Copy that.
$2160 on a Zulu, I like it.
My stable is all no-date so I’m reluctant to break the cycle with this one.

Glad you cleared that up because the WB bracelet shot looks 110% blasted

Re: Military Type IV
If that is the same Zulu that came with my 103, it is super thick. The 103 is best on a regular strap.

I would use a Maratac Zulu. Super comfy and not stiff at all.CGSshorty wrote:If that is the same Zulu that came with my 103, it is super thick. The 103 is best on a regular strap.
Re: Military Type IV
You really don’t need that no-date Sinn you’ve got..... ;-)
Re: Military Type IV
that's really very nice, but fully polished? ugh
