Vielleicht hat Jemand info an Sinn-Chronik site? Seit langem nicht erreichbar, hier steht "Das Nachschlagewerk für SINN-Uhren. (Achtung: Die SINN-Chronik ist derzeit leider inaktiv. Sie wird gegenwärtig überarbeitet und steht demnächst wieder zur Verfügung.)" aber seit nicht nur Gestern...
Die website-Name ist jetzt zu verkaufen, wie dort geschrieben ist, aber was wirt mit die Text und schöne Fotos sein?
Danke für die Antwort, Gruss

I think it was only the special blue outside box,with handwritten serial-no. on it
(I have one box of them from our "Forum-Father Markus Zorg"),
so I think the watch itselve ist a normale one,
maybe the titanium version? is much rarer than 1000 pcs. I think?
but I am not absolutly shure...
Is there any other difference? :cl:Thx Stefan for your reply,
I've also seen the titanium version on the web but now the steel version is talked about. You make me more sure that the watch itself is not a limited one, only the paper box
that is exactly what I saw on the scan but did not really believe my eyes
So no premium price to be paid for this watch on the used market... as I'm after a pre-loved Arktis for quite a while but still hunting for the best price/quality ratio piece.
Best regards,

Once upon a time there was a limited edition of the Sinn 203 Arktis, a run of 1000 pieces. As I've just seen on on the web, I have some questions in connection with it:
- when was this limited edition actually produced?
- is it possible that the number of the limited series (e. g. XXX/1000) was marked only on the box and not on the case back?
- what is the difference (if any) between this edition and the "street version"?
- is the dial already with Superluminova or still Tritium? (earliest Arktis watches might still use Tritium, though I'm not sure about this)Thanks in advance! Regards,

Sorry,
my beautiful Arktis is at the moment not available
because it is in Franfurt-Rödelheim at the watch-workshop
I hope they can repair the hand-winding-system as soon as possible...
After that I can place the watch witch the "inbus-bracelet" on our kitchen-scales
for knowing the exact weigth
My wrists are schmall about 17cm, so 2-3 peaces fall away on each side.
But on my opinion, the absolut weigth is not so important because the comfort of the bracelet is very very good!
Hi Stephan
thx for chiming in. Both of us are waiting your watch back
my wrist is about the same size, so measuring the weight of your Arktis on the imbus-bracelet is more than enough for me... hoping to get an Arktis myself sooner or later...Best regards,

Hey Robert?
Can't help you without owning the watch and even
if I did I wouldn't deconstruct the whole bracelet.Com'on man, you don't really need the weight
down to the last dot and comma??
No, it's not a question of life or death
Just wanted to know what weight should I count and should I go for the most recent bracelet or stick to the previous one that I own. I'm quite sensible on weight and my 103 St sexy-plexy on the 5-row bracelet is just perfect with its 141-142 gramms. I didn't expect anyone to disassamble the bracelet but lengths could accidentally fit or the separate weight of a disassambled link could be discounted. Anyhow, thx for taking your time to reply!So anyone else having an even more
accurate data is highly welcome to chime in.BTW I'm fine with German replies as well but my poor grammar in German makes me prefer English when writing.
Best regads,

Mates,
I'd be grateful to know the exact weight of the Arktis on bracelet, both on the newest "Imbusschlüssel" bracelet and the preceding, thinner, "normal-screws" bracelet with solid end links. I have cca. 6.75" wrist so my bracelet will use altogether 10 links + clasp + end links, so if possible the weight of this outfit would be interesting to know.
Please do not give me factory data from catalogs because they are controversial and bracelet weight data is only approximate and shows full length bracelet weight.Thank you for your help in advance!

Hmmm, kauf dir lieber eine einfache 103 St ohne verschraubte oder geschütze Drücker, mit Plexi und Stahlboden. Die ist wirklich viel flacher und wirkt filigraner (Gehäuse fast identisch mit den Sixties-Modellen).
Nur das Zifferblatt ist eben moderner (in der heutigen Form erstmals aufgetaucht in einer Orfina im Jahr 1975 wie ich hier erfahren durfte).
Die neue dicke 103 Klassik wirkt nicht wirklich klassisch auf mich. Nur fett und teuer.
Bernd
Totally agreed. My 103 plexi is one of my daily beaters and looks very, very classic, the most direct offspring of the mentioned Mathey Tissot/JLC/Breguet/Heuer/Sinn models. Only small personalizations were needed...
Best,

Letzte Woche ist die älteste Frau Europas mit 114 gestorben, also immer positiv denken!!

I'm sure I'll never be Europe's oldast lady:) and around 110 people rarely need any watch...:) but hey, you are right about positive thinking:)

Exakt so wie ich vermutet hatte
...BREGUET verzichtet auf den 12 Stunden-Totalisator zugunsten von arabischen Ziffern. Bei der LE COULTRE sind die Zeiger für die Zeit schlecht ablesbar. Die SINN ist die schönste
!I always have the suspition that all these models with the very same case and base movement with only minor variations were produced in the very same factory according to the various wishes of the different brands, like Breguet, LeCoultre, and Heuer (Autavia ref. 2446). Two facts occur to my mind: one is that the now very expensive Rolex Killy was produced in its time by Heuer for Rolex, while the Montreal and similar Heuer models were produced in the seventies by Arola for Heuer (and for Longines, etc.)
Does anyone here have any good, proved info on the issue with these 103-like Fliegers? It would further enhance the value of the early Sinn 103-s too... unfortunately I'm still to purchase one so I'm on the wrong side of the door... -
Robert
I think 1966 is the start with the Sinn 103.
Only a pair was made with the Valjoux 72 without gravur on the bridge.
The next Sinn 103 has the 726 higher beat movement.
Regards LarsLars,
thx a lot for your input! I was after this information for quite a while but I could find an proved info nowhere. According to my preference the 103 series with this very case and lug design is the most "heritage-like" or iconic Sinn, having the way longest in-production time and (beside the 140/142) the closest to the original Helmut Sinn factory philosophy. PM to be sent soon.
For cca. one year I've been owning the watch that is the closest off-spring of this iconic model: the 103 St with acrylic crystal.
Best,

Bin ja noch jung genug um alles live miterleben zu können

Ich bin 51 und man lebt nicht ewig
so Herr Schmidt, schnell, bitte mit die 140 Wochentagsanzeige! :gidee: -

Hallo,
ja sorry,hier funzt es aber :
http://uhrforum.de/sinn-103a-aus-…473#post1396567Danke,Gruss Lars
Fantastisch! Echt klassiker ist sie!
Jemand weisst seit wann Sinn hat die 103 mit dem gleichem Gehauseform im Programm? Diese ist aus 1966 (wie weisst man das?) 1961 (mein Geburtsjahr) ist die Gründungsjahr, so die Zeit-Entfernung zwischen diese zwei Daten. BTW die geiche Gehauseform mit Valjoux 72 war erhaeltlich auch bei Breguet, Heuer, JLC und vielleicht andere Hersteller. Und es ist nicht ganz unmöglich dass diese Herteller haben diese Uhr von die selbe wirkliche Hersteller gekauft hatten (einige haben e. g. die selbe Kronenmuster... natürlich Personalisierungen waren möglich, wie Stadtnamen-Lünett, 24h Lünett und -Zeiger, etc. Elegante Verwandschaft...
Gruss,

A antimagnetic inner case puts 1mm on top of the heigth of a watch without.
However - it doesn't look good on the 140
We'll probably have to wait a long time till the presented models will be deliverd.
Don't want to imagine how long it might take to get some other versions

aber hoffen dürft man immer...
