Neues Benutzerkonto erstellenHeute wieder mal die gute alte 103 St mit Acryl und überschwerem Sekundenstopper
Where could I get the very same bezel for my 103 St plexy? The edge of this one seems much better for grabbing and turning, the only concern of mine (present style of bezel edge) is that I cannot grab it well enough thus turning is hard, e. g. when things are wet. (Bezel spring does not have too large resistance, so that's not the problem.)
Thanks a lot!
Regards,
Robert
I wonder from which year (I think in the mid nineties) were sapphire crystal and dehumidifying capsule/Argon filling available for the Sinn 103 St?
I've seen recently some 103 St Sa models without the capsule/screw at 8 and they are quite appealing for me (most of them in bad condition though).
So I think sapphire was a few years earlier available. If anyone has more precise info I'd be happy with that.
Little help: I've bought my first new Sinn back between 1996 and 1998 and it was a 203 Ti Ar, so from that time Ar was surely available.
Replies in German are also highly welcome. Thanks in advance,
best:

Looking for an early Sinn 103 St Sa. Main goals are: a not refinished but good condition case, auto movement, no copper capsule. Sinn 256 (plexy) is also welcome with Luminova dial, possibly without any strap or leather. Case unrefinished and in good condition also a must.
Personal deal in my town Budapest/Hungary highly perferred. Trades also possible to one of my "for sale" watches: Sinn 356 Copper dial, Sinn 142 St B or PD by Eterna Titan Chrono ref. 6500.10.
German or English replies are highly welcome.
Thx for every kind input, here in PM or at info@sanatim.hu. (If e-mail address is not allowed Mod plz delete!)

One day in remote future, Robertusz, there will be a SINN watch, which meet 100 percent of your needs!
Fortunately there are quite a few 
one of them just on my wrist now as I type this: the 103 St plexy one of the true iconic Sinns.

Type W ist Klasse - die Stundenzaehler soll doch da sein...

Sehr schön, allerdings die Gang kann auch noch viel besser an eine 7750 reguliert sein...

I wish this watch had the weekday window too and the chrono second hand had a lume dot. I've passed this watch only because of these two missing features... oh yeah and the "Aufpreis" was really enormous... Compared that e. g. IWC asks for the blue-dialled Cousteau Chrono special edition just 100 Euro more. Alright it is not a 50 pcs limited edition but still.

Dear Mates,
I'll ask first of all those who have catalogs from year 1999 and/or 2000:
I'd like to know when Sinn changed the 103/203 series from Tritium dial to Luminova and the 103 (St and Ti) series from plain the count-up aluminium bezel to the "domed" countdown metal/alu bezel?
I have catalogs from 1998 and 2001 and the 1998 catalog still shows Tritium dial 103/203 and count-up aluminium bezel, while the 2001 catalog already writes (elsewhere in the general description) about non-radiation luminous material and the pictures show countdown metal/alu bezels.
Thanks for any kind input! (Replies in German are also welcome!)
Best,
Robert

Ehe hier lange gerätselt wird, ich habe eben zufällig mit Herr Hermann telefoniert:
Das Werk ist ein Umbau des 7750, was aber nicht von Sinn umgebaut, sondern nur verbaut wird. Der Umbau wird von einer anderen Firma übernommen.
Among others Panerai, Eberhard, Revue-Thommen also use(d) this 7750-version with column wheel, with or without split-seconds function. I don't know where the modification was executed, but my guess is at ETA.
Otherwise huge disappointment: Sinn, though first of all as a chronograph producer, didn't exhibit any chronograph - with the one and only exception of this limited edition Jubilee-model...
Gruss,
Robert

It is not by chance that the 103 is widely called the "German Speedmaster"...
