  • Sinn U1

    Hello Christian,

    Blessed Saturday wish to you and all in this warm forum.

    I did inform the AD to get help from Sinn directly and below attachment is the response from Sinn.

    I truly in my heart don’t think the response from Sinn is representative of the Corporate view but one that is isolated, as I cannot imagine being brushed off without any consideration of the Sinn heritage.

    I have also informed the AD that I have brought an anomaly in their Sinn U1 design, which as a customer is silently reporting a flaw. I also told my AD, that I am truly looking for Sinn to help me replace this timepiece, not looking for a refund.

    This is not just any timepiece for me, it’s an embodiment of the Founder with his name on our wrist. Sometimes we all forget that the brand name actually belongs to a soul who is responsible in our daily happiness when the watch is on our wrist….with its birth certificate as Made in Germany.

    I am still waiting to hear back from my AD as they have reached out to Sinn again. I will be returning my U1 on Wednesday, but will not ask for a refund as I am praying Sinn would consider.

    There isn’t a single U1 which I have come across without the Made in Germany inscription, on videos, on websites and on documents …

    Thank you all so much for the amazing warm welcome to this Sinn brotherhood. I have been an avid fan of Sinn for a long time and this group is just a magical addition to my passion.

    I’m an overall avid OCD watch collector, very guilty I know , so for the Sinn U1 and similar black matte dials, there is actually a beautiful engraving of “Made in Germany” which can be seen under lighting …if you enlarge the U1 in the official Sinn website, you can notice this at the 6 o’clock position. It’s easy to miss as even the authorised dealer here in Malaysia was totally surprised when I pointed this out…


    I happen to now have probably the only Sinn U1 without the engraving…the dealer has told me they will contact Sinn Germany to ask for a replacement…it is so so difficult to have my dream piece just sitting in a box in my room…

    Hello my dear Sinn collectors,


    My name is Binder and I am from Malaysia. I found out about this amazing forum through a video on YouTube yesterday.

    I would like to firstly thank the Moderator for kindly approving my request to be part of this close knit group.

    I had purchased my first Sinn watch (U1-fully tegimented) 2 days ago. It was a long wait for me and is my grail watch. We only have 1 Sinn authorised dealer here in Malaysia.


    When I can home after receiving my watch, to my dismay, I noticed that the dial has no “Made in Germany” engraving. I was very disappointed being a die hard fan of German technology, including my Audi, I could not understand this missing important element in my newly purchased watch.

    I am reaching out to you all please to advise me if this is common for the Sinn U1 model to not have the “Made in Germany” engraving. I have attached pictures of my watch here.


    For me, Sinn is a watch which is my pride of being associated with the Founder and Germany, and would be inherited by my son later.


    The “Made in Germany” is something I am truly proud off, but this doesn’t appear in my U1. Can you please let me know your thoughts please.

    I apologise from my heart that this message is written in English.

    Thank you all so kindly

    Binder
