The Watch

Here we have a 2020 Sinn 104 St Sa I W White Automatic, which has become the signature watch for Sinn. Its polished 40mm stainless steel case has a very comfortable lug-to-lug length of 47mm and a case thickness of 11.5mm. A screw-down crown sits on the right side, protected by shoulders, and a bi-directional Pilots' bezel with a black aluminium 60-minute countdown insert. Sapphire crystal AR coated on both sides protects a crisp white dial, an outer minute track precisely executed with black outlined hourly baton markers filled in Super LumiNova clearly indicates the hours, and a day-date window sits at 3 o’clock. Syringe hands with Super-LumiNova infill are complemented by an arrow point sweeping second hand, and at 12 o’clock we have the Sinn motif with “Automatic'' printed at 6 o’clock to complete this highly legible pilot's watch. On the back, we have a screw-down exhibition case back, inside an automatic Sellita Cal. SW-220-1, 26 jewels, and 28,800 beats per hour. It comes paired with its Sinn 20mm vintage style leather strap and a signed buckle, and the watch comes with its spring bar removal tool and paperwork.


Personal Note

The Sinn 104 has become a classic for collectors, and with good reason; the build quality, fit and finish, and proportions are all undeniable for the money. This is the less-seen white dial with the black bezel, a perfect contrast, especially with the black surrounding indices and hands. If you are in the market for one of these, I would snap it up while you can!


The Brand

In 1961, the pilot and flight instructor Helmet Sinn founded the Sinn watch company in Frankfurt am Main. Principally making watches that gave the user maximum functionality at a reasonable price. His Pilot watches became popular with his fellow pilots as they appreciated their build quality and precision. In 1985, Professor Dr Reinhard Furrer, a German physicist, can be seen wearing the 140 S model on his wrist during the D-1 space lab mission. They continued their exploration of space with the 142 S in 1992. This watch was worn by Dietrich Flade during the Mir-92 mission. Later in 1993, the 142 space chronograph went on the second German Spacelab mission, the D-2. The mission was in space for 10 days, orbiting the Earth 160 times whilst onboard the NASA Space Shuttle, Columbia. Sinn was bought by Lothar Schmidt, an engineer, in 1994, renaming the company ‘Sinn Spezialuhren GmbH’. Over the years, Schmidt used his engineering background to develop Ar-dehumidifying technology, which is resistant to temperature. In 2011, they celebrated their 50th anniversary.
