Sinn 104 ST Owner Review : Functional, completed and concrete

What better choice for a pilot's watch than a brand invented by a real pilot? I have a particular affinity for German watchmaking. In fact, I have an affinity with Germany. Having grown up in Lorraine, you could say we share a shared history, fraught with challenges. I love rigor, order, precision—so many words that aptly describe our German neighbor! So it was only natural that my eye finally settled on German watchmaking during my research. Lange, Glaschutte Original, Nomos, Union Glaschutte, Sinn... if I had the budget, I would be a customer of all these brands! I had to start somewhere, and I had several criteria for this purchase: I wanted a German brand, of course, a sporty aviator-style model, an open case back, and a green dial. My choice quickly fell on Sinn, and in particular this 104 ST model, which I find sublime with its countdown bezel, green dial, and open case back. Powered by a Sellita SW220-1 caliber, beautifully decorated by Sinn, I enjoy examining it from every angle! It's a robust, sporty, reliable, and precise model that can be worn in all circumstances. Very comfortable to wear, it's clearly one of the favorites in my collection! I can only recommend you take a look at this brand and, more broadly, German watchmaking, which is off the beaten track and offers very well-finished models at a more than reasonable price. One day, I'll definitely look for a model in the fine watchmaking world, and it will probably be from the Germans, not the Swiss.
