Sinn 556 - References, Prices and Owners' Reviews

The ultimate field watch, the Sinn 556 is a robust, precise and uncompromising tool watch. The sleek design of the 556A fully contributes to this impression of efficiency. In terms of specifications, we are on safe values, even proven: sapphire crystal, 200m water resistance with screwed and protected crown, anti-magnetism and above all unbeatable readability! The large Arabic numerals 3, 6, 9 and 12 in white on a matte black background and the white hands allow an almost instantaneous reading of the time. The date…

I was looking for a watch that was both readable and robust, with a diameter of less than 40 mm, and I finally chose the 556 in the “A RS” version. I have been wearing this watch daily since 2020, despite my manual work, and I am not disappointed. The first impression that emerges is that of rock-solid solidity as soon as you take it in your hand. It is quite heavy with its metal bracelet, weighing 160 g. The brushed metal and the raw shape of the case also give it a very robust look. I was able to test this solid…

I have been wearing it for a few weeks, I did not want the metal bracelet but rather the rubber which fits the case just as well. This watch is perfect, even for a 16cm wrist, with its 38.5 cm diameter it is large with its dial opening. Its readability is exceptional in all conditions.

I bought this watch for its very simple design and the great readability of its dial. The readability of the dial comes from the matte black dial, very contrasting with the indexes and hands of a beautiful white. The date window is very discreet (placed at 4:30) thanks to its black background. The bright red seconds hand gives a little pep to the whole. To emphasize the military side of the watch I opted for a Marine Nationale strap (Erika) which suits it perfectly. A discreet but unique watch. Only downsides: the…

Sinn, a German brand known without being too well-known, that's what I like. The Sinn 556 is the entry-level watch and has 4 references, mine, the 556A, has 4 Arabic numerals 3,6,9 and 12 with a white second hand. This Sinn exudes the tool watch, it is entirely brushed, easy to read, water-resistant to 200m, a crown protector and finally a ghost date that sticks perfectly to the watch. Its only "non-tool" side is the transparent case back revealing the SW-200. Mine has a gold rotor that is now silver. For its price…

I have only known the Sinn brand for a couple of years. I had indeed missed it but by looking at more and more watch content the brand has established itself in my mind as a reference of robustness and quality. I am very attracted to tool watches especially military type and the reference 556 had been making me dream for a while. I opted for the magnificent blue dial of the 556 I B because while being a simple watch it can still be dressed up. The Sinn steel bracelet is incredible. The links are secured using rivet…

This sinn has an exemplary finish, as soon as you take it in hand you immediately feel that it exudes quality. Everything is balanced in this watch and the red second discreetly brings its little touch of color. It is superb in its simplicity and efficiency. The movement is better regulated than the cosc + 3 s / d. The only small drawbacks would be the power reserve at 38 hours and the rather large clasp but otherwise nothing to say, this sinn 356 is a very good canvas watch

Perhaps the most versatile watch I have ever owned. A good diameter, good water resistance, a great bracelet, a dial of a truly original blue that changes from a pastel color to a sparkling dark blue. My everyday watch that follows me to the office and when traveling. It may only be missing a beautiful clasp at the bracelet level. To conclude, with it we can create lots of memories and for me that is the hallmark of a good timepiece.

Thoughtful purchase of this tool watch, with specs that can face everyday life without trembling. I like its readability, its contained diameter (38.5mm), the quality of its finishes, and therefore its ability to be worn in many conditions without fear for its integrity. A versatile and well-built instrument watch. I also chose the "RS" version, with its red second hand giving the whole thing an extra touch of sportiness. A design that easily accepts a nato, leather, or rubber strap to replace its original metal. S…

Tool watch with character, the precision and coldness of German execution, very industrial but so satisfying with this perfectly readable dial, thanks to the double anti-reflective treatment, all in an elegant 38.5mm case that will delight all wrists. Special mention for this red seconds hand, bringing a welcome sporty effect to this aviator dial, an excellent watch for a very reasonable price that exudes quality of execution.
