The must-have Macro Loupe for all watch lovers

I let myself be tempted by this diver bought on a well-known Chinese site. We are clearly in a "manly" style with this screwed case protection which protects the bezel. The beautiful blue dial which changes depending on the brightness is very successful. On the motorization side we find a classic NH35 automatic which makes coffee. The steel bracelet is quite qualitative except for the pressed metal buckle but at the price sold of the watch you should not be too fussy, especially since the finishes are rather good. The watch is delivered in a small black plastic box simple but solid. The tool to adjust the bracelet is delivered with it. It is a good watch for water sports (30atm) without taking the head.

Under the influence of its blue dial

This is my first real watch.
Even though digital was almost the norm at the time, my father gave me this Seiko Sports 100 for my 10th birthday.
For me, it was a "boy's" watch, despite some teasing about the size of the watch (28mm) because of the diving bezel.
I wore this watch until the end of middle school (afterward, the size was too small).
It remained inactive for over 20 years (due to a stuck caseback).
Finally, ten years ago, when I started to "get equipped," I was able to open it.
I wasn't sure it would work again. That's a misunderstanding of Seiko reliability.
1 battery, a new case gasket, and hey presto, it's back to working like it did in 1940!
So, it's mostly my wife who wears it, my son seeing it as "too feminine."
It remains a Proust madeleine.
The detail I like: the shape of the sides with the curve of the horns and the shoulder of the crown.

My first "real" watch

This Sinn U1 is the first "value" watch that I bought about ten years ago. I already had a chic sports watch but I wanted something more radical. I was seduced by the specs: 1000m waterproof (lol especially in the pool!), U-boat steel, original syringe hands. Its only enemy: the coating of modern offices which will easily scratch your beautiful micro-beaded bracelet. Prefer the tegiment. It has become my No. 1 watch for the beach. It is also the largest I own (44mm, at the time the U50 did not exist). It is an ETA model and not Sellita like today. It is not very well known but I have the impression that among collectors it has a good love rating. Quite comfortable, it nevertheless weighs its weight if you leave it with its all-steel bracelet.

My holiday watch

Bought at auction, I didn't know its whole story but I liked its dial and I found the original micro rotor. I then discovered that I had one of the first models of the cal 215. Then Genta had designed it. A bit of legend at a low price for the time. I wear it regularly and its particular little noise reminds me that I don't have a watch like the others. Attention to bracelet enthusiasts, it is not the standard size (19mm)

A watch full of surprises

As soon as I saw them in photos I knew I was going to fall for them. During a weekend in Amiens I tried the 2 models: quartz and powermatic 80. The sunray blue dial excited me more than that of the automatic and although I prefer mechanical watches I found it more in keeping with the spirit of the 80s Seastar to take it in an electric version. No regrets, this watch has become one of the ones I wear the most. Sporty chic, waterproof to 10 atm, comfortable; the dial is really superb and playing with the light is a real pleasure. Very good value for money (at the time €350). I love it so much that I bought its 35 mm twin for my wife...but that's another story

The watch of summer 2021!

Having already bought the Prx 40 quartz, I gave the 35 mm model to my wife before the summer holidays. I love its design. It is a bit too small for me, mine in 40 mm being a little bit big. I am being picky but in 38 mm it would be perfect. Otherwise the same qualities and defects as the 40 mm. Well finished, beautiful bracelet not easy to adjust because there is no fine adjustment of the butterfly buckle. My wife loves its sky blue dial. The new automatic tapestry version is also very beautiful. It is quite versatile and can be used for swimming (10 atm), but for her it is a fairly urban watch in its style.

Little sister

The Sinn brand was created in 1961 by the visionary pilot and watchmaker Helmut Sinn in Frankfurt, Germany. Helmut Sinn was a World War II fighter pilot and survived several plane crashes. He used this experience to design shock and vibration resistant watches for German Air Force pilots and soldiers.&nbsp;
Additionally, the Sinn brand was the first to use helium for commercial diving watches, providing greater safety for professional divers. The Sinn brand is also known for working with NASA to develop watches for use in space. The range includes models like the <a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/sinn/556">Sinn 556</a>, the <a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/sinn/ezm_3">Sinn EZM 3</a>, the <a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/sinn/u1">Sinn U1</a>, the <a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/sinn/103_st">Sinn 103 ST</a>, the <a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/sinn/104_st">Sinn 104 ST</a> and the <a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/sinn/u50">Sinn U50</a>.
<h2 dir="ltr">How much does a Sinn watch cost?</h2>
Prices of new Sinn watches evolve regularly and differ depending on the model. Most cost between &euro; 1,500 and &euro; 3,000 depending on the finishes. Price differences can be significant between the brand's different collections. For example, the price of a <a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/sinn/556">Sinn 556</a> fluctuates between &euro; 1,325 &euro; and &euro; 1,474 and the <a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/sinn/356">Sinn 356 chronographs</a> oscillate between &euro; 2,390 and &euro; 2,865. The second-hand market is also an opportunity to look at to buy a Sinn cheaper than on the brand's website.
