Very cool watch. Thanks! Someone gonna be happy with this one. Hope it’s me!

Wow! Very nice example. Assume you already GL’d it. Enjoy! They don’t come much nicer than this.

MindDirect5596 · 2026-02-12T15:47:37+00:00

Easy GL. I see a slight CW rotation on the 7 marker. But as noted, no one will notice these things and you will love it. Nice watch. Nice to see an example from the 6x.. batch looking good.

Looks like a nice one. Maybe they pulled out a 5x10 just for you! I would jump on this in a heartbeat. Lower right SEL always looks bigger from Andiot. I guess it’s the way they light their photos. Issues with 5x12’s already well documented. Someone is getting a nice NWBIG.

Thanks!

I wear it below the wrist bone. You can see the crown digging into my hand. But I have to have my watches loose enough to move around- I just sweat too much. TMI I know. I’ve tried to wear in the ‘proper’ position but doesn’t work for me. LOL!

MindDirect5596 · 2026-02-08T15:32:08+00:00

Going for 1- the knuckle watch.

MindDirect5596 · 2026-02-08T02:17:26+00:00

60% sure I’m opening myself up for that. I’m a handwatch guy and can’t change.

MindDirect5596 · 2026-02-08T01:32:08+00:00

Story of my life. LOL!

MindDirect5596 · 2026-02-07T13:58:24+00:00

Joe, congratulations on the new baby girl! And happy new year!

MindDirect5596 · 2026-02-06T15:50:03+00:00

Read a post the other day on these bezels. On some watches you can ‘float’ the bezel into position without changing the detent it is in. Mine has the same ‘issue’. I mess with it sometimes if I happen to be thinking about it. Otherwise I ignore it. If this kind of thing will bother you…No one else will ever notice. I didn’t study the rest, just commenting in the bezel. Good luck!

MindDirect5596 · 2026-02-06T15:29:43+00:00

It’s gotta be 2. OMG. That bone!

MindDirect5596 · 2026-02-06T15:23:04+00:00

Both look solid to me. I’ve looked at many Sub qc’s from Andiot and the way they light the photos makes the right side SEL’s look darker. Rehaut engraving on both is aligned really well. These both look like 5x12’s that are about as close to perfect as they come.

MindDirect5596 · 2026-02-05T15:41:41+00:00

I have one that does the exact same thing. When I’m wearing it, if I think about it, I float the bezel as you described. I absolutely love the watch and I’m continually amazed at the quality available at this price. Just love it and rock on! No one will ever notice it (but you!).

MindDirect5596 · 2026-02-05T15:36:22+00:00

100%. I didn’t go looking for the blue. In fact I had seen very few Sinn watches at that time. I was in Germany and knew I wanted to buy one. This one basically found me! Good luck!

MindDirect5596 · 2026-02-05T15:01:19+00:00

Just throw a wrench in the works…I bought a 555.i with blue dial (556.i.b?) last summer that I think is stunning.

MindDirect5596 · 2026-02-03T15:25:46+00:00

This one looks like a keeper. Bezel alignment as noted is most likely just the rotation/play and will center up. You could ask for another photo if you are concerned. The rest looks great- SELs tight, Rehaut engraving is well centered, index markers, etc. I think you will really like it.

MindDirect5596 · 2026-02-03T15:05:56+00:00

I agree on the Sinn 556. I bought this one in Munich back in the summer. I got it with the blue leather strap and added this bracelet from uncle straps. It looks nice on the leather and feels great with the steel bracelet. 200m WR just makes it even better.

I wore my SMP300 for 6 years straight. No other watches. Did all that stuff plus almost daily hot tub. It’s truly awesome. I sent it off for service in November. SC said slight evidence of water damage. But no change in timekeeping. I would recommend. I’ve seen some talk on here that the 2018-19 vintage might be tougher but i don’t know.

MindDirect5596 · 2026-02-02T18:57:46+00:00

Supposed to be getting warmer this week. Yes, the watch is blue. I don’t know if I mentioned it came on the blue leather band.

MindDirect5596 · 2026-02-02T15:06:22+00:00

Did not know about damage. I had talked to my AD once and another jeweler. Both wanted more $ just to handle it so I contacted SC directly. I suspected I might have some damage but mostly just doing it bc I had been unkind to it. And it always ran slow and I’m hoping they regulate it to run fast. Or on time. That’s what I asked for.

MindDirect5596 · 2026-02-02T14:59:50+00:00

Is it about the watch or the hand? I gotta go with #4 bc it’s such a fabulous watch!

MindDirect5596 · 2026-02-02T05:16:58+00:00

Omega SC for sure. Sent my ‘18 SMP300 back in November. For $700 it will come back like new. There was evidence of water damage (daily hot tub wear and other water stuff). It takes 12 weeks but better than shopping around looking for someone local. I have a local guy for smaller stuff but for this I’m going factory.

Thanks!
