What time is it? Watches and horology

I almost got a sinn today. Been kind of hankering after one for a bit now. Second hand one came up and sort of half agreed a price with the seller then someone came in and offerd him full asking.

Couldn't afford it really so probably no bad thing. Was one of the ezm3 models. How you find your sinn?

B.

I love my Sinn.

The movement needs tuning as it's started to lose a little per day, but that's just the case with any mechanical watch eventually.

I've had it for 9 years now without any maintenance and I wear it daily, whilst riding, going out... constantly. I've even been in some accidents wearing it and gauged out a bit of the case but the watch remains perfect.

For the price, and for what you get, they are bargains. Swiss movement (the ETA Valjoux), german case design.

I don't think that sub-£1500 I'd chose anything different, though I only paid £550 for mine (new) when I got it.

If I had more money then it would be different... I'd go for one of these: http://www.ninanet.net/watches/others05/Mediums/mlanged.html

But I don't... so I'm very happy with the Sinn.
