Excellent choice.
Its the sub dial colour that does it for me and I should have pulled my finger out and ordered one.
It's fair to say that quite a few Sinn watches have passed through my hands over the years. This is only the fourth one that I have decided to keep, to go along with my other three which are an EZM1, EZM4 and a 156. The Sinners amongst us will know the models that I am referring to. For non Sinners, lets just say they are nice watches. This one is the limited edition 103 A Sa Blue, now sold out at Sinn as they only made 500 of them. And yes, I am also a bit of a sucker for blue dial watches, even though most of my watches are black dial.
Excellent choice.

Can't wait to unwrap mine on Christmas day!
Yes, that's stunning. It's unfortunate that I now prefer a chrono with just two subdials, at 9 and 3 or at 12 and 6.
Stunning! Congrats.
I do wish people would stop posting pictures of desirable watches! ;-) I must resist!
I'm trying to save for a Monaco and this flagrant displaying of sexy looking watches doesn't help ;-)
Seriously that's one nice looking watch :-)
That is very nice indeed. I too have a thing for Sinn, their destro watches in particular, but have yet to get anything colourful. I see that Sinn list the EZM 4 as the Achilles. Do you how it got that name, please? All I can find (link) is:
"The Sinn EZM4 "Achilles" was designed for doctors, paramedics, and firefighters who would need a well performing watch in conditions that might otherwise destroy or inhibit the function of "other watches." Even if you are a doctor that works in a relatively excitement-free zone, you can still communicate to your patients that you are ready for front-line medic duty should the need occur."
Looks like a great watch to have!
I was looking at a green sinn which I liked in another thread . this blue one also looks good.
That is a lovely version of the 103.
It was named after Ernst Achilles, the Frankfurt (Sinn's home town) Fire Chief for 23 years.

Here's mine. One of the very few watches I bought new. But doesn't matter as it's a keeper and going nowhere! Jura offer this on 0% 12 months. Which is £155 upfront, and then £116 monthly. Quick, as there are only 500 made so stock is limited.
Mine is on a notched 22mm chronissimo strap to for the 20mm lugs. Just to give it that extra beefiness at the lugs
