Strange. I've never liked the diapal on the bracelet but it's transformed on that strap.

This one joins the list of why did I sell it
Very nice what model is that
Sinn 142 Lemania 5100 in PVD, not sure of year
Sinn 358 LE Jubilaum
We are all on borrowed time, use it as a reminder to "seize the day"
Spotted this on eBay. Sinn do slip up from time to time. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/172541040493

Some say the 42mm size of the 358 is too big, preferring instead the smaller 356. I found it just right. Great Sinn quality, very comfortable. Superb balanced look to the twin-register chrono dial with no cut-off hour digits, date at 6 o'clock and that glossy grey sunburst finish is sublime. Why-o-why did I sell mine?

Hi Pete, completely agree but at least you know it went to a good home
I've had the 356 and 556 previously and they didn't feel any where near as comfortable as the 358. The whole thing is such an awesome piece of German engineering and the bracelet is just the perfect fit for my wrist. It's never been off the bracelet since I've had it. Oh and that dial....you can never catch it properly in a photo to show the amazing sunburst effect

UX on (I think) a timefactors NATO.

Back from Sinn for complete overhaul, including new case and bezel.
Now I get a little side project of what to do with the old case. If I can find a casback that fits, I should be able to knock something together to give me a working watch.
On a custom strap made for me by a talented chap in Indonesia.

One of the 40 decommissioned EZM2s - the GSG9 was added to the dial once Sinn took the 40 back from the GSG9 and serviced them priory to sale.
When it goes back for service/battery change, I am tempted to ask them to put a NOS EZM2 dial on it - the issue number is on the back, so I'd rather have it looking like it was when in service.
I bought a time factors premium nato to replace the knackered leather strap.
I'm not sure why the leather has only lasted two years but the watch is my daily wearer. The nato in my eyes looks good and is without a doubt excellent for the money.

My Sinns. Currently I don't have a picture on my phone the Sinn 857 UTC that I have.
Also, does Guinand (the company bought by Helmut Sinn) counts? ;)
U1 is fantastic watch. Not everyone's cup of tea, but definitely mine! Design wise is very bold and a bit of left-field with the lego hands. It is a watch that has gradually grown on me, before I bought it I started to appreciate it for what it is: its design (industrial, no-nonsense, masculine), built like a tank. It became my go to watch for any sports/physical activities. It is perfect for the summer on my current set up, but it can be 'toned down' with different straps. Looks great on its bracelet (a bit heavy on steel but one gets used to it), on rubber and on a nato. Seen some decent pictures on a leather but it is not for me (for that particular watch and for the activities that I am using it). On the downside is that it sits tall on the wrist and I tend to catch it quite often on things.
Here are my ones
EZM1 Le
EZM2 GSG9
U2
UX GSG9
EZM13
Gonna have to try an Arktis at some point, although I do have a bit of a thing for panda dials. I like my 103 a lot, especially now that it's keeping essentially perfect time (gaining perhaps 2-3 seconds a month). Had to get a warranty service after it suddenly started gaining about 3 minutes/day. They screwed it up the on the first attempt, came back with severe gear lash causing the chrono second-hand to stutter. Sent it back again. This time, their head of service handled it personally. I don't know who that is, but he definitely knows his stuff.
Sinn EZM3F on a Marine Nationale strap - do you think that combo works?
Re-posting my Sinn's as Photobucket stole my pics.
