Reply With QuoteI have a Farer so I'm a little biased, but very nice. They are great at colour.
So I’ve ordered a sinn le from Jura, but have no idea when it will arrive...
I have been tempted by this:

This is what is on order from jurawatches. They are great so it is just how long sinn take. Apparently they are still manufacturing

My experience of Jura is, if it isn't in stock you will be waiting and/or lied to about it. Probably better ordering direct from Sinn.
Hope it arrives quickly for you.
As for Farer, I really want to look at some of the range this year. I love what they do with colour.
Out of the two watches you have looked at I'd stick with the Sinn.
Both lovely watches;
The Farer will be very pretty and will wear well. A very attractive watch.
The Sinn has better heritage and looks like a proper tool watch.
I reckon if you buy the Farer you'll be mulling over the Sinn for years after. I reckon if you buy the Sinn you'll be happy in that.
I placed the order with Jurawatches on the 25th Feb. I think they are not taking orders for it anymore and Sinn have sold out too. I did a bank transfer as managed to get a slightly better deal on it and they quoted three or four weeks. I might give it a couple of weeks as I don't think that the Farer will sell out straight away.
I've had a Sinn 104 St Sa since the time when there was only one of them and love it. Apart from 'family' pieces it's my longest-standing watch and won't be going anywhere soon.
The LE you have on order is the only one that I reckon is as nice as the original (although the green comes close). It's no longer available direct from Sinn but if you can get one from Jura, that's the one to go for.
I ummed & ahhed about that Sinn for too long, and by the time I'd decided there was no way life could go on without it, they sold out. If you can get it, then I say get it for sure.
If you can get hold of the Sinn then get that. I've got the 104 LE and it's a lovely watch and I don't think you'd regret it. If you do they hold their value so well I can't imagine you'd lose much on it seeing as they are sold out.
Thanks for your replies . I will keep faith with Jura I reckon

The Sinn for me, looks great!
Let us know how you get on pls, I'll be really curious to see it if/when it arrives.Originally Posted by s1wnw
No, the blue LE. Same as you have ordered!
The Farer is so much better looking now that they have decided not to stick to the (slightly wierd) affectation of putting a bronze crown on every single model.
Some really quite characterful and attractive watches in the range now, especially including the one in the OP.
But I still think the Sinn is a more accomplished watch, and a little more timeless in its straight capability.
