Would look too big ? Oi saw your video and in your writing it looks well but my smaller wrist I think it look to big , what is your opinion about this model since it doesn’t have any bezel would it look much bigger size? I’ve a Seiko Alpinist it looks too small compared with my other watches (41 mm or 42 ) plus the price compared with the 556 it’s bit more expensive 😉 almost same design! Have got a question about the movement ETA 2892-A2 can you please explain why Sinn still have ETA movements instead of Sellita? Is this calibre better option than the 2824-2 or this is more close to the higher calibres ? The power reserve it’s only 40 hours bit disappointing if Sinn installed a SW 300-2 56 hours power wouldn’t be a better option? Sorry for such huge txt ! All the best!

      @@ClickSpringReview hi thank you for letting me know your opinion about the 43 case , I’ll have to wait until Sinn sends it to a near by store 😉 sending from Sinn’s it will be bit more expensive, about the U50 SW-300 it’s a very accurate calibre plus with Sinn’s magic fine tune it’s a COSC certified diver it’s expensive I’ve got the full tegimented ( want the SDR ) but they din’t have it so I bought it no regrets only it’s a very stealth watch at least nobody’s would look at it as a almost 3 k euros piece 😉 , the 104 I have it’s the black dial with index’s spot on as well only the clasp you know it’s to polish so it will get lots of scratches, but for that I’ll change it for a silicone or for a leather that’s it very versatile Watch I’m tented to buy a another one but already have almost same case design 105 UTC black dial sand blasted version that one is running 5 seconds less compared with my other 104 and U50 S Sinn’s wish i was near your country Mr Barry maybe you could fine tune it for me 😉, in Portugal specially in algarve it’s very hard to get a good watch maker plus there’s no Sinn AD in Portugal I bought my watches in the Netherlands 👌😉 anyway 5 seconds less it’s almost nothing If I saw that in the beginning they would say it’s on the specs so .. anyway I’ll think I’ve got to wait it’s better not spending such a cash and then … you don’t like it etc , not a rich person ! Plus with all the issues about the war etc people are bit scared anyway love your videos a lot very well made no bla bla the attention for details etc the usual kind of “channels tubes” you have the luck to be in UK it has everything this Portugal only good for tourists 😆 not for watchmakers plus if I go to a dealer asking can you please help me fine tune this watch they say no we don’t have that brand sorry 😳! Even I know some watches have Sellita movements like Oris etc it’s the same ! Anyway thank you for let me know your opinion regarding to the 836 Vs the 556 even on that I think Sinn have a model with 12 , 9 and the 3 numerals witch one do you prefer?

    I bought the standard 556A in 2019 and have enjoyed it a lot since
    Made the usual mistake of ordering it in the (very good) rubber strap to save a few bucks compared to the H-link bracelet which I eventually acquired. The rubber fits the case so tightly that it’s almost impossible to remove without scratching it, and the large clasp is, well, really large. Better have an 8 inch wrist to pull it out.
    If only I could have the red seconds hand retrofitted on my Sinn, it would be close to perfection.

    I got mine about a week ago… super happy with it! And the accuracy is actually super good. I re set the time three days ago and so far it’s only about half a second slow.
    Mine came with the silver rotor instead of the gold, which was slightly disappointing but not a big deal.
    At first I was slightly disappointed in the small size but I’ve gotten used to it.
    The lume is also slightly disappointing. Looks nice but doesn’t last very long. I charged it up before bed with UV light and I woke up in the middle of the night (around 3am) and the glow was totally gone. Not a huge deal as i will hardly be in an emergency situation where it’s pitch dark and need to look at the time on my watch, but to me good lume should be a feature of a high quality sports watch.
