How about some sexy product shots?

Polished case, coin-edge crown with embossed logo, straight, manly lugs with chamfered edges


The Sinn 104 goes everywhere, from business casual to workin' on the superbike in the garage.


Who needs color when you can go all "film-noir" and shoot in black and white?




Dark and moody. I have it on good authority from Alfred that Batman wears a Sinn 104 when he goes out base-jumpin' off buildings in Gotham...


Note the screw in the bezel that keeps it from accidentally popping off when your muscling the Batmobile around...


More of that film-noir, Batman-vibe...ooh!


Yep, it's a stunna!

Steven, your shots are better than the stock photos. The black strap really is a huge improvement over the brown. Congrats!!

Thanks, Randy. I agree on the strap. Also going to order a black strap with white contrast stitching and a Sinn deployment clasp; WatchBuys has a number of OEM Sinn straps in stock.

Also saw a review of it on The Urban Gentry with an Italian distressed brown leather strap and it looked quite good with that, too.

Thanks, Dave! Yes, the simple, highly legible dial, crisp index markers, mirror polished case and black leather strap lend a clean, sleek quality to the watch that gives it a very classy look, yet it still has that no-nonsense, highly functional sensibility that Sinn is so well known for.
