Sinn 556

I really would like to pick one of these up, anyone have one, and what are your thoughts of this watch? I feel they are very fun and would be great to wear with jeans, etc.

I kind of like the light blue (Tiffany's inspired)...

No experience with those dial colors, but the 556i is an excellent watch.

Be daring and go orange or yellow!

I'd think the colourful variants are all sold out and quite expensive on the secondary market.

I have a 556 I, love the watch, goes with everything.

@PeterKotsa does I believe. I think he has 3 of them actually.

I was working my way down to say the same thing!! Check PK he loves um!!

I’ve been thinking hard about picking up the green one for a while. love the brand and the specs of this watch.  The price of the non-LEs is more appealing though.

Whatever colour you pick you really can't go wrong with these..

Ive matched mine up with some bracelets from the Ginault Silent Service watch I reviewed a while back, the bracelet fits perfectly.

Favourite colour for me is the Yellow 🔥

That's good info.

I love the minimalist design. As good as Junghans. But they are limited so it's hard to find them at a reasonable price. Maybe one day.

Hi, yes I have a brand new Jura Green for sale on chrono24, was difficult to get hold of...anybody interested on here? I will shift the price haha Lovely watch but already have the blue and love it for its simplicity, build etc so...brought too many this year so 2 have to go! great watch grab one! I went for the Green as the most subtle to live with long term?

If only it were the Aquamarine—Tiffany's blue. What are you asking please?

I have to say, I don't get these. Sinn's whole ethos and aesthetic is über utilitarian, so these just strike me as bandwagon jumping. Everyone's doing them these days, so I wouldn't look to Sinn for candy colors. 

I don't think that's their ethos as a brand, it's just that the tool watches are what they're known for among watch nerds. I mean they have a whole line of dress watches that generally get ignored, and they've been doing colourful limited editions for years.

John, not sure what I put it up for? will take a look tomorrow, its the only new one from UK, rest are Europe and for us its +20%VAT! to buy into UK, shocking!!!!

Definitely a top 10 watch for the price range, I absolutely love it. My personal favorite is the black dial 556 with the brown leather strap, but these are some bangers too. If I were to choose, I would pick the orange dial, but you can't really go wrong with any one of them

What kind of bracelet is that?

The 556 is what got me looking at Sinn but is was the 356 that ultimately seduced me. It is the perfect use of this case design for me

That bracelet works really well with the 556.

I own the Carnelian Red which I like a lot but would probably have bought the aquamarine one if it had still been available.

these little guys flew off the shelf and you can see them now on Chrono24 above retail, which is fantastic news for this great German brand

Can I ask what you paid, retail, for one? Thanks. They are right around $2k (USD) on Chrono24 right now. Most are in Europe for sale.

I paid €1350 on Sinn website, as it was still available then

Do you happen to know if this is the same bracelet that can be purchased from Ginault without a watch? Doesn’t specify which model it is for.

I have the green variant and am looking to get a bracelet for it. Not loving the strap that came with it.
