Previous post: first one: 'Passo Gardena' ('Grödnerjoch') (2020). Second one: Garda Lake whereabouts (2020).

So now and then I allow the engine to breathe and sing its songs when meandering through the amazing Dolomites twisties for many hours on end.

Another one from the mesmerizing 'Sella Ronda': 'Passo Sella':

I have a phone meeting with my boss in Cali so I wore my dual time mod 009.

Beater today. I have a similarly sized watch showing up today so I'm trying to get used to it.

Pulled out the Ninja Turtle today. Back on the stock band. I just don’t give this one enough wrist time.

Boom with the AP and a Bentley!

MPOWER5266 · 11-19-2020, 08:30 AM

I got this yesterday. Its a little smaller than the divers I normally wear but I love it so far. I wanted something Explorerish and smaller to daily wear.

Sinn makes a damn good watch.

I've got a Sinn 856 UTC that I wear when I'm flying.

It's *utterly* bombproof-- anti-magnetic, sapphire crystal, waterproof to 200M, filled w/ inert gas and the tegimented steel is something like five times harder than the usual steel used in a watch. I've been (literally) banging it around the cockpit for over a year and it still looks like the day I got it.

If you break or scratch it, you've got a lot bigger problems as you've just driven into a mountain or something like that-- Yay, Sinn!

The only issue I have heard of is the crystal has AR coating on the outside that will scratch but it can be polished off. I think this is going to be in my collection for a while, its a perfect all around watch.

Just got this today. A little bitter sweet as this watch symbolizes the new beginnings for my life from my divorce. Excuse the lighting as I just took some quick pics.

1MOREMOD · 11-20-2020, 01:37 PM

Damn i should get a divorce watch too! I do have my vintage navitimer coming back soon from service and miss that one.

zx10guy · 11-20-2020, 01:44 PM

Truth be told, I would rather not be getting this watch for that reason. But it is what it is. Been eyeing this watch for a couple of years and promised myself I would get it after my divorce.

On a side note, I did speak to the owner of Detroit Watch Company, Patrick. Extremely pleasant guy and willing to answer all questions. He even volunteered a bunch of information about the watch I didn't think to ask.

1MOREMOD · 11-20-2020, 03:51 PM

Yeqh id rather not be divorced either but seeing the positives here.
