Piccolo 673 Posted September 27, 2016 Saw this pop up for Sale on WUS - I've been looking for a Sinn for a while, but couldn't find the right one. I also like the B&R brand but most of the models don't suit me, and/or have terrible resale values. This combined the two for me. Some info about the collaboration here: http://www.woundforlife.com/2014/05/19/lessons-wristory-bell-ross-story/ This one is based on the Sinn 203, and is an edition of 300. Made roughly in the mid 90's, it's 41mm, made of bead blasted titanium so feels smaller as it's light. Runs a Valjoux 7750 movement with screw down pushers and crown. It has a tritium dial, a divers extension on the bracelet, and I like it Recognizable Sinn lugs too. Anyway - a few pics below, not the best but they'll do. It's a great watch, sits really nicely, feels solid but light, great color on the numerals and easily legible. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FunnyStarSystem 7,538 Posted September 27, 2016 Had no idea B&R was such a new brand, and bomb diffusion?! Fascinating origin and such a handsome watch, thanks for sharing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Piccolo 673 Posted September 27, 2016 Had no idea B&R was such a new brand, and bomb diffusion?! Fascinating origin and such a handsome watch, thanks for sharing. They've built a good following in a short space of time, I definitely prefer their earlier models to the more recent ones though. That is a cool piece Thanks, I'm liking it so far, 8 hours in Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Theduke.williams 1,036 Posted September 27, 2016 I happen to love the BR02's at the moment. If you put a normal strap on these they'd resemble Omega chronographs (PO or Speedmaster). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Piccolo 673 Posted September 28, 2016 That's a real beauty buddy. Thanks mate I happen to love the BR02's at the moment. If you put a normal strap on these they'd resemble Omega chronographs (PO or Speedmaster). I'm thinking about a vintage leather strap for it, or maybe something canvas to keep it a bit military styled. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dalboy 2 Posted September 28, 2016 Nice solid piece ... Lume the marker @ 12 on the Bezel and a clean it will come up a treat .. Wear it in good health. Dal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
deju 1,873 Posted September 28, 2016 Great watch! These look like they are built like tanks, proper tool watches. Unfortunately when ever they pop up it's always the wrong time for me :( Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Piccolo 673 Posted September 28, 2016 Nice solid piece ... Lume the marker @ 12 on the Bezel and a clean it will come up a treat .. Wear it in good health. Thanks Dal, I'll clean it and then get it dirty again in about a week I might have a look into lume for the bezel too, though I quite like the beaten up look as it is an old, well used watch Great watch! These look like they are built like tanks, proper tool watches. Unfortunately when ever they pop up it's always the wrong time for me :( It does feel really well built, it should be as it's been made by Sinn. All of their watches are very well engineered. The titanium helps to keep it comfortably light though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Piccolo 673 Posted October 1, 2016 Cool watch, reminds me of a Breguet I missed out on two different Type XX's - so got this as a space filler while I track the right Breguet down. That's unusual a b&r rep by Sinn. Thanks for the link good read too. A commissioned rep haha Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
