I know, I love the watch. I thought about it when it came up in the sale recently, but it went in a flash.
Also, its quite big - the Weiss was 42mm and wore bigger than I'd like on my wrist. On the other end, something like the Slimline has the ETA 2801 handwind movement which just looks funny on the displayback because its so small. I prefer the Unitas.

The seller has a fantastic collection. Glad you went with the sinn it looks fantastic it seems to have been a long journey but i think the sinn had the edge from the start. After your recent in comings looking forward to a SOTC with power ratings after they all land, hardest job for a while will be choosing which one to ware.

That's a great looking Sinn, they make so many variations of the chronograph that I would have trouble choosing. :D
No more Quartz (except when I cannot resist).

Bit late seeing this thread (been travelling), but wanted to add my congratulations to the rest. Like most Sinn models, the 103 is a great watch. :thumbup:

Just before the Superbowl Kickoff. The lume is excellent and charges at the slightest light, and stays on forever. The diver's extension comes off quite easily though annoying a bit when putting the watch on.
