For the last 43 years everything at Sinn has revolved
around high-quality mechanical watches. This brand’s
history began in 1961 when pilot and flight instructor
Helmut Sinn began to manufacture pilot’s watches
under his own name in Frankfurt-Rödelheim. These
were exceptionally instrument like wristwatches and board
clocks of high functionality, fulfilling the professional
demands of pilots perfectly. High functionality, top-grade
indestructible quality, and extreme cost-effectiveness
quickly got around the pilot scene. And today these unique
qualities remain typical of Frankfurt’s Sinn brand.
Sinn has long been an insider tip among fans of mechanical
watches, for together with the renaissance of the mechanical
wristwatch, interest in these special watches originating
in Frankfurt also rose. Specialties of the house such
as instrument-like chronographs and sports and diver’s
watches were able to assert themselves in trade press
comparison tests against often much more expensive competition
bearing “bigger” names. |
