SINN watches on rough road simulation track

Have you ever wondered how our watches would react to huge jolts and vibrations? Can they truly withstand the impact as they all claim?

Well, Sinn has the answer to this. In order to demonstrate how their watches would react to shocks, they contacted the internationally-recognised Fauenhofer-Institut LBF of over 70 years in experience, to put their watches to the test. They conducted a no mean-feat endurance test on 5 different Sinn models where the watches are fastened onto the steering wheel of a test chassis on a simulated rough road track.

The classic watches such as the Frankfurt Finance (model 6000) are deliberately chosen in this test to showcase the hardiness of the watches. Despite the enormous stress levels to which the Sinn watches were subjected, they all passed with flying colors; proving their robustness and suitability for everyday use, even when exposed to extreme vibration and jolts.

The next time you look at your Sinn piece sitting at your wrist, you know that it’s a tough cookie.

Read about the full scope and extent of the endurance test. Please click on the pages below.

Announcement: Faster servicing time for Sinn owners! -

Owners of Sinn models with Ar-Dehumidifying technology rejoice! The proprietary technology of Sinn’s dehumidifying technology means that to date, all Sinn watches sent in to The Hour Glass for regular maintenance had to be flown back to Germany specially for the refill of the technologically sophisticated inert gas filling. This measure purges all moisture and oxygen from the case interior and keeps the movement in an atmosphere of protective gas.

We are pleased to announce that The Hour Glass, sole agent for Sinn in Singapore, Malaysia and Thailand is now able to service the watch locally, invariably cutting short the waiting time!

In our continued quest to serve you better, we have brought in the necessary equipment direct from the Sinn factory in Germany to refill your watch with the protective gas filling right here.

Now, that’s what we call scoring high-tech – coz who’s arguing with German technology?

See you soon at our boutiques!
