Sinn Flieger 857 UTC Automatic Pilots Watch

Sinn Flieger 857 Automatic Wristwatch. Just like the 656, and the 756, it is rare today do you see designs appearing that are totally unique and instantly recognisable. This watch has it all. A simple design, with 4 large prime hour numbers, jet black with white markings and hands gloving maximum visibility and clarity. It is the big brother of the 856, as it is the same watch with the addition of the rotating bezel which is secure and sturdy. The design is based on an aircraft clock. As well as being a lovely practical looking watch, it is highly functional and is extremely resistant to magnetic interference, and has a strong well finished crystal and case. There is a small date window between the 4 and 5 hour markings. It is small so not to interfere with the numeric symmetry of this beautifully designed watch. Sandblasted stainless steel case and bracelet. A true future classic and the watch that everybody is talking about. The watch features a screw down crown and case back, 10 ATM water resistance, high quality stitched leather strap and signed buckle, hack seconds, sapphire crystal, presentation box. The 856 UTC is almost the same as the 656 in most respects, just incorporating the UTC dual time movement whcih is a Swiss made automatic ETA 2893-2. The UTC hand is independently settable so can be used as a GMT hand or a dual time zone hand. Width is 43 mm at widest excluding crown and 45 mm including crown, Lug to lug is 46 mm, Thickness is 11.5 mm. Also available on steel bracelet Ref SIN 60b. Price £1,545
