It's obvious at a glance what the 103 model series was created for: uncompromising functionality. They are designed to resemble cockpit instruments, in keeping with the Sinn tradition. After all, the first watches Sinn produced were mechanical aviation clocks for professional use. The patented technologies Sinn have developed over the years are now also part of this classic Sinn chronograph. The 103 Ti DIAPAL with its polished stainless steel case features a lubricant-free escapement (DIAPAL Technology). Sinn use special combinations of materials that create no friction, even without lubrication, thus ensuring the long-term accuracy of the movement. To perfect the technical design, this model is equipped with Ar-Dehumidifying Technology. The movement is embedded in an environment that is almost completely dry. This reduces aging and prevents the crystal from fogging when exposed to sudden cold, and ensures reliable functionality and accuracy for a longer period of time. If you are looking for a traditional pilot's chronograph equipped with a second time zone, a captive pilot's bezel and the latest technology, you will appreciate this model.
All Sinn DIAPAL's have a five year guarantee.

Additional Product Details
Sinn Watches was formed in 1961 by the legendary pilot and flight instructor Helmut Sinn. They began manufacturing flight watches based on his extensive aviation experience, this was primarily based on Mr. Sinn's dissatisfaction with the watches that were available for pilot and navigational purposes at that time. His own designs incorporated the features and functionality that he felt more fit for purpose as an instrument watch. This is a design philosophy that has transcended the company's culture right through to the present day. Sinn is now the world's most eminent manufacturer of high quality, precision, functional and purposeful instrument watches. From the beginning, their emphasis was on creating special purpose instruments that performed under extremely adverse operating conditions such as high speed, high and low pressures and altitudes, intense heat or pressure, extreme cold, high magnetic interference, and submergence in liquids. Sinn are becoming increasingly known for their instrument watches, and are today a force to be reckoned with as they lead the way in instrument watch design. The company changed hands in 1994 when Lothar Schmidt formerly of IWC assumed control and further expanded the boundaries of Sinn’s high tolerance manufacturing expertise. Over the past decade, Sinn has pioneered some innovative new technologies, including oil filled watch chambers to enable operation under extreme pressures, argon gas filled watches to prevent moisture infiltration, impact resistant gear suspensions, and new micro-lubricating techniques. Their timepieces are standard equipment in some of the most dangerous and adverse environments on earth - little surprise their watches are issued to the German military and elite forces. Above all the watches are manufactured and marketed to the world at large. Like the designs and their application areas, the pricing of the Sinn watches is most aggressive, making them available to most people. Due to distribution agreements Sinn watches can only be shipped to the UK and Ireland and certain countries where there is no Sinn agent assigned to that territory. Sinn watches are covered by a two or three year manufacturers warranty depending on the model.
