Man, all of us have to do something to get this channel more recognition. Your production value, method of presentation, opinions, etc., are all some of the best on UA-cam, and 40K subscribers just isn't enough.
Absolutely. There isn't a better produced channel on watches out there that has the balance of humour, tech specs, thoughts. Re cinematography/editing - everyone else isnt even in the same league.
@@itsgarydevlin I think watchfinder has the best shots, but very hard to listen to the way the guy talks and how pretentious he is. This channel is great
Many watch channels are pretentious and can bore the viewer with details we don’t really care about. Yours are relevant, logical, crafted with refinement and an enjoyable style. I really enjoy your videos and more importantly they actually influence my thinking on watches. Thank you very much
Our hobby may be borderline nonsensical, but within the confines of it's nature, it probably doesn't get more "no nonsense" than with a Sinn. Great video!
Great video. I own this one and it is one of my favorites. Don’t see it ever leaving the collection. And if you want a change from the bracelet, it works well with a wide variety of NATO and leather straps.
I own the non-utc 856 since 2012. I love it as much today as I did the first day. The case still looks perfect and in addition to the hardness benefits of tegimented, the color is very cool. And it's just a great case shape/size. The bracelet didn't hold up quite as well and kind of aged but it's great. One thing to keep in mind, that I am sure many know, but, due to the proprietary tech in here like the inert gas and moisture capsule, that service, if done by RGM in the USA, or by Sinn is not cheap. I paid $540 back in 2019. As watch service goes, that isn't CRAZY , but.....I am sure you can find it for much less but who knows. The watch only cost around ~$1200 so.... But it's a keeper for me.
Thanks for injecting some fun and witty humour into your delivery, unto a hobby that is more typically approached with staunch sobriety and haughtiness - much like this comment.
Great video and great review of a great watch! I actually own the non-GMT version of this watch and it's been my one-watch collection daily driver for coming up on 10 years now. I just don't need another watch, this one is as near perfect as it gets for me. I have your 856 review saved and return to it every now and again just to check it out - I really enjoy your well considered and objective reviews and your little dashes of humor tossed in are right on! Excellent work and please keep at it!
It's my dayly watch (black model). I just can't get the same satisfaction with my other watches then with this one. The accuracy is insane. Got it serviced couple of months ago and I'm currently standing at +2 / -1 secs a day. A true work of art.
Used to own this one and honestly I have no idea why I ever sold it. I liked it back then and I like it now... Also, I really like your videos. Keep up the great work bud!
This is a very impressive watch. I have a Tegemented U50, which is apparently impervious to damage, and is super accurate. It gains 6 seconds... a week! The relatively small premium for the UTC function makes this the version to go for, but to me, living in the UK where everywhere else is in a different time zone, a Traveller GMT movement makes more sense. If the AR technology increases the service interval then it's worth having. CEO Lothar Schmitt is an engineer rather than a stylist or accountant so I feel confident that any technology Sinn brings to their watches will be relevant to the intended use. This is a good review, thank you 😊.
You've got another subscriber, from me! For one, I've been hungover the purchase of my Sinn 856. Your filming and narrative of your video urged me. Now, I have done it. Oh yes. Your other videos have been watched. Keep it up.
I have owned the 556, 856, and 857, and have the same issue as you putting the watch on (6:22 in the video). Try sliding the watch on with the watch face on the palm side of your hand (watch face upside down) and then rotating when it clears your thumb. Works for me. HTH
Excellent watch review. That it happened to be about one of my favorite grail watches was a nice bonus. The other nice bonus was that you showed it on a wide range of really sexy straps and told us who made them. Great stuff.
I F’n love your sense of humour. Tegemented steel From caller time zones you teach it all. I really should buy something with this steel for my work watch.
Sinn is a solid brand and makes solid watches we all love. I personally own the 856 UTC, love it and wear it all the time. Also I have the 556 I Emerald Special Edition which is really beautiful and IMO a true dress watch. Something new to Sinn. Another brand I like a lot is Damasko which makes an awesome watches too. Just as addictive as the Sinns😀😀😀
Found you only recently, but really dig your presentation style. And this watch. Man, that's a beauty. If been lusting after a Sinn for a few years, but having trouble choosing one (would love to buy more, but ain't gonna happen). I find the 556 so close to what I want...but is just a wee bit too simple. Also love that this one uses the hardened steel, and is GMT on top of that. Looks great on the other straps of course too!
I love my 856 non-utc for the cleaness of the dial. Couldn’t agree more with the durability. I love not worrying about messing this watch up no matter what I am doing. I wear it on a Barton rubber strap most the time. Never take it off. Great video on this superb watch!
Great content. I own the Sinn U50 and absolutely love it. The other problem I have with the clasp is that it’s not particularly attractive looking. The clasp on Sinn rubber straps works beautifully and looks much more refined.
Excellent review, as always. I've had my eye on the non-UTC 856 for a while. One advantage of the Sellita SW330 use is, they've now all been replaced with the SW330-2 for any new orders (per a Microbrand's response to me). This new revision has 56 hours instead of 42 hours of power reserve. It also makes the Sinn 856 price seem a bit easier to justify, in my watch nerd mind. Christopher Ward was the first to use the new variant (C63/C63 GMT...and now the Lander IV), but that has since slowly spread to other brands. I noticed this and the regular 856 (using the SW300) now also state 56 hours power reserve in the description. It may not sound like much, but the ability to leave a watch for 2 whole days (with a little extra) while wearing extra watches in the collection is a nice step up over 1 day. I do NOT believe this upgrade is coming to the SW200 line, but that sure would be nice.
@@drmanhattan225 I think the best way would be to wind it up fully and then just see how long the power reserve lasts. It new one is supposed to be ~56 hours. The old one was 42.
I love my Sinn 103 for all the same reasons and this just makes me want to buy another. Solid review, funny/interesting/informative copy, and great quality production. Well done.
Sinn are kind of hard to explain if you haven't seen one in real life. The finish and hardening are so great it catches the light and almost makes it glow rather than shine. They also have some real character especially for the trained eye! I love my 556 MoP, the regulation on these watches are also kind of nuts, I usually had to adjust my Seiko a couple of times a week, but the Sinn just keeps making absolute precise time, a real every-day companion!
This watch is up next for when there's something to celebrate or commemorate. Thanks for this excellent video, turning me onto your channel. Subscribed!
I recently bought a 856 UTC as apresent for myself. The bead blasted metal and the tegiment process give the metal a very nice finish and medium grey colour that's quite different from the 556A I also have. Whereas I sometimes feel the 556A to be on the small side at 38.5mm the 856 is a good size for my wrist, not too small but not too big either. I do feel Sinn placed the date window on the 556A in a better, more elegant way. Perhaps the UTC function was a limiting factor? I do love how Sinn executed the H-links using hexagonal bolts. While it has a more cluttered dial than the 556A it still is an unmistakable Sinn watch with its bold 12-3-6-9 dial.
I found your video after purchasing a 856 S UTC at Sinn's old town Frankfurt store about 10 days ago and it's everything you said (+/-) but you forgot to mention its tightly regulated/accurate movement. Like you I hate scratches (hasn't stopped me from wearing any watches cheap or pricey) and was reluctant to buy a black PVD/DLC but was assured by Sinn folks that black tegimented is their most scratch resistant finish, so time will tell. Thank you for a good review and a strap show.
Great review, Evan, thank you. Watch is really nice. Have wanted the 856 non-UTC for quite a while, but like the pam0111 never pulled the trigger, and now the fever has worn off.
As someone who has worn watches as a barista, coffee roaster and in warehouses either Sinn is as hard as you say or your buddy Brian works in a pillow warehouse. That's incredible technology.
Man Sinn just nail it with so much in their lineup, in a way few do. I got a 556i a couple of years ago as my entrance into mechanical watches, and I still just can't find myself wanting anything more or anything less.
@@YoureTerrific Great video! Bang-for-buck wise, I think Sinn makes the best tool watches. I visited the Sinn factory in Frankfurt shortly after I bought my 556 A (the version with 4 large Arabic numerals) in 2018. It has by far the best legibility of all my (dozen or so) watches. BTW, although it was much cheaper than the 856 UTC (at only 1020 Euro at the time), the bracelet has 5 micro-adjustment holes and, although not really a dive watch, even a dive extension.
I own the Sinn U1 SDR. It's a really great tool watch with exceptional diving capabilities. Am no diver and I don't work in harsh environments. Nonetheless, having the tegimented steel "protection" gives me plenty peace of mind to go about my dailies and not get too worried about scratches. My Sinn is reaching 8 years old this year and it's like new 😉 Will check out this 856 UTC when I get a chance.. love the dimensions.
Love my Sinn’s, I’ve owned a couple. I will though complain about the clasp! Yes, it works, it’s not uncomfortable, etc. It’s just that the rest of the watch is so thoroughly designed and well built that the stamped clasp stands out as an afterthought, looks and feels out of place. Feels like it belongs on an entry level micro brand piece (nothing against them), not a $2000 German watch. Love Sinn, I’ve owned 3 and currently own a U50. It has the same sub par clasp.
Every time when I see a wrist shot of a watch, I look in a corner of a screen for the information about the dimensions of this wrist, especially if an author fails to say what this wrist size is. Too bad that too many creators just being thoughtless and ignore this. They do not say what their wrist size is, they do not provide written information about it in their videos, they do not post it in a video description. Less than terrific, in my opinion, man! Other vice good and useful video. Thumbs up!
I've got this with the 60 min timing bezel. Fantastic watch, I just have the usual complaints about the bracelet and clasp being a little... unrefined.
Great video but the lack of macros meant it was hard to see details when viewing on my phone. Would love to see that added in future videos to really make them sing.
Great video! I've been watching for a long time and just subscribed! Also, I love your non-industry (assumption) opinion on watches. Keep up the great work!
I bought the new Speedie and planned on selling my good ol mr reliable 556a towards it.... Yet I can't bring myself to sell it and I find myself somehow enjoying wearing the Sinn more!? It just has so much character, and the legibility is to die for!
I have the PVD coated 856 UTC. Been my daily driver forever. The perfect watch that makes watch dorks go "oh shit, rad!" and normies don't recognize it at all. A perfect watch, of which Sinn has several.
I am ready to pull the trigger on this one for the last month. My problem is that I do not want to own more than 4 watches, the 856 will be the fifth and its style has elements from all my other watches. If I have to find a weak spot on that, it would be the clasp. I'd like it to be a little more cleverly engineered, with an extension and push-button release. Bottom line, for me this is the one collection watch, it just does it all.
while I wish Sinn would use C3 lume more often, but I get why they don’t- It’s a contrast thing. If you look at a white dial Sinn 104 (C3) next to a white dial Sinn 105 (C1) you’ll see the difference immediately. C1 is just more of a pure white vs C3 which aids in contrast / aesthetics at the cost of overall luminescent potency.
Although never holding a Sinn in the metal, i can only imagine the 856UTC is a fine watch. The brand has it's fans for a good reason. As i move along this hobby, my taste has changed. A non-bezel ( diver or pilot ) watch is what i'm know drawn to. It still needs to be in the "tool watch " realm and for now it needs a date complication. The weight is a huge factor, it don'y like heavy, i think all the years of wearing G-Shocks have spoiled me. I like lume, but it doesn't have to compete with my Seiko divers, so if its ok, then i'm ok.
Great vid as always mate. Having owned a 104 I totally agree with you regarding how good they are. Just a quick question... How big is your wrist...... 😂😂😂

“No nonSinnse”, if you will
Big fan of Sinn and have had a 556 and two 103s. Impeccably made workhorses. And I agree about the bracelet; it’s top notch and comfortable.

Movement Service, yes. But to add another reference point: I had the crystal AND bezel of my 857utc replaced for 190E (this is in Germany though).
The day I get to watch one of your new videos is a good day. Keep up the good work!
Love Sinn and appreciate your overview of the 856 UTC. I've owned the U1, U50, 103, and 104, but this 856 might be next on the list :)
私も856UTCを買いました。
今まで煌びやかな装飾文字盤の様々な時計を所持してきましたが、シンプルで圧倒的な視認性の良さと傷を気にせず海にも入れるタフネスさが他を圧倒しています！
今まで買ってきた他の時計を手放して、Sinn856を人生の友にしようと考えています。

I am ready to pull the trigger on this one for the last month. My problem is that I do not want to own more than 4 watches, the 856 will be the fifth and its style has elements from all my other watches.
If I have to find a weak spot on that, it would be the clasp. I'd like it to be a little more cleverly engineered, with an extension and push-button release.
Bottom line, for me this is the one collection watch, it just does it all.
I'm surprised you didn't mention the outside AR coating, which I don't like.
while I wish Sinn would use C3 lume more often, but I get why they don’t- It’s a contrast thing. If you look at a white dial Sinn 104 (C3) next to a white dial Sinn 105 (C1) you’ll see the difference immediately. C1 is just more of a pure white vs C3 which aids in contrast / aesthetics at the cost of overall luminescent potency.
Really shines on a strap!
Great video as always 👍🙂
beautiful watch
Although never holding a Sinn in the metal, i can only imagine the 856UTC is a fine watch. The brand has it's fans for a good reason. As i move along this hobby, my taste has changed. A non-bezel ( diver or pilot ) watch is what i'm know drawn to. It still needs to be in the "tool watch " realm and for now it needs a date complication. The weight is a huge factor, it don'y like heavy, i think all the years of wearing G-Shocks have spoiled me. I like lume, but it doesn't have to compete with my Seiko divers, so if its ok, then i'm ok.
Superb video, really top class!
I love your videos, they make me notice watches that normally I would not pay attention to. Still.... you didn't have to sell the Santos :D
its weird, the U-50 has amazing lume, I wonder why they don't extend that to a pilot watch? Love the grey color of the tegiment.
Great vid as always mate. Having owned a 104 I totally agree with you regarding how good they are.
Just a quick question... How big is your wrist...... 😂😂😂
