de a r Cu Sto M e r , We know from numerous conversations that the people who buy our watches do so out of conviction. this includes people with a pronounced affinity to technology who are fascinated, for example, by the solutions we have devised for protection from magnetic fields and scratch resistance.

– with the aim of making what's good even better. Most of our best developments are yet to come! i am delighted that you have decided to buy a Sinn timepiece and hope that it will continue to give you pleasure for many years to come.
S i n n Spe zi a luh r e n zu F r ank F u rt a M M a i n it was back in 1961 that pilot and blind-flying instructor helmut Sinn founded the company. Since then, we have been committed to producing high- specification mechanical watches.

Advancements in endurance testing take, for example, the absolutely condensation- free, anti-reflective, german submarine steel diving watch – made possible by hYdro technology. other examples include a chronometer chronograph fashioned from a 22-carat gold alloy that is as hard as stainless steel and a chronometer with a magnetic resistance 20 times the standard.

Standard for pilot's Watches (teStaF) by aachen university of applied Sciences since 2012. the teStaF, the result of a research project at the initiative of Sinn Spezialuhren, ensures that a pilot's watch meets all timekeeping requirements during flight operations in accordance with visual and instrumental flight regulations and is suitable for professional use.

Ongoing advancement in technology and quality our top priority has always been to develop watches that offer superior performance – both in daily and in professional use. Which is why our engineers are working continually to identify which innovative methods, materials and technologies are best suited for optimising our watches.
9 0 0 pi lot Our pilots' watches have long set standards for function and technology. Thus it is only logical that the 900 PILOT seamlessly continues this tradition. At the same time, the chronograph has a contemporary look. The result is a chronograph that meets the highest standards for precision and esthetics.
S in the model name stands for "Schwarz" (black) – signifying the black hard coating of the watch. There is an overriding SINN priority behind this – the suitability of each watch for everyday use.
9 0 0 d ia pal The 900 DIAPAL brings together a number of different SINN technologies which, when combined, yield maximum reliability in terms of time measure- ment and functionality. Worthy of particular mention here is DIAPAL Technol- ogy for a lubrication-free anchor escapement.

Time adjustment (crown position 3) in crown position 3, the motion is paused. this helps you to set the watch precisely. to set the time accurately, we recommend moving the hand past the desired minute marker and then adjusting it counter-clockwise. please make sure that the date changes at midnight and not at midday when adjusting the time.

Using the chronograph to measure time the chronograph is operated by means of buttons a and B. the measurement starts when button a is pressed once. pressing this button again stops the measurement. the measurement is resumed by pressing button a once more. this allows you to add up and record the cumulative time.

Using the pilot's bezel to measure time the pilot's bezel is an outer ring divided into minutes, and can be moved manually in both directions. the triangle glows in the dark. it can be used in a number of ways, including to measure important lengths of time. For example, you can set the marking to the beginning of the time span to be measured, or you can use it to indicate the end of a given span of time.

Adjusting the length of the silicone strap 1. release the silicone band from the clasp. to do so, use the pointed end of the band replacement tool to push the spring bar out of the fastener. the other side of the spring bar can be removed while the fastener is open, enabling you to remove the silicone band.

How to install the strap with a small butterfly clasp there are two ways of installing the spring bar using the small butterfly clasp. We recommend inserting the bar in the opening shown here in red. Should the silicone strap be too tight, use the second option (shown here in white). option 1 option 2 if you want to shorten the overall length of the silicone strap, refer to steps 1 to 3.

Perfect freedom from fogging all watches in this series are water-resistant as per din 8310. But even with watertight instruments, the air enclosed in the case contains water in a gaseous state. and air can also penetrate the seals and acrylic glasses. When the water vapour in the case condenses into liquid, the instruments are impossible to read.
