  • Page 9 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 of up to 80,000 a/m.
  • Page 10 (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/or instrumental flight regulations and is suitable for professional use.
  • Page 11 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.
  • Page 12 (VFR) and/or instrumental flight rules (IFR). The EZM 10 TESTAF, the 103 Ti TESTAF, 103 Ti UTC TESTAF and the 857 UTC TESTAF were the first SINN watches to undergo and pass the strict test procedures.
  • Page 13 testaF now provides the answers. For example, a pilot’s watch must withstand rapid temperature changes and changes in ambient pressure up to 0.044 bar – equivalent to an altitude of about 21,300 metres. a pilot’s watch is thus subjected to several thousand pressure change cycles in order to simulate the actual stress conditions on a pilot’s wrist.
  • Page 14 the list of technical and functional specifications describe precisely and unambiguously the time measurement requirements during flight in the following categories. 1. Functionality • required functions during flights operating under visual and/or instrument flight rules • readability in daylight and in darkness •...

  • Page 20 Using the pilot’s bezel to measure time the pilot’s bezel 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.
