Their dials are just so… bland. It’s always black and white and minimalist to a fault. Like there’s nothing interesting. Even Nomos has splashes of color here and there and play on typography. For example Nomo’s simplest watch - Tangente, has a slight splash of color with blue hands. Other minimal dress watches usually differentiate with dial finishing - like with sunburst or a textured dial. But nope, Sinn design language is just: stainless steel, pure black, sans-serif numbers, and white indices. That’s it. Yet they are super loved in here. Help me understand?

    Sometimes, there is more than meets the eye.

    Sinn tends to have a lot of that - value, excellent (over)engineering, purposely understated looks. And they do have splashes of color and some interesting design elements from time to time, so maybe check again?

    That said, they are German, so expect a culturally-consistent product.
