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?
It’s a fashion accessory meant to signal that the wearer doesn’t care about fashion!
Joking aside, I do appreciate that aesthetic personally. The “function dictating form” design language is attractive to me. And there’s that added benefit that those “tool watch” kinds of designs generally allow for less delicate handling, and less averse reactions to signs of wear. But of course it’s not an ACTUAL or in any way important tool for me.
