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?

    I know a lot of the Sinns do feature the black dial, minimalist aesthetic, but I own this version of a 356 and it is my absolute favorite watch. If you deep dive on Sinn, they really do have something to offer for a lot of different tastes. The 556 does not appeal to me at all, and I dont like their divers much either, but the 356 i have is mesmerizing.

    They make a really cool copper dial version as well.
