Sinn 556 A on Strap

Product Details

Yes, finally we have them again - the Sinn 556 A (Arabic numerals) is back in stock!

In creating the Sinn 556 A, Sinn's goal was to offer their most affordable watch in the line, while at the same time maintaining the quality and engineering standards that have set Sinn apart.

The Sinn 556 A features a case size at 38.5 mm which is satinized. This finish results in a slightly more polished look while at the same time retaining some characteristics of a matte finish.

Other features of the Sinn 556 A include:

Case in 316L surgical stainless steel which is satinized
Sapphire crystals on both sides of the watch
Double coated anti-reflective covering
Dual seal crown lock to improve water resistance

Four Arabic numerals feature the same dial layout as used in the Sinn 7 and 8 series.

This watch is fitted with a Sinn black calf leather strap and tang buckle. Water resistant to 200 meters.

Please note that Sinn can and does change the strap type for this watch model. The picture above may or may not correspond exactly with the strap you receive.

Although the straps are always black, Sinn sometimes uses black stitching, and at other times white. Further, they sometimes use a smooth somewhat shiny finish and at other times a more matte look.

"First Sinn Watch"

Posted by: Jeff Hay

Comments about this watch: Excellent craftsmanship. First watch I've purchased in this price category and I am very happy with WatchBuys service and my Sinn watch.

"Fantastic Piece!"

Posted by: Peter A

Comments about this watch: I already own many Sinn watches including the 556I and so I knew what to expect with the 556A. The 556A has the classic Sinn pilot dial which I love so much. The time is instantly legible, the lume is excellent and this is the only model sporting that lovely dial that comes in a satin finished case. The fit and finish is absolutely top notch as in every Sinn watch. This series has a smaller case size than I have worn in the past few years but on a Maratac Zulu strap it feels a bit larger and is ... - more details

"Very simple but elegant timepiece"

Posted by: Jason Jarvis

Comments about this watch: I ordered this watch after debating a series of slightly more and slightly less expensive timepieces. I had it in mind to buy a watch that "watch people" would know and like but "non watch people" would never have heard of. I wanted a classic look watch without a lot of hoopla or more than 40mm, that I could wear to work or out to a formal affair. I have been extremely pleased with the Sinn so far. I have two minor issues: one is that the power reserve seems fairly small to meit really needs reg... - more details

"Crazy about this watch"

Posted by: Didier

Comments about this watch: After much looking at other German watches like Damasko and Glasshutte, I chose this model to replace my Breitling Chronospace.

"What is it about this watch?"

Posted by: Jim

Comments about this watch: Balance and Proportion that's what. It seems that watch devotees, including me, are obsessed with this watch (or its cousins 656, and 856). Everything is in perfect balance. The size and shape of the numbers, the way the hour and minute hands are in proportion and tapered just right. By contrast, take a look at the current Bell & Ross 123 or 126. Those large, skinny numerals look awful. I have an IWC Pilot Mark XVI, a Rolex Explorer II, a Fortis Cosmonaut and a Muhle Glashutte SAR; but the 556A ... - more details

"Nice watch!"

Posted by: Dante

Comments about this watch: Great look and feel. Had been debating between several pilot style watches, but didn't want something over 41mm. Went with this over the IWC and I am very happy with my choice. Unique and well made. Keeps very good time. Word of warning the case does scratch easily.
