Sinn 856 S UTC
Model: 856.020
Sinn’s tried and tested cockpit clocks and instruments served as the inspiration for the 856 watch collection which features many of the same characteristics and several enhancements as well as Magnetic Field Protection of up to 80,000 A/m to enhance functionality. An added feature on this collection is the black hard coating over the special tegiment surface finish that Sinn developed to increase the hardness on the case and crown to elevate scratch resistance well-above normal stainless steel levels.
The technical specifications of the 856 S UTC provide impressive proof of Sinn’s craftsmanship in the area of instrument watches. The 856 S UTC features a range of technologies which, together, guarantee maximum reliability even in the most extreme of conditions.
The second time zone on the 856 S UTC is scaled on a 24-hour basis with a hand which helps to locate the points of the compass. The hand is designed in the form of an arrow for this very purpose. The basic principle is simple: in the northern hemisphere, you hold the watch horizontally and turn it so that the 12-hour hand is pointing towards the sun – the 24-hour hand will then be pointing North. In the southern hemisphere, the same procedure will cause the hand to point South.
The dial design ensures especially clear readability with maximum contrast of the hands, indices and numerals against the glare-free matt black dial. Extremely large numerals, coated with luminous material, allow intuitive orientation, even in dimly lit environments. Even the striking hand profiles have been coated with special long-lasting, luminous paint to ensure accurate legibility at a glance.
Whether you wear your sleek 856 S UTC on leather, silicone or matching black-hard coated, tegiment-hardened H-link metal bracelet, this watch is robust, reliable and timeless (in a couple of zones!).
