    NICE VINTAGE SINN'S ON THE BAY

    There has been a few nice vintage Sinn's go through E-bay this last week.
    Non of them very common, or at least to me

    A V7750 Fleiger with power reserve indicator.





    Along the lines of the 142 I guess, with what is described as a Lemania 5100 but might be the 5012







    And a what is described as a Cal 726. It's all in German, so not to sure if it's an auto or a manual wind but a nice Tricompax layout.



    All pics from E-Bay

    The Tricompax would be my favourite out of those beauties :)

    Yes that was my favourite :wink: It went for £870, sadly out of my league. The Tricompax went for £938. The other one is still on going.

    The first one is not a vintage, it's from the current production range (956).

    No, it's a 5012 or a 5100 sans 24 hr subdial. The 1341 has a different shaped rotor.

    The middle one looks really nice - never seen one like that before. The French date wheel is a nice touch.
    The top one is a 956 from the current range - saved up for a long, long time for one of those :
    :)


    regards,
    Nick

    I like them, but the middle one, well, not so much. Date in French? What were they thinking :D

    The one with the Tricompax layout is the star of the show - Guinand have quite a few interesting models in their line-up that look remarkably similar to it. Of course they would :wink:



    Cheers
