What would a fair price be for a slightly used Sinn 256 with bracelet/box/papers etc. etc. be? |

I almost bought one last year pre-owned for $1200. but passed as I am searching for the Heuer Bundeswehr Chrono(see link) that the Sinn 256 was based on....but if another Sinn 256 came along at a good price I would probably jump on it...they are awesome imhohand6.gif http://www.onthedash.com/Guide/_Chronographs/67.Bundeswehr/ |

So what your saying is that $1200 is a reasonable and fair price? I'm asking because I've found one and am trying to decide whether I should try to shmooze ;)the wife into letting me spend the money:D. I might also be able to point you towards one of those Heur's. Let me check before I say I can for sure. Last edited on Sat Feb 2nd, 2008 02:48 am by murphy j |

It looks to be in Excellent shape. It was purchased from a Sinn AD and comes with everything it left the factory with. It's a style and design I like but with a baby on the way I'm trying to find a way to justify it to my wife:? and myself. |

I chose a single life over the family stuff. :) So I only have to argue with myself over do I want some watch now or wait for something else to come along. hehehe :cool: ;) |

I think I'll be able to convince myself, but damn if I don't want that 'rose dial' Tudor Sub(i.e. grail watch:)) when I get back from Iraq. I think I need to keep looking at it for a little self enabling help:D . |

LOL But looking at several and trying to behave so I can go after another grail soon but I am thinking I may have to jump on something soon. Maybe something small. But that is a very cool Sin I almost bought one of those last Summer too. Love my 857. hearteyes.gif |

Ideally it would be a 'Military issued" sub, but those are so sought after that the prices are a little outside what I think I can get away with. I keep looking though:D. |

I've got a 256TA which I love but just don't wear too much. It really is a sweet watcj. CJ sold his 256TY over the summer I think. Hope you can finesse that one, Murph!! |

Thanks Oscar. I just talked to the wife and she didn't see a problem with the money being spent . Now do I REALLY need another watch? Probably not, but I won't get to get this kind of watch often;). I guess I better try to grab it while the grabbings good:D. |

I spoke to the seller and the watch was still availible . I sent the money and it will be shipped on Monday. I guess I'm going to be the proud owner of a Sinn 256 with all accoutrements . |

Unfortunately I won't be able to do any pics:(. The earliest I'll be able to see and touch it will be if I get to come home for the baby in June. I definately don't want to risk having my wife send it to me in Iraq. I'll just have 2 presents waiting for me when I get home; a baby and a new watch:). If you want to see what it looks like just go over to the PX at MWR. |
