Links to online auctions and other sites: Links to online auctions, dealer sites or other listings of items are permitted, but you should be careful to ensure that such listings will comply with our other ChronoTrader Policies. In addition, we request that sellers linking to online auctions or listings offer some benefit or accomodation to ChronoTrader readers (for example, some discount or an undertaking to end an auction early, to keep a watch "in the family").

FS: Sinn 1550SG (Heuer Bund)

Up for sale is a vintage Heuer Bundeswehr with a Sinn branded dial in excellent condition. Movement is the Valjoux 230 flyback chronograph.

The watch was just fully serviced by Craig Bergsma at Chronodeco and is running very well. I have movement photos and a service invoice that I can supply on request.

The watch winds and sets smoothly. The chronograph functions are in perfect working order and all hands reset properly to 0. The original handset and numerals have a nice, creamy patina, and the case, crystal and bezel are in terrific condition. I purchased this watch from an avid Sinn collector last year and have only worn it a handful of times - I haven’t even removed the case back sticker.

$2400 head-only, shipped and insured in CONUS. Payment via bank wire. Open to international deals but all shipping and import costs are the responsibility of the buyer.

For reference, all of the variants of the Heuer Bund, including the Sinn branded versions, are documented here:
