Kind of thought this would never happen, but to be very honest I'm just not getting the charge out of watches like I once did. I've been wearing a Timex Easy Reader for the last couple weeks and haven't really thought about wearing anything else. I feel, therefore, that I should get this into the hands of someone who will wear it and enjoy it rather than sitting in a box while I wear a Timex and a Casio.

Me: I have plenty of excellent feedback both buying and selling on here. Relatively long time member who has (in the past) engaged in discussion on the forum.

You: the same, please. At least have positive feedback.

The watch: the darling-est of forum darlings, and the most monstrous of strap monsters, the Sinn 556i.

Specs: Watch diameter (mm): 38.5
• Watch height (mm): 11.0
• Lug width (mm): 20
• Lug to lug (mm): 45.5
• Weight - head only (grams): 65
• Water resistance: 200 meters
• Case back: Transparent
• Case finish: Satinized
• Case metal: Stainless steel
• Dial color: Black
• Front crystal: Sapphire
• Movement: Automatic mechanical

The details:
Well worn. I wore this as my daily for the last 3.5 years. I purchased it on WUS from the original owner, who hardly wore it at all. The bezel is scratched. They are hard to photograph, and the satinized finish does do a good job of making the watch present well, but there are scratches, as well as two nicks on the bezel. Case sides and back are in good used condition. Timekeeping has been good for me and roughly 7-8 spd. This is simply my anecdotal experience of the watch and is not a guarantee of future performance.

Would make a great daily or hard wearing watch for someone who plans to wear this watch like it was intended.

Comes on a lovely and comfortable Fluco Nubuck leather strap in "Whiskey." Seriously, these guys are great. I have three. Very comfortable and look better with wear. This strap has been worn by me twice. Also comes with a selection of inexpensive straps that work well with the watch. Curved end rubber strap from Amazon, CNS cotton strap, and single pass elastic strap.

Comes with full box and papers, even stickers from its purchase from WatchBuys in Nov. 2019.

Payment via PayPal G&S (I'll eat the fee) for our mutual protection; shipping on me via USPS Priority 2-day within CONUS. Shipping elsewhere is possible but will require some discussion.

Edit: sorry for the fuzzies in the pictures. Picked the wrong day to wear a cashmere sweater.
