DEAR CUSTOMER,

We know from numerous

conversations that the people

who buy our watches do so out of

conviction. This includes people with

a pronounced afﬁnity to technology

who are fascinated, for example,

by the solutions we have devised

for protection from magnetic ﬁelds

and scratch resistance. Some of our

customers, such as divers, pilots and

the German GSG 9 special police

unit, rely on their watches in their

respective careers because their lives

depends on it.

They all swear by the performance,

resilience and durability, as well

as the quality and precision of our

watches. That is why the world’s

largest classiﬁcation society DNV GL

(formerly Germanischer Lloyd,

Hamburg) regularly tests and certiﬁes

the water and pressure resistance of

our diving watches.

We have selected pilot’s watches tested and certiﬁed to the technical

standard for pilot’s watches (TESTAF) by Aachen University of Applied

Sciences. The TESTAF ensures that a pilot’s watch meets all timekeeping

requirements during ﬂight operations in accordance with visual and/or

instrumental ﬂight regulations and is suitable for professional use. Functionality

is our top priority and ultimately determines the design. Only the technical

features that are really needed can be found on our watches. Because we

believe that products have to speak for themselves.

The basic question that we ask ourselves is: which innovative technologies

and materials can be employed for our craft and provide solutions for

rendering our watches even more practical for everyday use? It is often worth

indulging in a little lateral thinking to see what is going on in other industrial

sectors or ﬁelds of science. We repeatedly go to the limits of physical

resources to upgrade our watches – with the aim of making what’s good

even better. Most of our best developments are yet to come!

I am delighted that you have decided to buy a SINN timepiece and hope

that it will continue to give you pleasure for many years to come.

Yours sincerely,

Lothar Schmidt

Aviation, in all its forms, combines emotion and

technical excellence like almost no other mode of

transport. It’s not just pilots who have always

demonstrated their connection to ﬂying by wearing

a special timepiece – the pilot’s watch.

In the early days of aviation, the pilot’s watch was

one of the primary navigation instruments

alongside the aviation map and a compass.

Charles Lindberg would rather have gone without a

radio than a second timepiece on his legendary

transatlantic ﬂight. To this day, most ﬂight

procedures in instrument ﬂying carry a

corresponding time stamp.

“Pilot’s watch” is however not a protected term. It is

often used for purely design-oriented models, which

hardly do justice to the technical requirements for a

ﬂight instrument. It was therefore natural for the

Department of Aeronautics and Astronautics at the

Aachen University of Applied Sciences, as one of

the leading educational and research facilities for

aviation, to take on the development of a test

standard based on the ofﬁcial certiﬁcation

procedure for general aviation. A considerable

FOREWORD AACHEN UNIVERSITY OF APPLIED SCIENCES

DEPARTMENT OF AEROSPACE TECHNOLOGY

number of pilots, airline companies and engineers were involved in creating

the requirements and the development of the extensive test procedures.

TESTAF, the technical standard for the pilot’s watch, was ofﬁcially presented to

the public in the autumn of 2012, in the deliveries hangar of the Airbus Helicopter

company (formerly Eurocopter) in Donauwörth. The advisory board set up for

this purpose, consisting of recognised experts in aviation and the watch industry,

will ensure the future continuous updating and technical advancement of the

contents and test procedures.

The team at Sinn Spezialuhren, led by Lothar Schmidt, of course immediately

took on this challenge and met all requirements with ﬂying colours after an

intensive development phase. You hold the result in your hands today, the

TESTAF-certiﬁed pilot’s watch – a very special timepiece.

Sincerely

Prof. Dr.-Ing. Frank Janser

It was back in 1961 that pilot and blind-ﬂying instructor Helmut Sinn founded

the company. Since then, we have been committed to producing high-

speciﬁcation mechanical watches. In 1994, the graduate engineer Lothar

Schmidt took over the company. This marked the beginning of a new era

for the SINN brand, because the new owner took a decisive step towards

more innovation. Under his leadership, new technologies and materials were

introduced, thus providing the crucial incentives for our company’s evolution

and gradual emergence as an insider’s tip for lovers of ﬁne watches. Today,

our name stands for technical innovations – much to the delight of both the

trade and our customers alike.

Advancements in endurance testing

Take, for example, the absolutely condensation-

free, anti-reﬂective, german submarine steel diving

watch – made possible by HYDRO Technology.

Other examples include a chronometer

chronograph fashioned from a 22-carat gold alloy

that is as hard as stainless steel and a chronometer

with a magnetic resistance of up to 80,000 A/m.

There are also watches with a clockwork

mechanism optimally protected from aging

by an inert gas and integrated dehumidifying

capsule. The list would not be complete without

mentioning the development of mission timers

(Einsatzzeitmesser or EZM in German) for ﬁreﬁghters,

for special police units and border patrol guards

as well as Temperature Resistance Technology

to keep mechanical watches performing at

temperatures ranging from − 45 °C to + 80 °C. This

technology has proven its worth in the EZM 10

TESTAF model, for example, used as part of the

ofﬁcial approvals procedure for Airbus Helicopter’s

(formerly Eurocopter) EC 145 T2 high-performance

helicopter. Hot and cold climate tests and

high-altitude experiments were carried out in the

deserts of the USA, the Rocky Mountains and the

frozen wastes of Canada. The watch was worn

unprotected, outside the pilot’s overall, during cold

climate tests at temperatures reaching − 45 °C.

Innovations and certiﬁcations

The world’s largest classiﬁcation society for maritime safety DNV GL (formerly

Germanischer Lloyd, Hamburg), has been testing our diving watches

for pressure and water resistance since 2005. As part of DNV GL’s ofﬁcial

certiﬁcation process, our diving watches have been treated as part of diving

equipment since 2006 and tested and certiﬁed in accordance with European

diving equipment standards. This is unparalleled in the watch industry.

We have had selected pilot’s watches tested and certiﬁed to the technical

standard for pilot’s watches (TESTAF) by Aachen University of Applied

Sciences since 2012. The TESTAF, the result of a research project at the initiative

of Sinn Spezialuhren, ensures that a pilot’s watch meets all timekeeping

requirements during ﬂight operations in accordance with visual and/or

instrumental ﬂight regulations and is suitable for professional use.

DIAPAL is one of our most important technological developments, with oiling

no longer needed for the most important functions in the watch thanks to

the materials we select. This technology was ﬁrst used in 2001. With the aid

of TEGIMENT Technology, we achieve greatly increased scratch resistance

through surface hardening.
