Forgive me Father for I have Sinn’d! I allowed a new Sinn model to slip right under my radar, but here it is now – a new variant of Sinn’s baby U50 with a motherly face.
Introducing the diver’s watch made of the severest, German Submarine Steel with the gentlest mother-of-pearl dial from the heart of the sea.
Each of Sinn’s 500 piece Limited Edition U50 diver’s watches is uniquely numbered and boasts a light-reflecting dial that creates an exciting interplay of color and light. 
We’ve seen Sinn’s harsh dial treatment in the U1 DS with GRINDED dial now it’s time to see a softer side of the U series with an iridescent finish thanks to shimmering black mother-of-pearl. 
Mother-of-pearl and diver’s watches typically go hand in hand – we’ve seen our fair share of them some better than others but few have created such a stark and appealing contrast as seen here. 
Because mother-of-pearl is a naturally occurring product, each of the 500 dials in the series is utterly unique contrasting beautifully with the uniformity of Sinn’s sleek Black Hard Coating.
And because this is a U50, the timepiece is also equipped with a slew of specialist technical dive watch features. For example, the case and crown are made of high-strength German Submarine Steel.
Securely housed in the watch’s 41mm in diameter German Sub-Steel case is a Swiss engine, a Sellita SW300-1 self-winding mechanism with 25 jewels, a beat-rate of 28,800 semi-oscillations per hour – and all with anti-magnetic shielding as per DIN 8309. 
In addition to this, the classification company DNV has both verified and certified the watch’s pressure resistance to a diving depth of 500 meters = 50 bar as well as temperature-resistance and functionality in accordance with the EU’s diving equipment standards. 
The new Sinn U50 S Mother-of-Pearl S can be equipped with a choice of 3x silicon strap options that include: black, red or white or on a Black Hard Coating steel link bracelet. MSRP is €2,750 (silicon) or s€2,840 (bracelet). 
Thoughts? This dive watch has it all – beauty and brawn, neatly packaged in a 41mm, 500m case. As for mother-of-pearl I can usually take or leave it but in this execution it works so well that I’d say it’s the perfect accompaniment to Sinn’s sub-sized, sub-steel diver.
But what do you think?
