Sinn 717 receives award at the German Design Award 2022

Sinn Spezialuhren is honoured with the German Design Award: “Excellent Product Design 2022”. The 717 receives the award that the highly esteemed panel of judges bestows only on products demonstrating a superb design.

The Sinn Spezialuhren brand has always stayed true to its roots. Because of that a cockpit clock from the late 1970s provided inspiration for this model 717. The challenge in this case was to put the classic cockpit watch functions in a wrist watch format. This is ensured by SINN technologies and also the in-house chronograph movement SZ01. The special bezel construction, which is operated along with the sapphire from the outer diameter, still guarantees waterproofness to 20 bar. The jury honours the conceptual design of the 717 with the award „Excellent Product Design 2022“ for „combining the past with the future in the most stylish way and perfectly embodying the brand DNA of Sinn Spezialuhren down to the last detail.“ (excerpt jury statement) „We are really pleased that the 717 received this award – it confirms our principle of developing and designing watches in strict conformity with the relevant requirements”, comments Lothar Schmidt, qualified engineer, owner of Sinn Spezialuhren.
