Sinn x Asphaltgold 144 St Sa C.A.D.

One of the most successful sneaker boutiques in Europe and a traditional mechanical watch manufacturer: a good combination? Of course. The 144 St Sa C.A.D. model, which Asphaltgold and Sinn Spezialuhren have launched together, is a clear demonstration. 

The timepiece combines the best of both worlds and is contemporary and classic in equal measure. What also unites the two creators from Hessen: sneakers and watches are emotionally charged collector’s items – particularly when they have exclusivity, such as the special edition 144 St Sa C.A.D., which is limited to 100 pieces.

For the watch’s harmonious colour combination, both partners drew inspiration from iconic jerseys from US team sports. The dial of the 144 St Sa C.A.D. is creamy white, making this special edition the first 144 with a light-coloured dial. It is decorated with the Asphaltgold logo, which is also found on the rotor. Thanks to the sapphire crystal glass in front and back, it is wonderful to look at. The internal tachymeter scale also features the corporate slogan “Culture. Aesthetics. Dedication”. 

This look is the perfect stage for showcasing the black luminous indices as well as the hour, minute and second hands, complemented by the colour of the green chronograph hands. As a sports chronograph, the watch also features highperformance internal values, such as resistance to low pressure, water resistance and pressure resistance to 20 bar.

Neither sneakers nor watches are constantly on the move. Which is why the high-quality storage case provides a safe retreat for the 144 St Sa C.A.D. Until it’s time to get going again.
