my phone doesn't deal with low light at all well but you can just about make out a big hedgie!

4 new models from Sinn!

2 new 104s, both with sunburst dials, one in blue and the other in a rather fetching anthracite

A new U1, this time with a blue dial in a similar shade to the T1/T2 B

And most interestingly, a new limited edition model with case and dial made from tegimented damascus steel, the 1800!

I mean seriously, look at this fucker right here

Couldn't even be bothered to get a decent logo made up, just a few seconds in paint and "give money plx"

OOOH! OOOH! OOOH! EXCITED!

So it's the time of year where I keep an eye out for christmas presents for people so I can get everything done early and gloat at all the people panicking a week before christmas
