Sinn Spezialuhren – 1800 S DAMASZENER Limited Edition NEW
Where functionality defines design and every little detail serves to
highlight the innovative technology at play, this is where
Sinn
Spezialuhren is at work. Since our establishment in
1961, we focused
continuously on high-quality mechanical watches combining a traditional
sense of quality with advanced solutions.

This has repeatedly resulted
in the use of totally new watchmaking materials. In
1995, we presented
the first watch made of 22-carat yellow gold with a material hardness
equal to that of stainless steel (
220 HV). In
2005,
German Submarine
Steel was used for the first time in diving watches.

Our
1800 S model made of
Damascus steel (ger.:
Damaszener Stahl)
seamlessly follows on from this by rendering the highly traditional
material appropriate for watch cases – without forsaking but rather
enhancing its special allure.

The watch thus displays a uniqueness that is immediately reflected in
its design and appearance. In order to bring the characteristics
textures of
Damascus steel to the fore – an organic pattern of
alternating bands of light and dark – the dial and central part of the
case are forged from a complete steel block rather than designed as
separate components, as is customary.

The result is rather remarkable:
for the
Damascus pattern on the dial continues across the entire case to
create a fascinating and impressive whole. Thanks to the use of
TEGIMENT Technology and the application of an additional Black Hard
Coating, we have succeeded in combining functionality with high quality.
The Black Hard Coating displays the pattern in a subtle, exquisite
light and ensures good readability and a masculine-looking watch.

Damascus steel has fascinated humankind for centuries. It gained its
legendary reputation above all in the making of swords, knives and
blades.
Damascus steel is a combination of at least two different types
of steel, layered to create the aforesaid surface design. The
traditional art of making
Damascus steel is very elaborate and portrays a
unique blend of craftsmanship and application. During production, the
different types of steel are layered and forge-welded together.

The piece is then forged, halved while in a glowing state and layered
together again. Experts refer to this as ‘folding’. By combining soft
and hard steels, a new kind of steel is created, one which displays
properties of both. In the final stage of production, the
Damascus
pattern is made visible through surface etching. The steels are
dissolved to varying extents by acid, thus forming the typical light and
dark nuances.

In this respect, it is important to know that the use of
Damascus steel
in the making of watch cases is particularly challenging with regard to
corrosion resistance. In order to find a professional solution, we adapt
recent developments in materials engineering. For the case of our
1800 S
DAMASZENER model, the different steels used are combined using powder
metallurgy and, in this sense, technically optimised.

Also during production of the
1800 S
DAMASZENER, the layered structure
is made visible through final surface etching, which gives the material
its characteristic appearance. Each watch thus becomes an extraordinary
and unique timepiece, as the flow of lines cannot be physically
manipulated.
