I think my mind was just blown. No, really. I just opened an email I never thought I would receive. Sinn, who should need no intro on Worn & Wound (but if they do, check out our archive of posts on the brand and their watches) just released the most epic of LE watches that we?ve ever seen them release? The Sinn EZM 1.1.

The Sinn EZM 1, the original, is a highly sought after and collectible watch. One might even call it a legendary watch in its own right. First released in 1997, the EZM 1 was designed for use by German military and was first adopted by the ZUZ (Zentrale Unterstützungsgruppe Zoll), which is akin to a special police commando unit. Made of titanium, with a dial and bezel language that would define their EZM series, it was also powered by a modified version of the incredible Lemania 5100 chronograph. To keep the dial as clean, legible and purpose driven as possible, Sinn removed all of the sub-dials, keeping the central second and minute counters for chronograph purposes. It?s an aggressive watch with a great story and cool design, so as you could imagine, it quickly became a cult favorite amongst collectors and then after a relatively short lifespan, went out of production following the end of the 5100?s production.
