The HUNTING WATCH 3006 is the first of Sinn's watches to feature the moon phase complication - this "moonlight display" as the German label calls it, has been purposefully positioned at 6 o’clock, with a luminous moon symbol to ensure it is easy to see, even in the dark.

The story behind this additional function: hunters not only need a clear, open view for a successful hunt; they also need the right light. Hunters refer to the right lighting conditions for stalking as good hunting light.

The German federal hunting law (Bundesjagdgesetz) prohibits the practice of hunting with the aid of artificial light sources (section 5, § 19, paragraph 5 a). In order to be able to hunt the authorised types of game at night-time, there must be adequate natural lighting from the moonlight.

The moonlight display on the HUNTING WATCH 3006 shows when the moon is shining bright enough to see and catch the game.
