Cartier Santos 100 CHRONO OR NON-CHRONO?

[TESLA760]

i didnt know the chrono would be bigger,

my wrists are tiny - 6.1"
So i may have to avoid the chrono santos,

plus i always found the non-chrono more classy/stylish

- i am going for a quartz by the way

I've had both. Not sure how you would even consider the Chrono with your wrist size. Even the non Chrono may be an issue. The edges will over hang your wrist. Don't go Quartz. Terrible dial color etc. Spend the money and get an accurate one. But I would suggest you visit an AD and try it on first. I really doubt it will fit you.

Non chrono. In my opinion, chrono function on this kind of watch is a nonsense.

Don't underestimate the 21J movements...>>>

Thanks for the replies,

How much was your SW200-1 mianos?

That XXL would be wayyy too big on my 6" wrists Frankt, looks good though,

but aren't you losing time often as its 21J?
How often do you reset the time? do you wear it every day?
where did you buy that santos from? it looks a great quality rep for a 21J!

They are perfectly capable of long accurate service...The only downside in some folks mind is that the beat rate on most of them is 6/second vs 8 on the ETA clones...
I could care less!!
i got the watch @ 4 or 5 yrs ago from a guy in Singapore named Pamfried who's not active on the boards any longer.
That model can still be had from several of the TD's for @ $100...:maty:

IMO, the Chrono is a bit much for this model. Simply too bulky and busy. The non chrono is far more elegant.
