What $23 gets you.

What $23 gets you.

Well worth it for that price.
It is still possible to time minutes and seconds with them

The one thing that kinda annoys me with these quartzie chrono reps is that if I were building it I would freeze that dial @3 on zero !!
All it does is inanely track around with the hour hand, therefore, on many of the watches it is an instant and easily visible tell.
I know for a fact some guys simply won't buy them because of that.

Doesn't really bother me, us watch guys excepted I don't believe there is many folks even remotely interested in what is on someones wrist, for me it's just my OCD shit tells me it's nae proper like

I have a few Chronos with quartzie in them, including a Breitling Chronomat and Omega Speedy Apollo XI, and a just dispatched an AP ROO.

Pretty thing.

Been out all day at my Fleet Owners sorting out a 2020 Vito Metris Minibus that they recently screwed up, managed to bill him a nice lump of cash which more than paid for this little gem that arrived today

I have plans for a couple of small mods to it, Red Centre Sec Hand, Red Subdial Hands and freeze the @3 hand at point zero.
IRL and considering I regularly spend more than it's meagre price tag on a round of drinks, it is such a nice piece I'll likely sub this job out to a pro watchmaker as I really like it.

It's quite easy on the moonswatch reps at least. Remove a gear and dial dot the pinion wheel down

Thanks
I might take a look see and give it a shot if it looks easy enough for my arthritic sossidge fingers

I bought one of those for my daughter. It is a great little watch.

In today. Very impressive build quality VK quartz. Basically the same case and movement as the Furlan Marri quartz chrono for a tenth the price. Got it for $53 on ALI.
