 That's a good write-up, Graham. No need to be bashful about the Swatch. I respect the brand very much and it's market niche startegy is something that always amazes me. Swatch stands for lots of quality, even on quartz. My regulator is a Swatch quartziesubtlelaugh.gif, by the way and the choice is because it was Swatch. I could have gone Seiko or Citizen but I chose Swatch to be the pacer of my entire collection.

I saw 3 chrono models at the AD recently and honestly, I found them to be too light. No question about the movement, as for sure it has an impeccable track record ---- personally, I would have gone for more weight. I agree with the rest. Maybe the watch's marketability would have improved had it been on steel.

Big congrats, amigo! hand6.gif
