That is a great looking watch Oscar looks to be very well done for the JTV price point or the list price. Big congrats buddy. ;)

I had my eye on the white with blue hands and accents. Wish I had seen your pic, it shows the watch off much better than the stock photo on JTV. Good grabhearteyes.gif

One of these days I'm going to realize that I am lost without a Chrono and Tach complication. Another day and I'll understand the fancy WIS jargon that Oagy uses to describe his collection. When those days come, I'm gonna need an intervention and a 12 step program. As of now, I'm in control of my addiction so get off my back!

Seems like a nice pick-up Oagaspar. I imagine that the bracelet alone is worth nearly the bill. At 47 X 16, I think I'd have to alter my shirts to handle that puck.

Ok that's a big watch, I did not expect 16mm thick.  I like that O and concrat's on the pic up.  O when you get a chance how about a few more wrist shots.....?   the dial layout looks really kewl.

Kinda BRM ishhand6.gif.......so what is the consenses...does a Tachy bezel serve a purpose on a non Chrono watch? I was told you still can determine elapsed time without the chrono function. Not that I have any interest in timing anything:D Anybody verify?????

so far without going into +/- seconds the watch is running spot on in the 1st 24hr period off the wrist.....I'll get more exact timing in a couple days on the wrist.....hand6.gifI'm not sure how the tachy works without the chrono as far as measuring speed but distance can be measured using the second hand and the tachy....btw this watch is made by Croton and is their sport line for JTVyourock.gif
