This video was tons of fun to make, chronographs are some of my favorite (thus the extensive and growing collection). Are there any great chronographs under $500 I might have missed? Let me know.

[@homiedclown19]

I recently purchased the Seagull 1963 40mm version. That watch is a stunner on the wrist. Absolutely gorgeous in the sunlight. Well worth the spend.

[@ChronometerCheck]

Seriously - great piece. Enjoy it.

[@AbuQamari]

Is that the silver panda Dan Henry also as well how do Chinese movements last for you?

[@JCsquared5]

Hey man! What strap is on your seagull 1963? Great vid.!

[@venezuelaboy773]

Where did you get the band on the timex?

[@gunstarhero8028]

Great video! I actually prefer 30 minute counters, simply because they're easier to read

[@ChronometerCheck]

That's a good point, I hadn't considered that. Thanks for watching.

[@thetimebombardier]

nice vid dude - great looking quiver of chronos - think my favourite is the bulova, yes I get it that it's big etc but i like the case body etc!!

[@ChronometerCheck]

Thank you very much bombardier - chronos are my favorite complication. I find them fun to use, and the subdials add an interesting flair. Agreed, the Bulova is sweet!

[@weasley2998]

Hi there, I am aware of the seagull and sugess but are there any other chronographs you can recomend under £200?

[@ChronometerCheck]

Mechanical? Not many, that's part of what makes them so great. Plenty of meca quartz though, check out Dan Henry

[@kabirh3626]

Soon as you started the seagull chronograph it jumped to a minute... is that a fault on your watch ?? Very strange

[@mica32j]

Grat little video. One watch missing is the inclusion of a citizen. How about the blue angel? Eco drive, atomic clock, world timer. Set and forget

[@kolinghosh6444]

Yup

[@Mick9188]

Wee need more videos

[@Mauitaoist]

I don't like the constant fidgeting around with the watch moving so fast you can't look at it I don't like the Blurred images I don't get what that's about

[@jabezhane]

If you worry about the Lunar Pilot size, then get the black version. Slap it on a bund strap...done!

[@ChronometerCheck]

They made a smaller one, finally!

[@jabezhane]

@@ChronometerCheck Ahhh so I see. I won't be buying! I like the large size. I'm not a marmoset. lol

[@blackimp4987]

my two hints and cents: 1. please show watches on your wrist, thou it's obviously not the same as ours it's useful 2. when you show the specification you blurr too much the image of the watches: it's useful during the video having some still images for some seconds of the watches it self, well in focus, so to examine the details or puttin on pause. Thank you. I've got into this interest a few days ago, I want to buy a chrono because i prefer a standalone object without touchscreen for chronometering: I've have a thin wrist and I prefer 39-40mm watches. it seems impossible finding decent chronographs with this size as the movements all producers mount features a completely nonsense 24h subdial for am/pm which reduces the chrono functionality. I don't understand why this stupid trend
