Been wearing this for few months already.. And I must say im much more inclined to smaller size watches... Much more versatile imo.. Also a get go watch. Plus the 72hrs pwr resrv makes it even better..

Still I love my Zero  :P

Loo, I don't remember seeing the button at the 8 o'clock position when I checked that watch at the MV gtg...
Excuse my ignorance but mind telling what is the function?  ???

That's because you were bitten by the spider and was under its venomous spell, like Ulysses and his hapless sailors coming under the spell of the Sirens. Terrence described the function perfectly, so I have nothing to add. Being not as technical as Terrence and yourself, I only use it as a 1-minute chronograph. Once I push the button, the second hand swings to 12 o'clock and continues to run, so I kind of know when the 1 minute is up (when the second hand rotates to the 12 o'clock position again).

Visited WWII this morning, got poisoned by EJ Aerious and the day ended being tapaued by Zentrix who wouldn't let me go by making me a good offer

Japanese engineering excellence combined with Teutonic bauhaus design….two of the most advanced engineering excellence centres I admire most

how to resist… this will be an additional daily tool watch wear

On the wrist
By itself..much nicer
Finely brushed case alternating with polished beveled edges
Well machined and brushed folding clasp with openers/pushers replicating the design of chrono pushers
Cal J890 a re-worked Seiko Cal 6S37, a highly rated integrated column wheel with circular pinion chrono used also by Seiko in its Flightmaster and TAG which renamed it Cal 1887

Hi Joseph,
That's a great looking chronograph.  :thumbsup: It's a unique piece that combines the best of Japanese and German horological engineering.
Excellent choice and congrats on your latest acquisition.

 :Cheers:

hi danny,
Thanks..looks like I'm always falling for those odd looking stuff like the SBGC003 with its big pushers and this with its one-of-a-kind pushers too.
Danger with such pieces is the novelty may wear off one day..:)
Altho I promised myself no more impulse buys, looks like I'm doing it all over again..
The combination is attractive tho…
Zentrix mentioned that you were at WWII yesterday. Told him I know you too and we got connected through the POLE….:)

Abel

I see you have found a new mutual 'friend' to share your interest.

Knowing you, I wonder 'we' are good enough to share your precious timepieces, hehe.

Keep it up man.

Please share with me....of your damage to your exp 1 (pm)....

I am almost a recovered watchaholic, but last checked shows only 70% recovered. How?
