Thank You Tony!  thankyou.gif

I don't have very many chronograph pieces, but this one from Hamilton is a real stunner!wowzer.gif

Interesting movement too, the Hamilton H31 caliber (modified Valjoux 7753), which Hamilton modified with a longer barrel for 60 hours of power reserve, reversed spiral for better accuracy, and a beautiful modified balance bridge which I've only seen pictures and animations of.

This is the first piece I've ever owned with a push button quick-set date (located at 10 on the case side of the Pan Europ).

You can check out the H31 caliber here:
