I had my eye on one of these. Anyone ever see one up close? Hard to find any non-stock vendor photos. Recommended? http://www.buyscheaper.com/buy-cheap-stuhrling-original-mens-33aa-332b61n-water-sports-collection-atlantis-acropolis-watch-special-price/

Serious-looking chrono there. I know very little about the brand and watch but you may want to PM Paxman (Mark) because I think he has one and he recently modded the hands on that skeleton watch of his. Hope this helps.

No offence but it seems to be a cheap chinese chrono with a 5030D from Ronda with "Chrono Swiss" written down the dial: Meaning that the movement is Swiss but the rest is just a "chrono from...Hell?" It's a 42mm diameter case and 100m water tight... Here's a "real life" pic who don't say much but that's the only one I found...http://a.newsgroup.la/thread-167047-1-1.html If you really are on quartz precision and in love of this tri-compax feature, I recommand the tough titanium version of CX 1000m: http://cgi.ebay.com/CX-Swiss-Military-Watch-Argonaut-1000-TQ-blue-/260662054424?pt=Wristwatches&hash=item3cb0ab4e18#ht_1318wt_1137 There, you are sure to have a quality, durable piece -Swiss Made- watch with the quartz precision who will be still worth some bucks after been used a while: Ask "BigSubJeff" or "BigRustyPig" who commented up my post, he have the huge unkillable auto version. Those watches withstand charges of elephant hordes... The Stührling will do like a cheap Invictus: Beeing worth peanuts after 3 days wearing and 5 hairlines and maybe break-down shortly.... Maybe better one CX instead of 3 Stührlings...? My opinion

Don't PM me... I do NOT have one of these. I don't know who Jeff is thinking of because I don't have a skeleton either...Inexpensive chrono. The brand is known for the dial work they produce from vintage machines. Mainly sold on that big TV shopping channel where the yahoos hawk this stuff!

I only have the Charmex SMW 20,000 ft that William says can withstand a charge of hordes of elephantsROF_Dog.gif because of its build characteristics. I'm not really into quartz but William has a point on Swiis-made quartz that you might want to consider. Jeff.
