For specs and info on this see http://www.zinexwatch.com/CHRONOGRAPHS.html

This is loaded with the China 7750 clone. They are getting better. Even has the wobble but not to the full extent of the Eta Val. 7750.

At 47mm sits on my wrist well. Nice heavy case. Not bad at all for a non-Swiss. If they keep this up these will be taking up the slack allot more for the economic buyer when the Swiss, German and Japan made watches prices go up more.

But not to bad at all for the price point these are in. Can be worn semi-dressy or shorts and T-shirt.

But what I like is I can have a chrono on the wrist that I can use for daily wear too for chores and such. LOL

Something to tie me over while waiting on these other watches to come in. Thanks Joe if your looking in. LOL ;)

Well not marked as built in Germany so Cherman would fit I guess. :D

Same classification type as my SUG Fuse I'd say. Which is a well built watch too for the price point.

That's got a real nice look to it. The logo still looks too much like the Zeno Watch Basel logo imho. Nevertheless a cool piece you can hammer on and look good while doing so. Enjoy it Dawg! smile8.gif

LOL yea. :D But why should someone not do a homage to Zeno Basel too. That is a watch brand I feel is greatly underated for a Swiss watch. I love all 3 of mine allot. This Summer may have to add a 4th. I hear a whisper from a 49mm I think. LOL :cool:
