This is one my my favorite if not my favorite Chrono watch maker of this day and age. George J vonBurg is a awesome watch maker and his Chrono's IMHO are up there with the best of them today. Here are the specs on this baby. It is a limited edition of 100. Movement: Swiss Automatic Chronograph Mfg. and Caliber of Movement: Valjoux 7751 Crystal: Curved Sapphire Crystal Case Material: 316L Stainless Steel Case Diameter: 40mm Caseback: Exhibition Caseback w/ Sapphire Crystal Calendar: Month, Day window at 12 o'clock, Date Hand points to date on outer dial Water Resistant Depth: 100 meters | 330 feet Clasp Type: Tang Buckle Additional Features: True Moonphase Hand-made Crocodile Strap Came in a nice inner and outer box. It is as stated a true moonphase. The lume on these is very good. And the awesome 7751 is one of the best movements you can get on the market as far as I am concerned to. The 7750 is great this is better.       woohoo.gif |

Skip, that is one SWEET watch. I was eyeballing that one also. Its tractor season though and the $ for watches has been re-allocated for the big iron.  |

Thanks guys. Yea a George J vonBurg is something nice to own. Even when not a limited edition. For he only makes so many a quasi-limited production and he makes no more of that one configuration of watch. ;) |

But worth the wait for sure. ;) If for some crazy reason another 7751 at a great price is still hanging around come June I may bite there too. But a awesome watch for sure. :) |
