It's here! Love the lines, size etc. Bracelet is omega worthy, and the dial is clean/simple.
Weight is great, solid... chrono pushers like butter. Gotta say, this will be my goto watch when I am feeling Bing Crosby.

Right now, I'd have to say Philip is a contender for chrono fo the year for the affordable 7750.. While I dig the deal some may have scored on the Accutron 7750, 200m, sapphire etc, the old school looks, and the absence of those features on this piece are quite dated/charming woohoo.gif I am thinking of a nice tan Rally strap...

Hey Canadajo, we're twins remember!! Yeah, I am hoping I can keep this one Ken... it's really nice on the wrist and a nice departure from the oversized watches I tend to go for. Really feels classic on the wrist and I feel like some character in some 60s flick when I wear it.

I am awaiting this Philip "blaze" set to come in any day now. This too, is a nice 7750 and the case is a bit chunkier. Should be cool.

That chrono does have cool looks for sure, EA!! Let's see if the chunker displaces it. I still think I prefer the BLAZE! :P

How easy would it be to upgrade the crystal to Sapphire?? It comes with a Hesalite crystal, same as omega speedy, basically shockproof, but much more prone to scratches. Easy to polish out with "Wenol" car polish however. Will see how it wears. I like the look of it...

I've never stumbled on this one from Philip, it is not a Blaze?. OK, which one?. Nick

It's the "Sunray" I don't know if they are still producing them. Very cool, and much more old school than the blaze. When I get the Blaze in a few days will post some side by side shots for comparison.
