What is the point of a chronograph....?

Does anyone actually use that feature of their watch?

Looks cool and the babes love a guy who has one. I have several and don't remember ever using the feature.

 

[OSUMBA2003]

For timing things.

Yes.

Do you find it easier to pull with a chronograph? I personally love a 3 hander!

Who cares? They just look cool!

For some reason, I don't feel like I wasted money.. ..or at least, not more than on any other watch I own..

A timer on a timer. Yah. I want.

My collection before I stupidly sold the 7750 CW and the Bulova 282 khz chrono with the red dial.

I love chronos.

I agree, I think they do look cool!

But do you not find they make it harder to read the time!

I actually don't think so, but even if, I prefer reading the time a split second slower on an interesting watch rather than a teeny-weeny bit faster on a boring watch.

Absolutely useful. I use it everyday to make coffee

 

[Atone]

chronos are THE WORST.

It'll help you to know when to flip the burgers and pull the fries out of the oil

He’s clearly been in mum’s basement too long. Add in Covid . . .

I mean...the reason I have a turtle, an skx and a bb58 is because I'm a deep sea diver. And I bought a Speedmaster because I'm going to do my first spacewalk soon. My Navitimer is for when I fly my biplane and need to calculate altitude... I thought that's why we buy them?????

Q. What is the point of a chronograph....?
A. Are you referring to the tips on the handset and subdial hands?

Q. Does anyone actually use that feature of their watch?
A. Yes, to time things.

Thanks, that reminds me I need to waste some money on a Poljot Traveller sometime soon.

Now see, you could use that chrono to time exactly how long it takes you to read the time on an interesting vs boring watch...

It's just for the cool feeling! Who actually dives to 10000 meters in their Rolex SeaDweller.
