Although the Chronofighter Superlight Carbon series has a variety of colors and the engravings on the Chronofighter Graffitis sapphire glass are various, I recently reviewed it separately, but the Chronofighter Vintage is the most eclectic series of eclectic watches produced by Graham.
Considering the wrist in the comments mentioned above, I think we can all agree that the 44mm diameter of the Vintage series is more suitable for my sports wrist.
The pulsometer is the most beautiful vintage in Chronofighter Vintages. That means you can call a watch with mechanical attachments a beautiful watch. Although, I think the object has a certain inherent elegance, similar to the Transformers that are about to perform its task, or solid, online replica watch-shaped magnets that have been scattered on the cutlery drawer.
The whole idea of Chronofighter Vintage Pulsometer attracted me. Most people might laugh at the essence of a chronograph without a minute recorder. However, this will lose the essentials of the pulse meter, because the pulse meter is designed to absorb the pulse of you or others so that you can stroke their arteries. I have always been active. My father participated in marathons all over the world and played squash at the club level until he was in his 60s. He seemed to go all out. My father, he is very stoic. I think this attitude eliminated me.
Although, I have to say that I have never had the concept of continuous operation for hours. I actually seem to want to go where I want to go, which is why I often ride a bicycle. I am 50 years old and I am proud of my standing heart rate. My phone has a health app. The only part I use is the heart rate monitor, you can put your finger on the camera lens and you can accurately display the amplitude of the heart at any given moment. It is true. It’s like some kind of witchcraft or something. Anyway, I am a little addicted to it. I want to know what my heart rate is when I sit still (according to records, between 48 and 54), how high I can get when riding a bicycle (186 and I am about to pass out) and how fast I can From then on bpm recovery (about a minute, although my legs disagree). I have some friends and family members who are also obsessed with gadgets worn on their wrists or the number of steps on their phones.
For some people, they will walk around in the living room at night, trying to increase the count to 10,000, or any meaningless goals they set. I never understood this because I am sure that if you manage only 9878 steps a day instead of 10,000 steps, then you will not suddenly become obese. However, it is scientifically proven that low heart rate is for you. Therefore, I often check. So, for the sake of brevity, a long paragraph (oh, yes, this is a long paragraph, I’m sorry), I did achieve the intended purpose while using the Chronofighter Vintage Pulsometer, and I am very happy for it. I am grateful that not everyone is like me, but I am sure that there are enough fashion doctors in the world to make up for the remaining 249 of the 250 limited edition products.
In any case, I will recall the elegance and sophistication of the Pulsometer (within this other Chronofighters’ current company) and reiterate that this is a beautiful and desirable timepiece. In contrast, if you just love the aesthetics of a paired back, there may be an argument that is to let the second hand run indefinitely, and then turn the pulse meter into an ordinary three-hand watch. I realized that there is already a small dial with the running seconds hand at 3 o’clock, but it is too stern, so there is no mark, it can only really be used as an indicator that the movement is running. This bizarre sub-dial is purely elegant and is in complete harmony with the rest of the design philosophy, even if this very casual scale borders on small things.
You would think that the pulse meter would constantly conflict with yourself. Do I want to be a refined and elegant classic style timepiece, or a practical and practical tool watch with the best timing trigger mechanism in the world? Even the package works as an entity. The shameless hedonistic Chronofighter Vintage Pulsometer is one of the most perfect juxtapositions in the watch industry.
On the other hand, the Chronometer Vintage Nose Art series (arms, wrists) no matter where it is, it has those spectacular, slightly sexist and vivid “Nose Art” graphics, which has attracted people’s attention.
As the name suggests, nose art is a decorative painting on the fuselage of an airplane, usually on the front. This practice was strengthened by the Italians and Germans in the First World War. The most famous is the German mouth feature under the propeller. It eventually evolved into the more familiar shark mouth, which was used by the Luftwaffe and the Royal Air Force in World War II.
As mentioned earlier, the Caliber G1747 movement is similar to ETA Valjoux 7750 or similar general-purpose movements. This is not a bad thing, as the movement is known for its reliability and competitive quality/price ratio.
The rotor is decorated with Côtes de Genève patterns. The frequency of the balance is 28,800 vph (4Hz), and the movement contains 25 jewels. Assuming that the clockwork is fully wound, the Review fake watch will automatically run for 48 hours.
Graham provides numerous references in his catalog. However, it delicately uses several different watch cases and has chosen to expand its product portfolio through numerous dial animations. This is certainly not a criticism nor a weakness. Indeed, this is actually a power. By adopting this approach, the brand enjoys greater economies of scale, making it value for money. In addition, the composition of each model has been tried and tested, thereby reducing the risk of ownership issues.
Compared with other Graham models, the appearance of Chronofighter Vintage Bronze is almost mainstream except for the trigger conditions. The dial is both beautiful and offensive. Although the bronze case is large, it is not bulky and can be comfortably integrated with the wrist. In addition, the appearance of the watch case is stylish and presents a relaxed and casual nature. In short, this is the watch I really want to own.
