A big, chunky modern flieger style chrono for reveiw today. This one does so much right, from the screw link engineer, to the Viton gaskets throughout. It does a few things wrong though! The lume is terrible, but a few small tweaks and this woudl be epic. Cheers, Jody

Almost a perfect "Grab'n'Go" watch!! Tool Watch Co. Chronograph​

Watch Geek

Today we taking a look at a new model from Tool Watch Co. a brand i featured a couple times on the channe. From their AMA diver, to their Arctic Field, they have developed a unique design DNA that they implement on all their models, including this one. The Chronograph is powered by a Seiko VK64 Mecaquartz movement that gives the main seconds hand a mechanical looking sweep, while the mechanical reset gives the feel of a mechanical watch as well. Eliminating the main time seconds, means there is no quartz tick anywhere to be seen, while also creating a cleaner design. The dial is stunning, with full lume application, but done in a milky almost enamel looking way and I love it!! The size is pretty much perfect for my small 6,5" wrist and the all brushed finish makes it resist scratches better. I do like the countersunk bevel of the bezel that is highly polished but also protected, and the I only wish they included a sapphire, that in my opinion is the only "flaw" of the watch.
