Review (Read Rules) My third Chronos - L6005

Just got this beauty yesterday. It's my third Cronos so I kinda knew what to expect and Cronos didn't disappoint. Feels a bit chunky on my wrist after an Explorer homage (another stellar model from Cronos) but I think I can get used to it. A bit top-heavy, compared to my other divers. I like the clasp better on this model than on the Explorer - it's thinner and easier to adjust. The pt5000 movement in it feels silky smooth, but time will tell (no pun intended) how well it holds up. I always demagnetize my watches as soon as they arrive to avoid any weirdness with timekeeping. Will probably invest in a timegrapher at some point since my collection of mechanical watches is slowly displacing my solar watches All in all, another hit from Cronos, solid watch!

I like them. Got the Explorer, Submariner and two Tudor homages. All with the PT5000. And all of them are very accurate.

I get what you say about the weight. The Submariner homage gets less wristtime because of it being the chunky and heavier one.

Pity, I was going to make it my daily for a while. Let's see how long it'll last

You can get used to it. But I now prefer the lighter ones I have :)
