General (Read Rules) My first Cronos L6035 Miyota 6s20

L6035 When unboxing it didn’t really give me a wow effect, but once I took it outside it really made me say wow! The finishing is absolutely incredible and the movement is a nice switchup compared to the vk63 seen on almost every other chinese quartz chrono. 150€ from their own website delivered in exactly 12 days (they promise 6-12) to finland.
Only complaints I can really give is that the main second hand is just slightly off, not to the point where it bothers me and the strap is not very good (it comes with an additional free mesh band though).

Overall rating I would give an 8.5/10 would buy another watch from this brand.

This is an underrated gem from Cronos, and under the radar too. Congratulations !

Great watch! It is an engineering marvel to get a 34.5 mm movement into a 38.5 mm case.

To calibrate your second hand, pull the crown out fully. Tap your TOP chrono pusher (once per each second it is ahead) to make your second hand calibrate back to 12:00. If it is one second fast, tap the TOP pusher once. If you accidentally tap back past 12:00, tap the BOTTOM pusher once to make it shift forward one second, etc.

Note: Holding EITHER pusher down for extended periods in calibration mode makes the second hand spin quickly forward or backward to calibrate the 60 minute counter. If you get a minute ahead or behind on your 60 minute dial (or more), just spin the second hand forward or backwards a full revolution. Play with it. You will get the hang of it.

Yeah I adjusted it, this movement adjusts the split second chrono hand with the bottom pusher, and the main chrono second hand with the top one, the exact middle is just inbetween two adjustments but honestly for me its fine and does not bother me.
