Which chronograph has the nicest pusher feel?
OK I have come to realize that I am a bit of a pusher snob. I like a pusher that feels soft and luxurious when I engage it. . My favorite pusher to date was the Vacheron overseas 49150 chronograph. That one felt great . My least favorite would have to be the omega speedy pro, although I do admit that the dark side of the moon feels a bit nicer. I would put the Rolex daytona somewhere below the vacheron but much higher than a speedmaster.
I have yet to have the pleasure of trying a patek chrono or ALS. Am I alone in this fetish or does anyone else understand me?!!? What is your favorite chrono pusher? |

I am a chronograph guy and Ii have the ALS datograph and it is by far the smoothest of any watch I have tried. I have the VC overseas and no comparison.

For me its the AP ROO 44mm. Its super smooth, plus the pusher shape makes using the chronograph easier than any other watch I personally own or have used. |

if it was me and i wanted a 39mm watch i would just get the new ALS 1815 chrono in black they just released for a much lower price. Its basically the dato without the date. I prefer 41mm so its an easy choice for me as its the only option.

Lange 1815 chrono, but I suspect it's the same feeling as the Datograph.

You know the G-Shock guys are circling the thread right? I have a Speedmaster, a Sinn 203(two actually) and both are clunky at best. I feel like I've broken something every time I push them. As an added bonus the Sinn's are screw down.
