This is great as it isn't costing a fortune

Hey Guys,

Just picked up a new additon to the family and I am stoked as this new direction isn't costing too much.(In fact less than JJs pumpkin episode. )

Anyhow the newest member is a Tissot V8 Chronograph which is great looking watch fitted with an ivory coloured dial.



I also replaced the brown leather strap with a rubber strap as I intend using the watch at work and near water.

It has a nice contrast with the Seiko Yao,



Aaron

No problem JJ ,I just have the chrono running all the time.

Thanks CJ .Until the photo I never realised that the hands were blue,in every day use they look grey to black.(Much like a blued gun barrel.)

I agree. The blue hands look nice against the dial.

I do like that one. It has what I like in a watch. Easy to read hour/minute hands, the sweep & secondary timers are also easy to read, but they don't interfere with "regular" timekeeping viewing.
