kicking a dead horse, my idea for a 17c mission timer

[jtbold]

Love this lemania, though I figure they are about to be sued by Omega for using an arrow.

:D Guess they are about to be sued. Very good looking watch!

I looked at the 17c and the 9:00 dial is the hour counter for the chrono, so the constant second and the 1/10 second would be lost..

Both Lemania and Omega are owned by Swatch. :P :roll:

No problem, they'll just sue themselves!

And then increase the price of their watches to cover their costs............. :twisted:


Actually, I like the countdown bezel on that Lamania. If Eddie were to put one on the 17-C it'd be perfect. :)

I think this is the same solution as the EZM-1's Mission Timer (MT) setup.

It also has neither an hour totalizer nor a constant seconds for the sake of clarity.

Of course, being a mechanical movement, it is missing a 1/10th seconds totalizer by rights.

The Tutima Commando retains the hour totaliser which I feel is more useful than running secs.

The Lemania above would have been better if it had a 12H bezel to increase the usefulness of the chrono.


Not my rendering.

I am no longer sure if this project is still active.

If it's active, I would buy at least two.

The normal 17C hasn't left my wrist for a while now except to shower... I'd definitely go for the 17C-MT.
