ChronoMaster used to sell them, I think. And they seem to have relaunched relatively recently.

Is that a thermometer?
Nope. Running seconds. It's a vertical representation of the horizontal roll. Probably.
I had one of these when they first came out mate (Neil at Chronomaster was their UK AD as someone mentioned above). It had was a 7750 movement, aledgedly modified, I think mine was called a 'Tendence' as they were all made to look like aircraft dials. These never had Martin Braun movements as they were intended to be the 'budget entry' models, as such quality was hit and miss - I had three before one continued to work, fortunately Neil was cool about it just swapping them out. Apparently the brand has now been revived with absolutely no link to Martin Braun, albeit the link was always tenuous at best. The dials look different if that's your thing, the lume was ok, reliability was average at best, but if you get one cheap enough they do look very different. I wouldn't have another though.
