    Another TZ account breach? [Although I'd have thought they'd advertise an expensive watch on SC, assuming they can match Andy's photography skills, rather than push some random watch brand ... ]

    That’s a fair point it is pretty out of character…

    They look a bit like Skagen meets Christopher Ward to me...

    They look good, Andy. What's the build quality like?

    Pretty good.

    The Pioneer has a bit more weight to it, so subjectively just feels more substantial.

    Love the modern-minimalist aesthetic, especially as applied to the chrono

    That Chrono is very nice, well done :)

    I really like those, look good to me and a decent price too.

    Perhaps I’m missing something - they look like something you’d buy in Marks & Spencer for £29.99?!?

    I'll be honest, I can't see what differentiates these from any other generic budget quartz from M&S, Next etc. which is why a few including me immediately thought it was an account hack!

    Dials are too big for the movement, judging by the date windows.

    My wife bought a cheap watch from somewhere like Next or M&S a few years ago - the type that looks like a chronograph complete with fake buttons until you realise the dials show the date and the day of the week, with no chrono function. I’d swear it had the exact same ‘punched from a flat piece of metal’ hands as on the chrono in this thread. (Apologies to the OP genuinely, I’m just amazed you’ve posted about such generic ‘meh’ that’s been on the market with a similar look for a decade or more - mostly available from supermarkets)

    Each to their own.

    I’m happy with my purchases.
