Why it scores as it does
Proportions and movement are computed from specs. Design details and functions are judged from the brand's official images. How we score
Lug-to-lug is neither published nor measured for one of the two watches, so there is not enough data to score.

What reviewers and owners say
Reviewers
From 6 reviews we read or watched, 2 of them with a watch supplied by the brand.
Reviewers say the watch looks close to the chronograph it follows and wears well at 40 mm. Five give a lug-to-lug of about 45 mm for the case, and three add that the fixed end links bring it to 50 to 51 mm. Reviewers describe a solid-link bracelet with fixed end links and a butterfly clasp, and two like the clasp. Two reviewers note that the bracelet edges are slightly sharp. Two point out that the watch has no date, although the movement could support one. Reviewers describe a Seiko VK63 movement, three of them as a mecha-quartz, with a snap-back reset to zero. Opinions on the lume differ, so it is not summarised. Price is the main reason given for recommending it.
