Today it's a 1970s racing chronograph from Nitella...custom rally strap made by WatchCrunch's own Chinshandcraft...

Chins handcrafted straps are excellent...great value and exactly as I requested in the design of the strap. This was a tough one because it needed to be a curved end strap so that it would perfectly fit the lugs of this 1970s vintage chronograph. They did a stellar job.

Here's the link to their WatchCrunch page...

Love that case and boxed crystal!

Has a great look. Reminds me of a Stratton that I have been tempted to pickup.

Exactly Lincoln - it's clear that @KyleSchut used these 1970s racing chronographs to design the Straton Speciale like this one...

I really like the unique design used here. It's refreshing to see something that is not a Rolex or designed to look like a Rolex. Not hating on that just really nice to see unique designs. 😎
