Show us your favorite chronograph!
Lately my focus has been set on chronographs. And this omega dynamic from the 90's ticks a lot of the boxes.
Which models are your favorites?

I have been eyeing this one too!
Produced only for one year, 1969, the Tissot Lemania 1277 😃👍.
Sinn 356

Well kept secret! Love it!
Sinn 356
I think only sinn can make a bracelet for a chronograph, that looks better on it than leather or nato.
My Rodania with the Landeron 248 such a sweat watch

I didn't start this discussion with the idea to fill my favorites on Chrono24 with chronographs, but oh well, thanks! My watchmaker would love to bring him such a treat for servicing :)
Favorite vintage
Favorite MechaQuartz
Favorite Hunk of Steel
Absolutely classic
Of the watches I personally own the Alpina 130 Pilot heritage is my favorite chrono. I’m definitely a sucker for a panda dial but when I am reaching for a watch that I think punches outside its weight-class (or at least appears to), I grab the Alpina. It’s not perfect and not for everyone, but I adore it.
here's a few chronographs I discovered recently:
Longines Diver Chronograph 7981-3
Breguet Type XXII 10hz, so it ticks 20 times per second
The longines will go very well with my red bb51 :D
The watch that AlbertaTime mentioned, the Sea-Gull 1963, is the only mechanical chronograph I own. Here's mine, on a Fluco ostrich strap:
A damn good deal for a hair over 200 euro, mine came from the NL-based Watchunique. Got it for over 2 years now, no issues, and the chrono pusher action is just great.
Love those, very classy designs.

That alpina looks really well! Nice blend of classic and modern design.
Chronographs are my favorite complication. Not sure that I could pick a favorite.
Hard to pick a favorite. But I really like this blue Breitling Transocean 38mm.

No seiko chrono??? They have quite the rich history in this department :)

@Pavlov The second from the left in the top row is a Seiko 7A28-7020 SPR010. Seiko described the 7A28 movement as "the worlds first analogue display quartz chronograph". The SPR007 version with the white dial was worn in the James Bond file "A View To A Kill"

indeed, I have missed it:)) very nice collection!
Here are the two chronographs that I own - both Timex, using the same modified Miyota cal.6s20 Quartz chrono movement.
I absolutely love these things. Theyre cheap, lightweight, attractive, and work really well. I use the waterbury chronograph as a dressed up option, and the mk1 mili-style chronograph as a casual beater. A great alternative to many of the more expensive mechaquartz or sea-gull Chinese mechanical chrons, while also being of generally decent quality, and not of Chinese origin (philippines, rather)
and they have INDIGLO! which is honestly really fucking cool and handy.
Zenith Daytona 16523!
You BALL'N!!!
This is a few of my favorite Chronograph in my collection🤙🏽
