Another watch we seldom see here and under appreciated IMHO. The new VC Harmony monopusher chronograph with VC's new in house chronograph movement seems to have taken all the lime light! Yes I love my Lange Datograph and my Montblanc Villeret Chronograph ...  

The design epitomises the word watch and this is why I feel it\'s a very appealing piece. I am not into chronos, but if I would, it would be very high up the list. Thanks for sharing Robin! Alex

Glad you like it too Cheers Robin

but, Robin you should also consider the VC "chronographe Historique" in Pt (37mm diameter case) or the new VC "cornes de vache" (38,5mm diameter case). Which one do you prefer on your wrist between these 3 VC models? Cheers, Patrickh

Esp the PT salmon dial! Good reminder Patrickh. Cheers Robin

Very fine looking watch - can definitely understand why you like it so much...

The dark side I sense in you my friend :p Cheers Robin

On whether the dark side is all bad... Seen a T-shirt some years back with the statement \'Welcome to the Dark Side, we have all the cookies\'

Some collectors feel the same as you my friend Cheers Robin

I have always found this dial to look 'cross-eyed.' The sub dials are too close to each other in too large of a case for the movement. The composition of the dial is not up to VC's generally timeless standard. With this watch, it is evident that they 'nee... 

Now that you mention I do feel the subdials are top near the center. The designer did a good job of trying to minimize that but once you see it , it sticks. Cheers Robin

Am I the only one that thinks he has seen one even though I\'m sure that I\'ve never seen it...

But on closer look they are all quite different Which ones you think are closest to this VC Traditionelle Chronograph? Cheers Robin

of the Historiques and Malte models that proceeded it. Thanks for the photos! Bill

I personally think the Historique is hard to beat. The Malte wears a tad big for me due to the longer lugs The Traditionelle is very classy yet modern Cheers Robin

I always though of the Traditionnelle Chronograph to be one of the finer manual chronographs from Switzerland. Not really comparable with a Datograph, but better compared with Patek's 5070 (same movement and almost half the price by now!) and with the 181... 

Vc now has their own in-house chronograph movement ! I am sure they will push it out very soon in new models in 2016 Thanks for the feedback Cheers Robin

timepiece. A lot of brands have the issue of tinkering with their aesthetic designs to accommodate a certain movement. Another next door neighbour to VC is also no stranger to this. In fact in their case it is much worse. But this Traditionelle Chronograp... 

And this Traditionelle Chronograph may be discontinued ? Good points my friend, thanks for your feedback Cheers Robin
