I'm fairly new to this 'obsession' with buying watches (slippery slope, I was warned).

Anyway I've seen this picture and love the look of this watch:


Can anyone provide me with some information about this watch please?

Thanks cool

It's a Mk2 based on the Steve McQueen Rolex Explorer. You can pick up Chronotac versions for about £100 new (there's one on TZ for about £60).

Ok thanks. I have just looked but couldn't find it. Could you send me a link please?

Oops. Got confused there. I think it was there a couple of days ago but has gone.

These watches seem to be elusive. I can't find one for sale anywhere! frown

Steinhart also offer a homage to the Rolex, bit more pricey than the previously mentioned but it'd be a quality piece if their GMT Ocean 1 which I have is anything to go by.

I'm not sure where people buy new Chronotacs so I can't help, sorry.
