So got me one of these last week and want to know if I've been lucky or if anyone else's experience with this watch is the same . After 1 week of daily wear , left in the box face up overnight it is averaging between -3 to +2 seconds a day .Well within COSC spec and just a superb thing to have on the wrist

Similar story with mine, I've had it a few years now and it's always bang on the money.

What colour did you go for?

Nice choice, same as mine which is currently on it's rubber strap after a while on the bracelet.



Enjoy yours, they're great watches.

Mine was still running at +2 secs/24hrs after 10 years.

The ceramic bezel is the one to get new, the older-style Alu bezel is great value used (+/- £500).

The chronograph movement is very high quality (column wheel) at its price point.

I liked mine.

The polished Centre links on the bracelet aren’t to everyone’s taste.

I bought a Hydroconquest years ago after reading a lengthy thread here on them.

It remains my favourite watch by far, remarkable value for money.

The new ones with the ceramic bezels can’t be beat at the price IMO…
