First entry:

Graham Chronofighter Oversize GMT. I'd be asking for the receipt if I got one of these in my stocking.

The best part is that they decided to write OVERSIZE on the dial, just in case someone looked at it and mistakenly thought it were the PETITE version.

I was just at a restaurant this afternoon and a guy showed me his previous model version of this. Big heavy solid bastard of a watch, still wouldn't own one but the trigger mechanism for the stopwatch, while silly to look at is highly effective.

sigh....🤨
