Here are tree of mine. Not super-rare but also not totally mainstreem and quite affordable IMO.

That Yema is quite Autavia-like - not bad.

This one is so far off the beaten path that you can't even see the faint trail leading to the path. 😜

I very much like the dial - it is in wonderful condition. Inside beats the famous Baumgartner 67x movement, a chrono known for its rudimentary design and crude execution. Quirky -no doubt about it!

Here is an unusual chronograph concept: besides the chronograph second hand also the minute counter hand is from the center - hence the name of the watch Mido "Multicenter chronograph"

enjoy!

May I join in the fun? It is not a chronograph, but still good for timing. A 1966 rattrapante timer.

Some great Chronographs here!

Omega Speedmaster Mark 4.5

I haven't seen this one posted here, or any other Chrono, for that matter, that has this party trick.



Not to mention having 7 hands + day date.

I think there used to be a German watchmaker that altered the case shell into a conventional lugged case - very interesting.
