I guess this thread shall apply to chronos from either the european makers or japanese makers, hence shall post to this section.
I was arranging my collection days ago, found some of the ETA chronos had stopped ticking. Went to change the batts, it works again, lucky that the dead batteries doesn't leak. Otherwise would be up lorry lor...
Note that Renata powered ETA movement batteries are also up in price as well as the Swiss movements, it cost me now $9 to change per piece.
The candidates
WENGER SAK dual tome chrono
very weak lume probably to the age of the watch
TISSOT 1853 chrono
Not so well decorated lume
TISSOT MOTO GP L.E
Much better decorated lume
More pics shall follow... if i can get some time... Other chronos in my collection are approx. 20pc Swatch, 2x Charles Jordan, 1x UNIVERSITY of OXFORD- jap.
