The first chronograph I ever fell for was a Tissot Seastar Navigator. Powered by a Valjoux 7734, it was one of the many 2-register date-at-6 chronographs floating around in the late 60s and early 70s.

I suppose, given that, this was inevitable.

While I love the Chilluminati (date at 9) 2-register chronographs we’ve made, I’ve found myself more and more wanting a simple panda-ish date-at-6 chrono, something classic and easy. Enter the Standard.

It’s a v stripped-down watch: no telemeter/tachy/decimeter/pulsations scale, no name, just the simplest, most classic 2-register we could make. Same as always: we order the best parts we can get from around the world and everything’s assembled here in northeast Indiana.
