    The new Precisionist Chronograph shares the original collection’s remarkable technology, maintaining accuracy globally to within ten seconds a year and expanding the Precisionist’s capabilities with an extraordinarily precise chronograph offering timing to the thousandth of a second over a twelve-hour timeframe. Design teams from Bulova worked with the support of engineers from Citizen Watch Company (Japan), Ltd., dedicating themselves to extending the achievement of the breakthrough Precisionist movement. Technical standards were validated at every step of the development process, with verification set to continue throughout production.

    The design of this unique watch maintains the elegance of the original Precisionist styles, including the signature continuously sweeping second hand. Using the intricate, architectural case of the original Bulova Precisionist Champlain Collection, a proven retail success, the Precisionist Chronograph includes the multi-layer dimensional dial characteristic of all Precisionist models, with the addition of four subdials – a dual-duty 1/10- and 1/100-second counter, hour and minute measures, and a distinctive 1/1,000-second track with retrograde indicator. The continuously sweeping second hand measures seconds in chronograph timing mode. This intricacy makes extraordinarily precise timing easy and logical. Users simply push the button at 8 o’clock to move into chronograph timing mode, then push the button at 2 o’clock to begin up to twelve hours of chronograph measurement. At the desired interval, another push of the 2 o’clock button gives separate, easy to read measurements of hours, minutes, seconds, 1/10-seconds, 1/100-seconds and 1/1,000-seconds.

    That does look good....great now I'm tempted.

    I just wanted to comment say I do love this thread. It has really opened my eyes to watches I would have otherwise never heard of or considered. Great job and when I'm finally settle financially (In the process of relocating) I'll surely be going through this thread to see if something catches my eye.
