Dan Henry's 1972 Alarm Chronograph
Here is one for all of you Dan Henry fans, and everyone else too guys.
The new 1972 Alarm Chronograph is limited to 28 numbered watches made
for the Wind-Up Watch Show. But will have a regular run of 1,972 too. With
details including a 41mm stainless steel case, or PVD steel case, 100m WR,
sapphire crystal, black dials with eye-catching accents, along with luminous
markers, and hands, a quartz movement, and nice bracelet.

Re: Dan Henry's 1972 Alarm Chronograph
So, it's a simultaneous ripoff of multiple watches. Are some of those ripoff's as well then? I'm always curious where the line is drawn for some folks.
I think the Worn & Worn article intro does a nice job of setting the stage for these: https://wornandwound.com/first-look-dan ... ronograph/ . No longer produced by anyone today and it's very clear that this isn't an original idea.
Personally I like the black one, not sure I'd buy it or that it would stick if I did

Re: Dan Henry's 1972 Alarm Chronograph
Honestly no idea. Since it is according to how the manufacture did the black coating. On know on the Aegir I had the black finish took a beating with no issues.jeckyll wrote: ↑Sun Dec 02, 2018 11:32 amI like the black one, but always wonder how that bracelet would look after a few months of wearing it ... probably scratched all to helltoxicavenger wrote: ↑Sun Dec 02, 2018 11:13 amthe black one look the best all the way. who would have guessedJoeprez wrote: ↑Sun Dec 02, 2018 9:57 amAny preference between the two?

Re: Dan Henry's 1972 Alarm Chronograph
Yeah, that makes sense. Most of my bracelets show a lot of scratches and marks though two of them are Ti so probably softer. I'd be worried, still at $350 new and who knows what used, I may still pick one up if I get a chance to check it out. Not a lot of moneytoxicavenger wrote: ↑Sun Dec 02, 2018 12:03 pm<snip>
