Even the manufacturers of professional military grade watches like Marathon and Stocker & Yale don't do camouflage the dial of their watches collection.This is make sense since legibility is essential when entering a war zone. Just like many divers watches that never touch the water outside the occasional swimming pool, many military inspired watches will never enter any real combat situation. This gives room to experiment for watch manufacturer with something might be impractical at real war, but will have a lot of fun when living in freedom. Graham Watch most certainly has taken this concept idea with the introduction of three different combat watches in Graham Chronofighter Military Watch, all doused in camouflage.
A brave decision by Graham, since a watch like this has to be built completely right otherwise you're risking your reputation of creating something of a joke. While all this time Graham does have a high reputation of creating something more seriously styled watches. That turn to be exactly the same with the Graham Chronofighter Military Watch. The 47mm diameter case size of the Chronofighter is utilize PVD coated, and fitted with an unique black ceramic bezel, which gives the sinister look like a member of the special forces have. A very nice detail touch is the signature chronograph trigger that crafted from carbon fiber material, to make the watch looks high tech yet rugged.
The Graham Chronofighter is crafted with three different option of camouflage dials, each one uses high quality silkscreen printing to apply them,the three option is Jungle green, Mountain grey or Sand beige. Each color does gives character and different look to the Chronofighter, which is further detailed with a matching colour rubber strap. Although the rubber strap is quite comfortable, we expecting to see this watch equipped with a rugged NATO style strap, just like the way military watch has to.
As we said before, it is not hard to make a camouflage watch that looks like a joke, but this Graham has actually also doing some serious stuff to it. It's dial is made with a telemeter scale in either miles or kilometers, where the first dial is calibrated at 77 degrees Fahrenheit and the second one at 25 degrees Celsius. This might surprised you but the speed of sound is not always constant but affects by temperature too. Graham sets the average temperature on earth and use it too calibrated its telemeter scale based on this. Most owners can use this to measure how far a thunder storm is away.But in the real situation,this feature is used to determine how far away an explosion is taking place.That makes the Graham Chronofighter Military Watch was intended for real military purpose.
